[Corpora-List] EXMARaLDA Spoken Language Tools: Anniversary release

[Thomas Schmidt]

On the occasion of EXMARaLDA's 10th anniversary,
new versions of the EXMARaLDA tools have been released.
They can be downloaded free of charge from

http://www.exmaralda.org/en_index.html

EXMARaLDA is a system for creating, managing, analysing and
disseminating spoken language corpora:

The EXMARaLDA Partitur-Editor (version 1.5) is a tool for creating,
editing and outputting multi-level, audio- or video-aligned
transcriptions in musical score notation. It provides import and
export filters for the formats of many other tools (Praat, ELAN, CLAN,
Transcriber
among others) and for various presentation formats.

The EXMARaLDA Corpus Manager (version 1.8) is a tool for bundling
transcriptions into corpora, managing metadata about communications
and speakers and filtering transcriptions according to their metadata.

EXAKT (version 1.0) , the EXMARaLDA Analysis and Concordance Tool, is
a tool for querying EXMARaLDA corpora. It extends the functionality of
a KWIC concordancer with additional features that are important for
the analysis of spoken language, such as: the possibility to play back
the part of the audio or video signal corresponding to a search
result, filtering search results according to speaker and
communication metadata, or manual annotation of search results.

All EXMARaLDA tools are programmed in Java and will run on Windows,
Macintosh and Linux Operating systems.

The EXMARaLDA demo corpus at

http://www.exmaralda.org/corpora/en_demokorpus.html,

containing transcription examples in several languages, provides a
quick impression of the system's capabilities.

EXMARaLDA is free and open source software.
The development of the system is ongoing, we appreciate your feedback.

With kind regards,
