Vibrato¶

standard mode | Pitch category

Inputs¶

pitch (vector_real) - the pitch trajectory [Hz].

Outputs¶

vibratoFrequency (vector_real) - estimated vibrato frequency (or speed) [Hz]; zero if no vibrato was detected.

vibratoExtend (vector_real) - estimated vibrato extent (or depth) [cents]; zero if no vibrato was detected.

Parameters¶

maxExtend (real ∈ (0, ∞), default = 250) :
maximum considered vibrato extent [cents]

maxFrequency (real ∈ (0, ∞), default = 8) :
maximum considered vibrato frequency [Hz]

minExtend (real ∈ (0, ∞), default = 50) :
minimum considered vibrato extent [cents]

minFrequency (real ∈ (0, ∞), default = 4) :
minimum considered vibrato frequency [Hz]

sampleRate (real ∈ (0, ∞), default = 344.531) :
sample rate of the input pitch contour

Description¶

This algorithm detects the presence of vibrato and estimates its parameters given a pitch contour [Hz]. The result is the vibrato frequency in Hz and the extent (peak to peak) in cents. If no vibrato is detected in a frame, the output of both values is zero.

This algorithm should be given the outputs of a pitch estimator, i.e. PredominantMelody, PitchYinFFT or PitchMelodia and the corresponding sample rate with which it was computed.

The algorithm is an extended version of the vocal vibrato detection in PerdominantMelody.
