Vox Ars1.0 is now out. Like previous versions this one analyses 151.9756838905775 audio frames per second and provides a phonetic notation (as well as other measurements) for each and every one of these frames. However now Vox Ars 1.0 presents this wealth of information in a more friendly manner for phoneticians and phonologists:

- Iterated phone notations are collapsed.
- Subscript numbers are used to represent such iterations.
- Audio frames with background sounds are notated as collapsed underlined spaces.
- A separate paragraph with a linear transcription begins at every underlined space.
- Every paragraph is preceded by a time caption.
- The use of diacritics has been significantly reduced.
- The table of phonetics notes contains a simplified set of characters and diacritics.
- A spreadsheet with detailed information for every notation in also provided.

These improvements are now exemplified in the analysis of recordings mostly afforded by the Handbook of the International Phonetic Association available at:

The Table of Phonetic Notes provided in these sites is an indispensable reference to understand the meaning of the Vox Ars 1.0 generated data. I sell phonetic transcription services and may grant licenses to institutions or companies that may want to

- Build large transcribed corpora for unwritten linguistic variants;

- Reduce the cost and improve the quality of pronunciation lexicons and data for LLMs &

- Open new avenues for phonemic and acoustic scientific analysis across languages.

Feel free to send an email to [email protected] with an attached 2 minute recording, or sets of 200 recorded words, in wav monoaural file format, in any language. As soon as possible I will reply to you with the corresponding transcription files.
