AUBIOONSET(1) General Commands Manual AUBIOONSET(1)
NAME
aubioonset -- a command line tool for real time onset extraction
SYNOPSIS
aubioonset [options] [-i soundfile]
DESCRIPTION
aubioonset attempts to detect onset times, the beginning of discreted sound events, in audio signals.
When started without an input file argument (--input), aubioonset creates jack input and output ports. When an input file is given, the
results are given on the console.
OPTIONS
This program follows the usual GNU command line syntax, with long options starting with two dashes (`-'). A summary of options is included
below.
-i --input filein
Run analysis on this audio file. Most common uncompressed formats are supported.
-o --output fileout
Save results in this file. The file will be created on the model of the input file. Results are marked by a short wood-block sam-
ple.
-O --onset mode
The onset detection function to run. Available functions are complexdomain, hfc, phase, specdiff, energy, kl and mkl. By default,
both Kullback Liebler (kl) and complex domain are used in parallel.
-t --threshold value
Set the threshold value for the onset peak picking. Typical values are within 0.001 and 0.900. Default is 0.1. Lower threshold
values imply more onsets detected. Try 0.3 in case of over-detections.
-j --jack
Run in jack mode (default when started without input file) and creates a midi output.
-v --verbose
Show results on the console (default).
-h --help
Show summary of options.
BUGS
For now the program has only been tested on audio signals sampled at 44.1 kHz.
