In this chapter, the authors discuss the question of the peripheral motor system as a source of variation in speech production. Through examination of two case studies, one looking at the production of velar stops, the other at intrinsic f0 effects on vowel height and consonant voicing, they argue that motor system effects are deeply integrated into representations driving speech planning, due to speakers' (controlled) enhancement of automatic effects.
