> This function synthesizes a (speech) signal based on a LPC (linear-
> predictive coding) model of the signal. The LPC coefficients are a
> short-time measure of the speech signal which describe the signal as the
> output of an all-pole filter. This all-pole filter provides a good
> description of the speech articulators; thus LPC analysis is often used in
> speech recognition and speech coding systems. The LPC analysis is done
> using the proclpc routine. This routine can be used to verify that the
> LPC analysis produces the correct answer, or as a synthesis stage after
> first modifying the LPC model.
>
> The results of LPC analysis are a new representation of the signal
> s(n) = G e(n) - sum from 1 to L a(i)s(n-i)
> where s(n) is the original data. a(i) and e(n) are the outputs of the LPC
> analysis with a(i) representing the LPC model. The e(n) term represents
> either the speech source's excitation, or the residual: the details of the
> signal that are not captured by the LPC coefficients. The G factor is a
> gain term.
>
> LPC synthesis produces a monaural sound vector (synWave) which is
> sampled at a sampling rate of "sr". The following parameters are mandatory
> aCoeff - The LPC analysis results, a(i). One column of L+1 numbers for each
> frame of data. The number of rows of aCoeff determines L.
> source - The LPC residual, e(n). One column of sr*fs samples representing
> the excitation or residual of the LPC filter.
> G - The LPC gain for each frame.
>
> The following parameters are optional and default to the indicated values.
> fr - Frame time increment, in ms. The LPC analysis is done starting every
> fr ms in time. Defaults to 20ms (50 LPC vectors a second)
> fs - Frame size in ms. The LPC analysis is done by windowing the speech
> data with a rectangular window that is fs ms long. Defaults to 30ms
> preemp - This variable is the epsilon in a digital one-zero filter which
> serves to preemphasize the speech signal and compensate for the 6dB
> per octave rolloff in the radiation function. Defaults to .9378.
