The Workspace is the default application in STx. The Workspace is where you organise your project's sound files and run your analyses.

When you open a sound file in STx, it is added to your project file. The sound files in your project are listed in the Files list:

Stx ug workspace compact overview files.png

When you select a sound file in the Files list, any segments the sound file contains are displayed in the segment detail view:

When you want to analyse part of your sound file, you select a segment of the sound file and then choose either Start from the Analysis or Transcription controls. This will open a new window with the relevant analysis.

Analysis

The Analysis section will by default display a narrowband spectrogram with formants tracks as well as an F0, RMS and wave graph of the selected segment.

You can enable/disable graphs here, before starting the analysis. If you need other features, please use the Setup dialog.

Transcription

The Transcription section of the workspace lets you start the Transcription application. This application was specifically designed for transcribing.

You can change some basic settings here:

view
Display the sound file as a waveform or both a waveform and a spectrogram (see here for more details).
block length
If the sound file is long, you can view it in blocks to increase loading speed.
step size
When scrolling through blocks, the next block will overlap by this value with the last block.
Start
Start the Transcription application.
Setup
Open the setup dialog for further settings.

Compact and Extended Mode

By default, the Workspace starts in the Compact Mode. This is a simplified GUI which enables quick access to the most frequently used functions of STx. The Workspace can also be run in Extended Mode, which exposes all STx functionality to the user. To change mode, choose either Compact or Extended from the File->Select Workspace Mode menu.

The Compact mode was added to STx in version 5.0.
