Adult speaking pitch comparison
Male Voice Frequency Test
Compare speaking pitch with the reference guide. The displayed bands cannot establish masculinity or normality.

Continuous speech gives the analyzer enough samples to calculate a useful median.

Understanding male speaking-frequency ranges
Published averages depend on age, language, population and whether researchers measure reading, conversation or a sustained vowel. That is why this tool uses broad bands rather than claiming one universal normal value.
Frequency also does not determine whether a voice sounds masculine or deep. Resonance, formants, vocal weight and articulation can change perception even when two speakers share the same median Hz.
Method and interpretation
Use this result
Compare speaking pitch with the reference guide. The displayed bands cannot establish masculinity or normality.
A value above a reference band is not a failed test. Population averages do not define individual identity.
Read the measurement guideWhat is calculated?
Autocorrelation analyzes 2,048-sample frames about every 45 ms, within 60–400 Hz. Frames need RMS ≥ 0.01 and correlation ≥ 0.55. A result requires 20 detected frames and at least 20% detection coverage.
Median, mean and standard deviation use detected frames. Endpoints are the 2nd and 98th percentiles; trimming extremes does not guarantee removal of octave errors.
Microphones, noise and octave errors affect results. Accuracy has not been independently validated. Pitch bands are interface descriptions, not population norms or diagnoses.
These tools share one pitch detector; each page offers a different way to interpret its measurements.
Frequently asked questions
What is the average male voice frequency?+
Many studies place adult male average fundamental frequency around 100–130 Hz, but age, language, context and measurement method produce meaningful variation.
Is 120 Hz a normal male voice?+
Yes. A median around 120 Hz sits within commonly reported adult male speaking ranges.
Does male voice frequency change with age?+
Yes. Pitch drops through puberty and may change again later in life as vocal-fold tissue, muscle control and respiratory support change.
Why is my frequency higher than the reference range?+
Natural overlap is substantial. Emotion, speaking style, language and resonance all matter, so a higher result is not inherently abnormal.
Is this a medical assessment?+
No. It is an informal browser-based measurement and cannot diagnose a vocal condition.
