Opening a wave file in Praat

ELAN offers the possibility to open wave files (or a part of them) in Praat (see praat.org). To achieve this, follow the steps below:

  1. If desired, make a selection first (See the section called “How to make a selection”)

  2. Right-click in the waveform viewer

  3. Choose Open file in Praat or Open selection in Praat

  4. If you haven’t specified the location of the Praat program yet, you will have to locate them now in the file dialog

  5. The Praat program containing the wave file appears
