SFS/EFXHIST
Windows Tool for Fundamental Frequency Analysis
EFXHIST is a free program for the analysis of jointly-recorded speech and Laryngograph® signals. EFXHIST calculates the locations of every pitch period in the recording using the Laryngograph® signal then produces statistics of voicing, fundamental frequency, closed quotient, jitter, shimmer, etc.
Currently supported analyses are: Dx1, Dx2, Cumulative Dx1, Cumulative Dx2, Closed-Quotient, Jitter, Shimmer, Crossplot, Phonetogram, Harmonic-Noise Ratio, and Long-term Spectrum. A summary statistics table is also provided which can be copied to the clipboard. Distributions can also be imported into Excel or similar programs.
Version 2.0 beta now supports 24-bit and 32-bit samples.
