To modify the temporal scale of recorded speech, relative stress and relative speaking rate terms are computed for individual sections, or frames, of the speech. These terms are then combined into a single value denoted as audio tension. For a nominal time-scale modification rate, the audio tension is employed to adjust the modification rate of the individual frames of speech in a non-uniform manner, relative to one another. With this approach, compressed speech can be reproduced at a relatively fast rate, while remaining intelligible to the listener.

Pour modifier l'échelle temporelle d'un discours enregistré, les termes de l'accentuation relative et de la vitesse de parole relative sont calculés pour des sections individuelles ou des blocs individuels du discours. Ces termes sont ensuite combinés en une seule valeur, appelée tension audio. Pour une vitesse de modification nominale de l'échelle du temps, cette tension audio est utilisée pour ajuster la vitesse de modification des blocs individuels du discours de façon non uniforme, les uns par rapport aux autres. Grâce à cette approche, un discours comprimé peut être reproduit à une vitesse relativement élevée, tout en restant intelligible pour l'auditeur.
