1. A computer-implemented method, comprising:
receiving a first user input corresponding to a characteristic of speech;
determining, using the first user input, first data representing the characteristic;
associating the first data with a user profile;
after associating the first data with the user profile, receiving a second user input associated with the user profile;
determining output data responsive to the second user input; and
performing speech synthesis processing using the first data and the output data to determine synthesized speech data responsive to the second user input and corresponding to the characteristic.
