Thank you for the suggestion and your impression.
I agree, a better example would highlight it better.
My first impression of the unnatural recording was that it must be that way to make it easier to get a good result, but then the result doesn't sound natural either. I think a lot of this is the drawn out uterrances made the speaker vary their pitch/cadence a lot more than usual. Once edited to remove the gap, the sudden change is very noticeable.
I don't think that's due to your software, but just a fact of the unnatural source audio. I think a different, more realistic source audio could let you have a really awesome example, without it being disingenuous or not representative of real-world results.
Thanks for jumping into the ring and answering questions in here!
