The contribution of this work is an interactive visualisation tool, called Starmap 1 to help TTS developers navigate through thousands of audio files of utterances originating from a target domain, and select evaluation materials that are varied, and at the same time representative of the most important communicative acts, pragmatic and expressive functions the speaker needs to perform in that domain.
a significant majority of listeners preferred the TCC voice for the solo-host podcast domain over the TGD voice (p 0.001).
