Say it
Record a phrase and see the shape of your pitch against the model.
你好
Your pitch shape
This draws what your voice did. It isn't a score.
Using it
- Record
- Listens through your microphone and draws what your pitch actually did.
- The two curves
- Yours against the model, on one axis, so the difference is a shape rather than a score.
- Play the model
- Hears the target again before you try.
Say a word into the microphone and the tool draws what your voice actually did, over the same curve for a model voice. Tone is a shape, and seeing your own is far more use than being told a number. There is no score, and your recording never leaves your browser — the pitch tracking runs on your own machine.
