Installation

Windows

On Windows, Phonometrica is provided as a self-contained installer file. Simply double-click on ‘setup_phonometrica.exe’ and follow the instructions.

The procedure will install Phonometrica in your Program Files directory and will create a shortcut in the start menu (and optionally on the desktop).

Mac OS

On Mac OS, Phonometrica is provided as a standard DMG image disk. Mount the image by double-clicking on it and drag Phonometrica into your Applications folder. If you want Phonometrica to be able to interact with Praat, you will need to install Praat in the Applications folder as well.

Currently, only macOS 10.13 (High Sierra) and later are “officially” supported. It does not work on earlier versions.

Linux (Debian/Ubuntu)

The official executable that is provided on the website is built on Debian 10 and is available for 64-bit architectures. On modern distributions, all dependencies should be installed. Assuming the .deb package is in your Downloads directory, you should be able to install it with the following command:

sudo apt install ~/Downloads/phonometrica-X-X-X.deb

replacing X.X.X with the correct version number. If this somehow fails, you can install Phonometrica’s dependencies with the following command:

sudo apt install libasound2 libsndfile1 libgtk2.0-0 libqt5gui5 libqt5widgets5 fonts-noto-mono
