12aubio is a library to label music and sounds. It listens to audio signals and
13attempts to detect events. For instance, when a drum is hit, at which frequency
14is a note, or at what tempo is a rhythmic melody.
15
16Its features include segmenting a sound file before each of its attacks,
17performing pitch detection, tapping the beat and producing midi streams from
18live audio.
19
20aubio provide several algorithms and routines, including:
21
22  - several onset detection methods
23  - different pitch detection methods
24  - tempo tracking and beat detection
25  - MFCC (mel-frequency cepstrum coefficients)
26  - FFT and phase vocoder
27  - up/down-sampling
28  - digital filters (low pass, high pass, and more)
29  - spectral filtering
30  - transient/steady-state separation
31  - sound file read and write access
32  - various mathematics utilities for music applications
33
34The name aubio comes from _audio_ with a typo: some errors are likely to be
35found in the results.

37Python module
38-------------
39
40A python module for aubio is provided. For more information on how to use it,
41please see the file [`python/README.md`](python/README.md) and the
42[manual](https://aubio.org/manual/latest/) .
43
44Tools
45-----
46
47The python module comes with the following command line tools:
48
49 - `aubio` extracts informations from sound files
50 - `aubiocut` slices sound files at onset or beat timestamps
51
52Additional command line tools are included along with the library:
53
54 - `aubioonset` outputs the time stamp of detected note onsets
55 - `aubiopitch` attempts to identify a fundamental frequency, or pitch, for
56   each frame of the input sound
57 - `aubiomfcc` computes Mel-frequency Cepstrum Coefficients
58 - `aubiotrack` outputs the time stamp of detected beats
59 - `aubionotes` emits midi-like notes, with an onset, a pitch, and a duration
60 - `aubioquiet` extracts quiet and loud regions
