GritTec laboratory announces a new product of Pitch Shift technology for audio applications

GritTec laboratory announced Pitch Shift technology for audio applications. This technology is used for high quality of pitch scale modification (changing the harmonics structure) of speech and audio signals.

February 5th, 2009

GritTec’s Pitch Shift technology is used for high quality of pitch scale modification (changing the harmonics structure) of speech and audio signals. Pitch shift technology can be effectively used for changing initial music or voice into another music or voice (audio-speech effect).

Pitch Shift technology can be effectively used:

- With IVR systems such as text to speech (TTS) systems;

- With solutions of VoIP telephony such as audio chats;

- For voice messanging services (voice mail).

General features of GritTec’s Pitch Shift:

- High sound quality;

- Supports sampling rates: 8 kHz, …, 48 kHz;

- Real time processing;

- Signal delay: 0 ms.;

- Guarantees fixed speaker position for stereo signals;

- Pitch-stretch factor: 50%, …, 200% (normal – speed: 100%);

- Dynamic mode changing of pitch stretch factor;

- Length of input packet data: inside specific length OR you can set packet length in samples yourself, but not less then 20 ms and not more then 40 ms.;

- Dynamic mode changing of length of packet data;

- Easy integration with target applications.
