Praatalign: an interactive Praat plug-in for performing phonetic forced alignment

Due to licencing the english and sampa models have been removed.

Version 2.0a

Praatalign is a plug-in for Praat that can be used to do forced phonetic alignment on speech signals and in particular free speech. Praatalign combines the powerful HTK toolkit with the interactivity and modularity of Praat to create an interactive, intuitive and extendable application. Currently Praatalign uses the acoustic models trained by Schiel et al. used in MAUS[1,2].
