We introduced a measurement procedure for the involuntary response of voice fundamental-frequency to frequency modulated auditory stimulation. This involuntary response plays an essential role in voice fundamental frequency control while less investigated due to technical difficulties. This article introduces an interactive and real-time tool for investigating this response and supporting tools adopting our new measurement method. The method enables simultaneous measurement of multiple system properties based on a novel set of extended time-stretched pulses combined with orthogonalization. We made MATLAB implementation of these tools available as an open-source repository. This article also provides the detailed measurement procedure using the interactive tool followed by offline measurement tools for conducting subjective experiments and statistical analyses. It also provides technical descriptions of constituent signal processing subsystems as appendices. This application serves as an example for adopting our method to biological system analysis.
