barkbands​

barkbands(
    @numberbands 27
    @samplerate 44100
    @mode 0
) -> llll

Generates audio descriptor to compute the Bark bands of a spectrum. For each bark band the power-spectrum—i.e., mag-squared—is summed. See analyze.

The resulting buffer will be updated with the following keys:

  • barkbands
info

barkbands is a mirror implementation of the same algorithm in the Essentia library. For more details on the algorithm, please check the Essentia Algorithms reference.

Arguments​

  • @numberbands [int]: number of desired barkbands. (default: 27).
  • @samplerate [int]: sampling rate. (default: 44100).
  • @mode [int]: analysis mode. (default: 0).
    • 0: global
    • 1: time series
    • 2: time-tagged time series
    • 3: buffer

Output​

barkbands descriptor [llll]

Usage​

barkbands is meant to be used with the analyze function:

$buffer = importaudio('singing.wav'); ## input buffer
$descr = barkbands(); ## generate barkbands audio descriptor
$buffer.inspect('before analysis');
$buffer = $buffer.analyze($descr); ## apply analysis
$buffer.inspect('after analysis')
