Abstract

A voice recognition interval scoring system comprises a pitch extractor (3) for extracting at least a fundamental pitch of the wave of a voice or a musical sound, a processor (CPU) for transducing pitch data generated by the pitch extractor into a musical interval, a memory (4) for storing the result of the processor, and a note indicator (5) with a musical sound generator (6) for visually or audibly expressing the content of the memory.
