Abstract(in English) This study focuses on the difference in the audibility between recorded voice and synthesized voice uttered by the same speaker. In this research, recorded voices and synthesized voices are allocated to a three-dimensional space by INDSCAL which is an analysis method of MDS in order to investigate the acoustic features which are related to the difference in the audibility between recorded voice and synthesized voice. As a result, spectral roll-off and spectral contrast are related to the discrimination if speakers of recorded voice and synthesized voice with same pitch are same or different. Moreover, fundamental frequency is also related to the discrimination if speakers of recorded voice and synthesized voice with different pitch are same or different.
