One question about formant frequency: Is always a formant frequency F(i), i = 1,2.. a multiple of fundamental frequency(pitch) F(0)? J. _____________________________________ Do you know a company who employs DSP engineers? Is it already listed at http://dsprelated.com/employers.php ?
Is formant F always a multiple of F0?
