Hi, I am also in Purdue and studying in ECE dept. I have the experience of changing pitch of speech and I think that you can change level(amplititude) as the...
Dear Praat users, Here is how I trick Praat into believing a simple text file (which can contain a column with the values of the Lip Area or of any articulator...

Hello Lei, Thanks for your suggestion. But I still don't know how to get the a-weighted level. I can change the intensity using any fixed gain if there's no...

The a-weighting scheme has not been implemented in Praat as such, but you could of course use this formula for multiplication with a Spectrum, not with a Sound...

Would anyone be able to make the manual into a tree-saving PDF file? Printing the whole manual is a bit heavy and Ghostscript isn't convenient on an old Mac. ...

... The main problem with using MD recordings for phonetic analysis is that the recordings are compressed (i.e., throw away information) based on assumptions...
Thanks to Kevin Russell and Sean Madigan for replying. The fact that ATRAC is a lossy compression scheme is responsible for the notion that MD can't be used...
Hi everyone, I'm trying to get a better understanding of what the intensity algorithm in Praat actually measures when using the 'get peaks' function. When...

Well...I know that MD uses compression algorithms (ATRAC, etc). Theoretically there is not supposed to be any loss of data. However, one can hear the...

I use a MiniDisc recorder for my research and I am very happy with the results. I have a system that I bought in Japan (Sony MZ5-R5ST) which has a palm sized...

I just ran a simple test to see if the MiniDisc compression had any effect on vowel formants. Procedure followed: 1. Recorded myself (male voice) saying [bit]...
I found that if I save a section of a LongSound file (using "Write part to audio file...") to an NIST file, I can later open the NIST file with "Read two...

Hi, I know it wouldn't fulfill the same needs as the lovely synthesiser in Praat, but does there exist an articulatory synthesiser on a chip, using roughly the...
I am a new user of Praat and have a question related to the Harmonicity function. When using the Harmonicity command, are the values (min, max, mean) that are...
Hi there, I wrote a Praat script to draw pitch contours and save them to files. However, the sound files can be very short (40 ms). On executing the script, it...
... After "Edit", your script still runs in the Objects window and in the Picture window. To change the context to the editor, you do: Read from file......

I would like to write some scripts in Praat (Linux) and then call this procedures from a C programm. I´ve tried with the command "sendpraat" but I´m not...

Hello, any idea how to align HTK segmented files with sound files. Is it possible through Text Grid and Text Tire classes? Btw. I'm a novice user of PRAAT. Bye...
Hi, I've recently developed an interest in doing spectral warping. It seems that Praat could *almost* be used for this purpose but I'm not sure without...
