In the beginning of a syllable, the English b is not a voiced consonant. It is just unaspirated and unvoiced. If you cut off the "s" part of the word "spot", you get exactly the sound of "bot". Similarly for "splender / blender" or "screen/ green". (reference ua-cam.com/video/U37hX8NPgjQ/v-deo.html) Comparing to French, if you cut off the "s" part of "star", it sounds exactly like "tar" (for example the word "tard" with slient d), and it is different than "dar" (for example the word "dard" with a silent d) There are languages that do three way (even four) distinctions, for instance Southern Min has 3 and Hindi has 4. Unvoiced Aspirated for VOT ~= 50 ms Unvoiced Unaspirated for VOT ~= 0 ms Voiced Unaspirated for VOT ~= -50 ms Voiced Aspirated for VOT ~= -50 ms (with beginning breathy voice)
you're referring to phonetic / acoustic voicing, but the video here uses the very common shorthand of referring to the sounds with their phonological patterns. An interesting thing also happens at the end of syllables in English, where consonant that act phonologically voiced are produced voiceless as well.
I wonder if you show me how to do with annotation and segmentation of stops both plain and labialized in the context of initial and intervocalic positions.
I'd love to know more about the lesser factors concerning consonant recognition beyond VOT and formants that you mentioned were beyond the scope of the introductory class. Where could I look for more information? Any reference literature would be appreciated!
Here's a video on consonant acoustics: ua-cam.com/video/SbHNLyDmBdQ/v-deo.html Many good papers on this topic have been published by the Acoustical Society of America. That's my primary source for much of the knowledge I have on this topic.

This is outstanding. Just as a suggestion, it would have been interesting to hear the original sounds depicted in your graphics.
I'm writing a paper about VOT and this is SO helpful. Thank you so much!
Soo helpful thank you! The highlighting and clear boundaries on the waveforms were great.
Your videos on Speech Acoustics is really helpful. Tqvm.
That was very helpful indeed. Thnx a million.

2:09 I'm an English learner. I can't pronounce 'B' 'D' 'G' 'V' 'TH(The)'. Could you amplify the real sound of the that pre-voice of the negative VOT?
This is so helpful. Thank you!

@@listenlab_umn Thank you for the reply!
شكراthank you, so much. That was helpful.
Thank you
Can anyone tell, why we are learning it? I meant the objectives or implications?
