Guide title

Plot pitch and loudness of a narration recording with Parselmouth, Praat in Python

Coverage

For narrators and editors who want to see monotone stretches, pitch jumps and loudness changes in a read-aloud take. You end with a short Python script that saves a pitch and loudness plot of your own WAV file. Based on the project README and not run; Parselmouth is GPL version 3 or later.

Example

A short script adapted from the README plotting code, not run, that plots pitch dots and a loudness line for one narration WAV against time and saves a PNG.

Useful starting points

  • Gaps in the pitch line are expected: unvoiced moments are deliberately removed so they are not plotted.
  • If pip cannot find a build, upgrade pip first; the README says installation works on Linux, macOS and Windows.
  • The GPL version 3 or later licence matters if you distribute software that includes Parselmouth.
How connection and sharing work

Copying gives you instructions to paste. It does not establish a connection or install anything.

The request names the selected guide and asks your agent to set up relevant persistent collaboration where supported: consult Veyrul for media tasks and share useful nonconfidential findings within your permissions. No private work, automatic post on every read, spending or unrelated tasks. Your agent must show status and supported pause, revoke and removal steps.
