NAME
aubiopitch -- a command line tool to extract pitch candidates from sound files. SYNOPSIS
aubiopitch [options] -i soundfile DESCRIPTION
aubiopitch attempts to extract fundamental frequency in sound files. When no pitch candidate is found, the output is 0. Five fundamental frequency extraction methods are available. Results can be printed in Hertz or in MIDI pitch. A plotting module is available via the Gnuplot Python package. 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 input sound file -m --mode pitch_detection_mode pitch detection mode [default=mcomb] mcomb|yin|fcomb|schmitt -u --units unitmode output pitch in units [default=Hz] freq|midi|cent|bin -B --bufsize=BUFSIZE buffer size [default=1024] -H --hopsize=HOPSIZE overlap size [default=512] -t --threshold=THRESHOLD pitch threshold (for yin) [default=0.1] -s --silence=SILENCE silence threshold [default=-70] -D --delay=DELAY number of seconds to take back [default=0] -S --smoothing=frames temporal smoothing using a median filter of N frames [default=0] -M --pitchmax=max maximum pitch values to look for (Hz) [default=20000] -l --pitchmin=min minimum pitch values to look for (Hz) [default=20] -n --note NOT IMPLEMENTED output notes -q --quiet be quiet -h --help Show a summary of options. -v --verbose make lots of noise [default] Plotting options When the Python interface to Gnuplot is installed, the following additional options are available. -p --plot draw plot of the pitch track -T --plottruth draw plot of the ground truth pitch track -x --xsize=SIZE define horizontal plot size [default=1.] -y --ysize=SIZE define vertical plot size [default=1.] -O --outplot=OUTPLOT save plot to output.{ps,eps,png,svg} instead of displaying it BUGS
For now the program has only been tested on audio signals sampled at 44.1 kHz. SEE ALSO

NAME
sonic - Speech speed manipulator SYNOPSIS
sonic [OPTION]... inFile outFile DESCRIPTION
Sonic is used to make wav files of speech faster or slower. The primary advance in sonic is the ability to speed speech up by much more than 2X, with minimal distortion. However, sonic can be used for both speeding up and slowing down speech files. Additionally, sonic can change the pitch and volume. OPTIONS
-c Modify pitch by emulating vocal chords vibrating faster or slower. This causes more distortion than the default pitch scaling, but sounds more like the same person trying to talk higher or lower. The default pitch changes makes the voice sound like a larger or smaller person, but introduces little distortion. -p pitch Set pitch scaling factor. 1.3 means 30%% higher. -q Disable all speed-up heuristics, possibly improving the quality slightly. This is mainly used for debugging the speed-up heuris- tics. -r rate Adjust the speed of playback. This sales both the pitch and speed equally. -s speed Set speed up factor. 1.0 means no change, 2.0 means 2X faster. -v scaleFactor Scale volume by scaleFactor. 1.5 increases by 50%. Clips if the maximum range is exceeded. EXAMPLES
sonic -s 3.2 book.wav book_fast.wav The above command would increase the speed of an audio book called book.wav by a factor of 3.2, and write the result in book_fast.wav. sonic -s 0.5 -v 1.5 spanish.wav spanish_slow.wav This would slow down the file spanish.wav by a factor of 2, make the volume 50% louder, and write the result to spanish_slow.wav. sonic -p 2.0 low.wav high.wav This would make a low voice sound very high pitched.
