Note: If you can't see the waveform, it could be because the recording has a low signal-to-noise ratio. You'll typically want to use this one, and NOT the unmarked arrow in the left bank of controls, which plays out the entire file till you stop it.)
Use your cursor to select a portion of the soundfile, then click the button with the RIGHT-TRIANGLE + S symbol in the central bank of controls. Try playing out selected portions of the audiofile. Since we have not yet created any annotation tiers, the only annotation tier we have is "default0".ģ. At about the middle of the screen are the buttons for audio playback, a long thin bar (the "Annotation Density Viewer"), the Waveform Viewer (which shows timestamps, and the waveform for lab6.wav), and the area for annotation tiers.
All transcriptions (for Speakers 19, 20, and the two interviewers) were merged for the phone-level alignment. lab6phones.TextGrid was generated by the Penn Phonetics Lab Forced Aligner, and contains both word- and phone-level transcriptions of the entire excerpt. lab6.TextGrid contains an orthographic transcription of utterances for both PNWEnglish Speakers 19 and 20. However, ELAN wants to work with interval (not point) tiers. ELAN can read audiofiles and Praat text grids (a Praat text grid is a time-aligned system of multiple annotated text tiers). We can work with the soundfile and transcription in ELAN. For this week's lab, we will be using a longer stretch of the same conversation, about 10 minutes. We also generated a phone-level alignment using the Penn Phonetics Lab Forced Aligner for a very short portion of the "scrapple" recording. Information generated in ELAN work sessions is saved to annotation files, never to your media file.įor Lab 2, we worked with an audiofile in Praat, and with an orthographic transcript in MS Word. This lab will also allow us to take advantage of ELAN's interoperability with Praat signal analysis software.ĮLAN takes one or more media files, and one or more annotation files (. ELAN is an annotation tool that allows you to create, edit, visualize and search annotations for video and audio data. (This guide was written for ELAN 4.0., and its screenshots are appropriate for this version, but it works fine as a general reference for 4.3.) ELAN stands for EUDICO Linguistic Annotator, and EUDICO for European Distributed Corpora Project.

The computer should prompt you for your patas passwordĪnd then copy the file to your current directory on your local Recall that you issue the following command to your local machine (replacing username with your actual username):
Working from this directory, copy the files from my patas account to your local machine. It is recommended that you create a new folder called "lab6" in the working directory on your local computer.
