SPPAS is a free audio annotation tool that allows you to create, visualize and search annotations for audio data. It is able to produce automatically speech segmentation annotations from a recorded speech sound and its transcription. Some special features are also offered for managing corpora of annotated files. The whole procedure is a succession of automatic steps. Result is a set of TextGrid files. SPPAS is currently designed for French, English, Italian, Spanish, Catalan, Mandarin Chinese, Taiwanese, Cantonese and Japanese, and there is an easy way to add other languages.
