style.pitchRange (Property)

Part of the aural style control suite that defines the variance of the spoken voice pitch when it is capable of rendering emphasis by changing its average pitch.

Availability:

CSS level - 2
DOM level - 2
Property/method value type:String primitive
JavaScript syntax:nonemyStyle.pitchRange
CSS syntax:pitch-range: aRange
Argument list:aRangeA range of pitch variation

The pitch range allows for the voice to raise and fall during speech to make it sound more interesting.

The value of 0 can be used to prevent any pitch change during speech. This would cause speech to use a monotone and sound very dull. A value of 50 would sound normal while a value of 100 would sound somewhat excited.

Warnings:
