samp2fft

samp2fft is a script that uses csound to analyse an audio file and extract the frequency and amplitude information.
This utility will create three files: the pvoc analysis file; a text file in "human readable" format; and a text file with the same information in LISP format to be imported by LISP/OM/PWGL.
You will need some basic Shell commands to install and run samp2fft (more).

installation

1. if you don't have it already, install csound
2. donwload the samp2fft here
3. open the Terminal and move samp2fft.sh and pvoc2txt2.csd to /usr/local/bin/
(if you want to put it in another folder you'll have to edit the amp2fft.sh file and change the path of pvoc2text2.csd)
4. make sure all the files are executable (if not use chmod)

running samp2ff.sh

1. open a new Terminal window and type samp2fft.sh (the Shell should recognize the command, if not type /usr/local/bin/.samp2fft.sh
2. enter the data (when entering the directories, don't forget to put / at the end)

notes/restrictions

1. the script was done in a TCSH-Shell. You may have to adapt the script to run on a Bash Shell.
2. samp2fft can analyse only aiff or wave files
3. this program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY. Send me an email if you have any question or suggestion.
