<strong>Stammering</strong> <strong>Research</strong>. Vol. 1.<br />
The Pocket DAF/FAF Assistant<br />
interface is simple and intuitive.<br />
There are two gauge controls that are<br />
responsible for setting Delay and<br />
Frequency Shift. The Delay has the<br />
range of 50 ms to 250 ms. The<br />
Frequency Shift has the range of -10<br />
to +10 which corresponds to +/- onehalf<br />
octave. These intervals are<br />
widely used in DAF/FAF speech<br />
therapy.<br />
The DAF/FAF Assistant<br />
automatically saves configured<br />
Delay and Frequency Shift settings<br />
when you close the program and<br />
restores these settings back when<br />
you start the application.<br />
The Start and Stop buttons turn the<br />
sound playback on and off.<br />
The Register button allows you to<br />
enter your registration name and key.<br />
When the software is registered this<br />
button is hidden.<br />
