Hello girlies and other folk,

my boyfriend is programming a desktop app that displays your current voice input's frequency in Hz over time with a real time graph, similar to the app "voice tools" many of us use for voice training.

I'm trying to garner interest for such a desktop app and would appreciate input about it so I can show him that it's not something only I would want.

I would also be interested in the OS you would be using, since currently it's only on Linux (as we use arch btw).

The image shows what it's currently looking like and the settings window. The entire point is for it to be always on top of everything else so you can always see how you're doing.

And for the other nerds: it's written in Python (making it quite large, about 2GB, he's trying to port it to Rust (based) and make it smaller)

Of course it will be, the size is due to tensorflow which handles pitch detection

Could you elaborate on how Rust will decrease the binary size? You cannot meaningfully decrease the neural network, right?

Not trying to hate, just curious.

I think its because of the python installer and it needing more dependencies to be fully present? I'm working on getting the current build out of him, I hope that will allow others to have a more educated look than me.

Hi! This community exists as a place for trans people of all genders (or gender fluidity, or non-binary etc.) to help them overcome the challenges of being able to speak normally as their preferred gender. Upload audio clips, screenshots from analyzers, or what ever you feel like in order to get feedback and help perfected the voice you have into a state where you are comfortable.

Rules

These are going to be fairly open, since I trust that most posts here are seeking genuine help.

No shaming. This should be obvious. People are looking for help and advice here.
Absolutely no transphobic rhetoric will be tolerated. One warning (with a timeout), then a ban.
If you post an audio file, keep it SFW. We don't need to hear that stuff.
Keep criticisms pertinent and overall kind. Part of this whole thing is practice. We shouldn't expect immediate improvement.
This is a zero politics zone. If you bring them up, goodbye.
No slurs (I hate that I feel this is necessary)
If you have negative feedback, do so in a constructively respectful manner while remembering that this kind of thing is a journey and can't be immediate.
This being the internet, help with voice mod stuff is encouraged. It can make a huge difference for someone with voice dysphoria if others hear them they way they wish to sound.
These rules are not necessarily exhaustive, and if you are generally a jerk or toll, expect a ban

Welcome! As I find them, I will be linking resources in this sidebar.
