contains onset and offset time points and an additional three acoustical features for each segmented syllable:
- duration
- maxfreq (max frequency) ... peak frequency of the time frame that has the highest amplitude in that syllable
- maxamp (max amplitude) ... amplitude value of the maxfreq
- meanfreq (mean frequency) ... mean of peak frequencies
- cvfreq (cv of frequency) ... coefficient of variaction of peak frequencies
