Workshop // Manual measurement of vocal tremor properties

This page is for the introduction/initiation of the manual measurement of vocal tremor properties (extent and rate of modulation in fundamental frequency and intensity level) with the program Praat.

What do you need?

  • Program Praat (installed on your computer) … download it from www.praat.org .
  • An Excel-sheet helping you to calculate the above mentioned vocal tremor properties … download it from this page (see below).
  • A couple of examples of tremors voice/speech … download them from this page (see below).
