Convention Paper

A Speech-Based Frequency Scale

Authors: Brookes, Tim

AES Convention 110 · Paper 5329 · May 2001

Abstract

There are several different audio frequency scales in common use, each having its own particular merits. The speech-based frequency scale derived here, from vowel formant frequency difference limens, has a markedly different shape from the others and attaches more relative weight to the range of frequencies associated with vowel perception, making it potentially well suited to speech analysis applications.
