A similar method works for creating pronunciation variants from TextGrid files. As in the interlinear gloss files, you would have three tiers in a TextGrid; one with spelling, one with canonical pronunciations; and one with the specific pronunciations used in particular instances. The :ref:`parsing_parameters` would be filled in similarly.

Note that the canonical pronunciations are in fact optional; it is possible to simply associate pronunciation variants with spelling forms (though this may limit some of the functionality of searching and some analyses).
Note that currently, every corpus must have canonical pronunciations; a two-line interlinear gloss file, for example, cannot have pronunciation variants.

Note that it is also not currently possible to create a corpus with pronunciation variants from a .csv file, as there is no standard way of associating the variants with a given lexical item.
