Dear Alexis, My suggestion is using the word "frequency" that defines an objective meaning instead of "pitch" in the voice report. As you say "pitch" has a...
... well, some of the pitch algorithms yield an acoustic fundamental frequency and some yield a more perceptually-based result. All these things go in the same...

Dear Paul, Thank you for your message. I was slightly surprised by your answer: I had no doubt that the algorithms in Praat are adequate for the measurement of...
hello members, hello Paul I´m really wondering about the question for intensity measurement of vowels is durable ignored! Is it impossible or so much...
This may seem a strange question, but need some information about the waveform graph. I am using a direct speech signal graph in my Masters thesis and I need...
... The unit of sound pressure is Pascal, but the actual values shown in Praat are correct only if you have "calibrated" the signal. See the manual for more...

Hello, I wrote a simple script to add to the dynamic menu of the OBJECTS window to automate drawing of a textgrid under a painted spectrogram. Here's the...
Ok, I solved the problem... added the command "endeditor" to the beginning of the script in the objects window - for some reason, despite the fact that objects...
Dear members of the list, do you know by any chance what mathematical function the smoothing with a bandwidth of e.g. 10 Hz would require, if, for example, you...
First, sorry for my English. I work in Praat 4.3.19 (Mac Os 10.2.6). I write an hipertext file but I can't do link manfiles. I have, for example, one file...
Hello all, I am trying to learn if there is a way with PRAAT to use a header, which contains information on the signal, e.g. sampling frequency, sample type...
Hi praat-users- I am trying to find out what the cochleagram that is implemented in praat is based on. Is there a reference out there that I can read to try...
I have a database of vowels and I would like to add 5ms raised cosine onsets and offsets to the sounds. Is there an easy way to do this in praat? Thank you, ...
Sorry for a perhaps posing a question that has been answered before or regarded as easy, but I'm absolutely new to praat. I'm in the process of analysing...
Dear users We use Praat to find F2 and F1 values. But sometimes when we reopen Praat we get different F2 values for the same segment. Sometimes these...

Dear Praat users, I want to analyse voiceless fricatives by applying spectral moment measures (centre of gravity, kurtosis etc.) to an average of a series of...
