Auditory feedback influences human speech production, as demonstrated by studies using rapid pitch and loudness changes. Feedback has also been investigated using the gradual manipulation of formants in adaptation studies with whispered speech. In the work reported here, the first formant of steady-state isolated vowels was unexpectedly altered within trials for voiced speech. This was achieved using a real-time formant tracking and filtering system developed for this purpose. The first formant of vowel /epsilon/ was manipulated 100% toward either /ae/ or /I/, and participants responded by altering their production with average F1 compensation as large as 16.3% and 10.6% of the applied formant shift, respectively. Compensation was estimated to begin < 460 ms after stimulus onset. The rapid formant compensations found here suggest that auditory feedback control is similar for both F0 and formants.
