WinSnoori functions

WinSnoori processes speech files accompanied by their phonetic and orthographic annotations respectively giving the description of the speech signal in terms of phonemes and words.

WinSnoori:

- displays the sound signal or a portion of the signal covering a maximum duration of 8 seconds for large speech files.

- displays the phonetic and orthographic annotations of the signal.

- displays one of the six different signal spectrograms.

- detects spectral peaks (obtained either by cepstral smoothing or by LPC).

- displays the fundamental frequency (the pitch or voicing frequency) and allows the F0 contour as well as the speech rate to be modified.

- allows the editing of speech and annotation files.

- allows the display of spectral slices (for eight different spectra at same time).

- allows manual editing of parameters for the Klatt synthesizer and provides tools to automatic copy synthesis (automatic formant tracking, adjustment of formant amplitudes).
