pitchwatch.m

This a GUI that manages DSP analysis functions for wav-files (e.g., speech signals). Two functions (

function pitchwatch(x,Ts)
% Plot the pitch keys.
% pitchwatch(x,[Ts])
% 
% :: Syntax
%    The array x is the input signal and Ts is the (optional) sampling period.
%    Example on use: [x,Fs] = wavread('Hum.wav');
%                    pitchwatch(x,1/Fs);
% 
% :: Information
%    Make your own wav-files with the Windows Sound Recorder. Choose the attributes
%    PCM 8000Hz, 16bit, Mono when saving the wav-file. For more information on pitch
%    keys, go to http://www.bookrags.com/wiki/Piano_key_frequencies.
