I am looking for a software that helps with thai tones (by displaying a graphic with both the correct pitch and my pitch)

Any software to recommend ?

Regards,

What I did was buy a Thai/English Dictionary that includes pronunciation. Along with the dictionary (ThaiDict) there was a link to a place where I downloaded a free app called "Voiceviewer".

How I use it with the ThaiDict is to start the Voiceviewer app, then the ThaiDict app. Using a microphone, I will click on a Thai word I want to hear and then immediately say the Thai word as I hear it. The Voiceviewer shows the ThaiDict pronunciation (tone freqs) and my pronunication. It really shows how badly (for me) or how close you are to correctly pronuncing the word. I think it is a great combination to learn how to pronounce the tones correctly. Good luck.

The Byki language software has exactly this feature built in.

It shows you a word, you pronounce it, it compares your pronunciation with a stored sound created by a native speaker, compares the wave forms and gives you a score.

The downside - Byki isn't free.
