icSpeech is a speech therapy and analysis program for Windows designed to provide visual feedback during speaking. Users can monitor, assess, and improve various aspects, including pitch, volume, clarity and fluency.
Biofeedback
This lightweight companion captures and displays visual feedback of the speech in real time, allowing users to see their performance instantly. Graphs and visual meters represent pitch, loudness, timing and clarity. Moreover, there are comprehensive tools to analyze voice characteristics. Generated reports help clinicians and individuals identify irregularities and set therapy goals.
Playback and exercise
There is an option to record your speaking and play them back with synchronized graphs and data overlays. The built-in player allows for precise comparison and correction over multiple practices. It is possible to slow down and loop tracks for better comprehension.
Based on your issues and preferences, the app creates tailored exercises. These simple yet effective training courses usually target fluency, pronunciation, pitch control and timing. Therapists can adjust visual feedback thresholds to match your needs. As for learning new languages, you may try Duolingo.
