OpenSLR pages for MUSAN, LibriTTS, Hi-Fi TTS and LibriTTS-R each state CC BY 4.0 at page level (byte-identical to the producer pins).

OpenSLR pages for MUSAN, LibriTTS, Hi-Fi TTS and LibriTTS-R each state CC BY 4.0 at page level (byte-identical to the producer pins).

Curator qualifications: Curator addition: for MUSAN the page-level CC BY 4.0 is not the whole story; the MUSAN paper says each subdirectory has a LICENSE file mapping every WAV to its own licence (Creative Commons variants or US public domain, commercial-use content only) with attribution text. Per-file attribution therefore applies; the per-file LICENSE files were not downloaded (inside the 11 GB archive). Valentini DataShare item and bitstream (S99, S100) not refetched. DEMAND/VCTK component terms not checked here (cycle-1 noted a DEMAND mismatch). Page and paper reading only; no dataset downloaded.

Limitations: Page and paper reading only; no dataset downloaded.

Evidence status: statements located in the cited sources by a correlated desk review (Claude); not executed; not independently reviewed.
