Partiels ~ Audio Analysis Application

Posted by tom2tec on

Partiels is an audio analysis application that allows you to explore the content and characteristics of sounds.

Features:

Partiels allows analysis of one or several audio files using Vamp plug-ins loading data files, visualizing, editing, organizing, and exporting the results as images or text files that can be used in other applications such as Max, Pure Data, Open Music, etc.

  • Windows, Mac & Linux support
  • Multiformat support
  • Multichannel support
  • Multiaudiofile support
  • Analyzing audio with Vamp plug-ins
  • Visualizing results as spectrogram, lines, and markers
  • Textual and graphical editing of results 
  • Organizing and ordering analyses in groups
  • Exporting results to PNG, JPEG, CSV, LAB, JSON, CUE, REAPER & SDIF formats
  • Loading results from CSV, LAB, JSON, CUE & SDIF formats
  • Batch processing
  • Command line interface to analyze, export, and convert results
  • Consolidating documents for sharing

Alongside Partiels, a wide range of analyses based on audio engines developed at IRCAM and outside are ported to Vamp plug-ins. These plug-ins allow you to perform FFT, LPC, transient, fundamental, formant, tempo, TTS and many other analyses. You can also find a large number of analysis plug-ins on the Vamp plug-ins website.

aubio ~ Audio Labelling Library

Posted by tom2tec on

aubio is a tool designed for the extraction of annotations from audio signals. Its features include segmenting a sound file before each of its attacks, performing pitch detection, tapping the beat and producing midi streams from live audio.

Because these tasks are difficult, we thought it was important to gather them in a dedicated library. To increase the fun, we have made these algorithms work in a causal way, so as to be used in real time applications with as low delay as possible. Functions can be used offline in sound editors and software samplers, or online in audio effects and virtual instruments.

Features:

aubio currently provides the following features:

  • digital filters
  • phase vocoder
  • onset detection (several methods)
  • pitch tracking (several methods)
  • beat and tempo tracking
  • mel frequency cepstrum coefficients (MFCC)
  • transient / steady-state separation

SoundTouch ~ Audio Processing Library

Posted by tom2tec on

SoundTouch is an open-source audio processing library for changing the Tempo, Pitch and Playback Rates of audio streams or audio files. The library additionally supports estimating stable beats-per-minute rates for audio tracks.

  • Tempo (time stretch): Changes the sound to play at faster or slower tempo than originally without affecting the sound pitch.
  • Pitch (key) : Changes the sound pitch or key while keeping the original tempo (speed).
  • Playback Rate : Changes both tempo and pitch together as if a vinyl disc was played at different RPM rate.

The SoundTouch library is intended for application developers writing sound processing tools that require tempo/pitch control functionality, or just for playing around with the sound effects.

The SoundTouch library source kit includes also an example utility SoundStretch for processing .wav audio files from command-line interface.

Access the source codes in gitlab or download the compiled executables.
