The spectrogram is a useful tool for visual quality comparison of different types of emotional synthetic speech. This paper is focused on application of this method to evaluation of sentences after spectral and prosodic modifications for emotional speech conversion. Performed experiments with spectrogram evaluation for several male and female speakers and four emotional states (joy, sadness, anger, neutral state) are also described.
