I am trying to analyze frequency mean, range, and variability from a speaker reading a passage aloud. I am using Praat and a Matlab script I am writing to analyze these. The common threshold in Praat is 75 Hz to 300 Hz for a male speaking voice and 100 Hz to 500 Hz for a female speaking voice. I want to make sure I am obtaining the most accurate fundamental frequencies of their voice, not higher frequencies from breathes or ends of words. Does anyone with experience in these analyses have a more accurate threshold criteria or are these thresholds in Praat suitable?
