My aim is to morph two sounds (e.g., light-right) so that they become an ambiguous sound (i.e., sometimes you'll hear it as 'right', sometimes 'light').

I have been practicing with a MATLAB based software called STRAIGHT-legacy and have had some success with the coding (non-GUI) side of it. However, there is very limited guidance available online, and I would like some more guidance:

Q1. Preferably, some UG students can use the GUI version of the software. From reading Hideki Kawahara's (2009) manual, this can be done by typing “TandemSTRAIGHThandler” in the Matlab command window (after setting path to src). However, this does not work. Since the manual was written some time ago, I'm wondering if the GUI for morphing is still operational, or has it been phased out? If anyone is still using it successfully, I'd appreciate if you can let me know how you activate it (i.e., which version of STRAIGHT did you download, and what version of MATLAB do you use?)

Q2. There are still some minor aspects of the coding interface I have trouble with, too. If anyone has experience of using STRAIGHT for morphing, please get in touch.

Many thanks,

Ryan
