    I am trying to do this myself and whenever i get to the df <- read.csv("my_formants.Table")... comes up I get an error saying Error in make.names(col.names, unique = TRUE) : invalid multibyte string at '<fe><ff>' In addition: Warning messages: 1: In read.table(file = file, header = header, sep = sep, quote = quote, : line 1 appears to contain embedded nulls 2: In read.table(file = file, header = header, sep = sep, quote = quote, : line 2 appears to contain embedded nulls 3: In read.table(file = file, header = header, sep = sep, quote = quote, : line 3 appears to contain embedded nulls 4: In read.table(file = file, header = header, sep = sep, quote = quote, : line 4 appears to contain embedded nulls 5: In read.table(file = file, header = header, sep = sep, quote = quote, : line 5 appears to contain embedded nulls I was wondering if anyone else had this problem and if so, how do I resolve it?

    that looks like the kind of error that could happen if you didn't save the formant table as a csv (it's easy to accidentally save it as a different kind of file)

    hi, sorry for asking but can I know why when I get the intensity from the 'query' button is different with the intensity i get when I select view & edit -> intensity -> get intensity ? I got 71.10 when i used the query but i get 70.75 when i used this method (view & edit -> intensity -> get intensity)

    6:13 this band-pass filter speech sounds like people speak in the old tv shows/radio. Is this what gives the old tv/radio's audio its signature 'voice profile' compared to how we hear people speak in modern tv and real life? I also assumed they do that filter to reduce the data, but since bandwidth is less a issue today, we stop doing that filtering.

    I taught myself English. After 20 years of practice I finally have a solid native-like accent. I'm moving to Paris and I'm teaching myself French, and this time I want to nail a native-lie accent (in this case Parisian) using a more rational approach. I just created a "standard" vowel space by following this tutorial and using recordings of a guy online who has a very similar voice to mine, and I intend to compare my own vowel space so that I can improve. Thank you so much dude!

    Thanks for your video and script! Your script works pretty well with affricates. However, one thing I'm curious about is that, when dealing with stop consonants, I find that the middle-lag sounds sound weird, as if it were a pure vowel sound without any initial consonants (for example, ba sounds like a). May I ask the reason for this and how to correct it?

    f = c/L. So yes, frequency is inversely related to vocal tract length. Bigger people have deeper voices.

    There's a step at 7:49 that appears to be done with a keyboard shortcut. This is when you told R Studio to read the table of formants. As I'm new to R, I don't know what you've done and how to replicate it. Something similar happens at 9:20, where you told R Studio to take the end points of a trajectory. Could someone please explain how to do these steps?

    Sorry for the rudimentary question. Does the sampling rate of every audio file used to generate noise have to be the same? Furthermore, do the noise and the signal have to have the same sample rate if I should combine them?

    I cant quite figure it out: is the position of the larynx (high or low) lands at the source or the filter part of the model? In one hand it physically is the source of a sound, but in the other hand it changes the envelope

    there is nothing inherently wrong with someone using vocal fry. Sometimes people feel discomfort because they have been taught to associate vocal fry with people who are treated poorly.
