+## Customization of sound source files
+
+* You need [Espeakedit](http://espeak.sourceforge.net/editor.html) to change sound parameters of vowel definition files.
+
+On Debian/Ubuntu based systems you can install it with command:
+
+```
+sudo apt-get install espeakedit
+```
+
+If your 64-bit Linux system doesn't have this package, you can download just compiled binary file from
+[here](https://github.com/valdisvi/espeak-ng-espeakedit/blob/master/bin/espeakedit?raw=true).
+
+To edit *.wav files for sonorant/consonant phonemes you may also need:
+
+* [Audacity](https://www.audacityteam.org/) can be used as sound editor for consonant sounds (*.wav) files.
+Audacity may be also used to analyse [sound spectrum](https://manual.audacityteam.org/man/spectrogram_view.html)
+(use maximum window size to see harmonics clearly).
+
+On Debian/Ubuntu based systems you can install it with command:
+
+```
+sudo apt-get install audacity
+```
+
+* [Praat](http://www.fon.hum.uva.nl/praat/) can be used to do more detailed analysis of recorded voice files.
+
+On Debian/Ubuntu based systems you can install it with command:
+
+```
+sudo apt-get install praat
+```
+
+`Praat` can also provide initial settings for vowel definitions to `espeakedit`.
