The need exists for a simple, hardware, real-time pitch extractor for speech research, training, and similar applications requiring less than perfect accuracy. A simple combination of a band-pass filter and a fast amplitude detector formed from a tapped analog delay line provides useful and reliable pitch contours from a live speech input.
