In this contribution, we present the recent improvements of the Spanish version of the MULTIVOX text-to-speech system [1,2]. First the adaptation of the system to the Spanish version is considered in the framework of MULTIVOX. Then a new fast linguistic module for Spanish is probed to improve the naturalness of the synthetic speech. This result validates the methodology for prosodic modelling and encourage us for future improvements.
