Ok folks, never mind, I did some more testing with sigmund~ and I do now see 
that minpower and growth seems to be working. It works in a way I'm not quite 
sure to understand so I find it hard to use those parameters in a meaningful, 
predictable way, but I guess that's because of my limited understanding of 
what's going on exactly under the hood.

Thanks for your reply. Yes I did some testing with fiddle and Helmholtz, If I 
need to I'll get to that in an other question.

My question wasn't clear enough sorry about that. I would like first to clarify 
some aspect of the sigmund "notes" mode which seems very straight forward in 
the help file, namely growth and minpower parameter, but which in practice I 
find it doesn't quite work as expected. As anyone ever managed to get 
significantly different output by changing those two parameters? Are they 
working at all, and if so can anyone explain for the record how they actually 
work? Or maybe I'm missing something obvious?

I'll ask a clearer question regarding other specific strategies for refining 
pitch tracking result soon, thank you for your help.

Haven't tried [sigmund~], but [fiddle~] and [helmholtz~] (the latter by Katja 
Vetter) and I found [both fine but [helmholtz~] a bit better for my taste. I 
think it's a bit more responsive. What if you combine this with [env~] for 
example and this way you get pitch and amplitude...
