[open] Voicekey timing

Sigor16

Hi all,

I'm planning an experiment where participants have to read words appearing on the screen.
I would like to use to reaction time for reading and the time took to read the word.

For the reaction time, I used the code describe in the post called Voicekey input / Triggering responses through sound input and it works perfectly.

But I would like to determine the time take to read the word. I tried to adapt the code to take the time when the loudness falls below the threshold but it doesn't works.

Anyone have an idea ?

Thank in advance for your help,

Simon

Hi Simon,

In principle you should be able to adapt the code from that discussion to detect voice offsets as well as onsets. But without seeing your modified code I obviously cannot tell what's wrong.

However, wouldn't it be easier and safer to record the responses in a sound file, and analyse these afterwards? In most cases, this is the preferred approach, because there's less that can go wrong.

Cheers,
