FormantGrid

One of the types of objects in Praat.

A FormantGrid object represents spectral structure as a function of time: a formant contour. Unlike the evenly sampled Formant object, it consists of a number of formant tiers and bandwidth tiers, each of which contains a number of formant or bandwidth points (or targets), sorted by time.

For examples, see Source-filter synthesis.

FormantGrid commands

Creation:

From scratch:
• Create FormantGrid...
• FormantGrid: Add formant point...
• FormantGrid: Add bandwidth point...
Copy from another object:
• Formant: Down to FormantGrid: trivial copying of frames to points.

Synthesis:

• Sound & FormantGrid: Filter: see Source-filter synthesis.

Modification:

• FormantGrid: Add formant point...
• FormantGrid: Add bandwidth point...
• FormantGrid: Remove formant points between...
• FormantGrid: Remove bandwidth points between...
