I am looking to extract the duration values of silence and sound intervals from the text grid. I have broken down the audio file by sounding and speech intervals, as well as durations. However, I do not know how or if this is possible to extract the duration of each.
Does anyone have some input?
Many thanks.
The simplest form of extracting is to save the text grid and find the start and end values for each frame. You will be reading a series of "intervals" numbered 1 to N, looking at the "text" value in that interval, and the duration is xmax-xmin. This can be done with your favorite programming language, using the text grid as the input file; then you decide what you want to do with the durations. If you want to do it the hard way and write a Praat script, you can also do that. But there is no pre-set button that writes all of the durations of intervals indicated in a text grid.
