Praat 4.3, 26 January 2005

General:

•  `Apply' button in settings windows for menu commands and in script forms.
•  Info window can be saved.
•  Removed 30,000-character limit in Info window.

Phonetics:

•  Speeded up intensity analysis by a factor of 10 (by making its time resolution 0.01 ms rather than 0.0001 ms at a sampling frequency of 44 kHz).
•  Speeded up pitch analysis and spectrogram analysis by a factor of two.
•  Sound: To Spectrum... now has a reasonably fast non-FFT version.
•  Calibrated long-term average spectrum (Sound: To Ltas...).
•  Pitch-corrected LTAS analysis.
•  Sound: Scale intensity.
•  PitchTier: To Sound (sine).
•  Better warnings against use of the LPC object.

Voice:

•  July 9, 2004 (4.2.08): Shimmer measurements: more accurate and less sensitive to additive noise.
•  More extensive voice report: pitch statistics; harmonicity.

Audio:

•  Reading and opening 24-bit and 32-bit sound files (saving still goes in 16 bits).
•  LongSound: save separate channels.
•  Macintosh: much faster reading of WAV files.

Listening experiments:

•  Subjects can now respond with keyboard presses.

Graphics:

•  One can now drag the inner viewport in the Picture window, excluding the margins. This is nice e.g. for creating square viewports or for drawing a waveform and a spectrogram in close contact.
•  Unix: picture highlighting as on Mac and Windows.
•  More drawing methods for Sound and Ltas (curve, bars, poles, speckles).

OT learning:

•  Monitor rankings when learning.
•  OTGrammar: Remove harmonically bounded candidates...
•  OTGrammar: Save as headerless spreadsheet file...
•  Metrics grammar: added *Clash, *Lapse, WeightByPosition and *MoraicConsonant.

Scripting:

•  nowarn, noprogress, nocheck.
•  Line numbers.
