WaveSurfer is an Open Source software for sound visualization and manipulation, designed to suit both novice and advanced users. WaveSurfer has a simple and logical user interface that provides functionality in an intuitive way and which can be adapted to different tasks.
WaveSurfer can be used as a stand-alone tool for a wide range of tasks in speech research and education. Typical applications are speech/sound analysis and sound annotation/transcription.
WaveSurfer can also serve as a platform for more advanced/specialized applications. This is accomplished either through extending the WaveSurfer application with new custom plug-ins or by embedding WaveSurfer visualization components in other applications.
Here are some key features of "WaveSurfer":
· Flexible interface - handles multiple sounds
· Common sound file formats - reads, and writes WAV, AU, AIFF, MP3, CSL, SD, Ogg/Vorbis, and NIST/Sphere
· Transcription file formats - reads, and writes HTK (and MLF), TIMIT, ESPS/Waves+, and Phondat. Support for encodings and Unicode.
· Unlimited file size - playback and recording directly from/to disk
· Sound analysis - e.g. spectrogram and pitch analysis
· Customizable - users can create their own configurations. Localization support.
· Extensible - new functionality can be added through a plugin architecture
· Embeddable - WaveSurfer can be used as a widget in custom applications
· Scriptable - hosts a built-in script interpreter
What's New in This Release:
