1. A transition mode device for use in a predictive-type sound signal codec for producing a transition mode excitation replacing an adaptive codebook excitation in a transition frame and/or at least one frame following the transition in the sound signal, comprising:

  • an input for receiving a codebook index; and

    a transition mode codebook for generating a set of codevectors independent from past excitation, the transition mode codebook being responsive to the codebook index for generating, in the transition frame and/or the at least one frame following the transition, one of the codevectors of the set corresponding to said transition mode excitation;

    wherein the transition mode codebook comprises a codebook of glottal impulse shapes.
