ENVEXT(1)						  The Canonical Csound Reference						 ENVEXT(1)

NAME

       envext - Extracts the envelope of a file to a text file. .

SYNTAX

	   envext [-flags] soundfile

	   csound -U envext [-flags] soundfile

INITIALIZATION

       soundfile - Name of the input soundfile.

       The following flags are available for envext (The default values are stated in parenthesis):
	   -o fnam Name of output filename (newenv)
	   -w size (in seconds) of analysis window (0.25)

       The envext utility generates a text file containing time and amplitude pairs by finding the absolute peak within each window.

EXAMPLE

       Using the command (while in the manual directory):

	   csound -U envext examples/mary.wav

       will produce the a text file containing the following:

	     0.000   0.000
	     0.000   0.000
	     0.250   0.000
	     0.500   0.000
	     0.750   0.000
	     1.249   0.170
