Hi Jiri - Greg does a great job explaining about the bounce tool. Another way is to stretch out that sound. It's a lot harder to stretch on stop sounds like /p/, /b/, /t/ and /d/, but it can be done. However, when you stretch them out, it tends to warp the sounds into ones that are easier to stretch. For example, if you stretch the /d/, it turns into a /z/. If you stretch the /t/, it turns into an /s/. You had specifically mentioned the "tr" combo. When you're saying "tr," you're really saying "ch." For instance, saying "trip" and "chrip" sound exactly the same. The "ch" is another one of those sounds that can be stretched, but warp into another sound - "sh" in this case. Good luck and try out as many tools as you can to see which one fits you best :)
