70 <title>DESCRIPTION</title>
72 <para>This manual page documents briefly the <command>&dhpackage;</command> command.</para>
74 <para><command>&dhpackage;</command> is still in an experimental state.
75 Its aim is to extract the melody and output it as a midi stream with a
76 minimal deleay. Pitch candidates are selected at each frame, onset and
77 silences are used to segment the notes.</para>
79 <para>When started without an input file argument (<option>-i</option>),
80 aubionotes creates a jack input and a midi output. When an input file is
81 given, it outputs the results on the console.</para>
86 <title>OPTIONS</title>
88 <para>This program follows the usual GNU command line syntax, with long
89 options starting with two dashes (`-'). A summary of options is included
94 <term><option>-i</option>
95 <option>--input filein</option></term>
97 <para>Run analysis on this audio file. Most common (uncompressed) formats are
102 <term><option>-o</option>
103 <option>--output fileout</option></term>
106 <para>Save results in this file. The file will be created on the model of the
107 input file. Results are marked by a very short wood-block sample.</para>
112 <term><option>-P</option>
113 <option>--pitch mode</option></term>
116 <para>The pitch detection function to run. Available functions are
117 <emphasis>mcomb</emphasis>, <emphasis>yin</emphasis>,
118 <emphasis>fcomb</emphasis> and <emphasis>schmitt</emphasis>.</para>
123 <term><option>-O</option>
124 <option>--onset mode</option></term>
127 <para>The onset detection function to run. Available functions are
128 <emphasis>complexdomain</emphasis>, <emphasis>hfc</emphasis>,
129 <emphasis>phase</emphasis>, <emphasis>specdiff</emphasis>,
130 <emphasis>energy</emphasis>, <emphasis>kl</emphasis> and
131 <emphasis>mkl</emphasis>. By default, both Kullback Liebler (kl) and complex
132 domain are used in parallel.</para>
137 <term><option>-t</option>
138 <option>--threshold value</option></term>
141 <para>Set the threshold value for the onset peak picking. Typical values are
142 within <literal>0.001</literal> and <literal>0.900</literal>. Default is
143 <literal>0.1</literal>. The <emphasis>lower</emphasis> the <emphasis>more
144 sensible</emphasis>. Try <literal>0.3</literal> in case of
145 over-detections.</para>
150 <term><option>-j</option>
151 <option>--jack</option></term>
153 <para>Run in jack mode (default when started without input file) and creates a midi output.</para>
157 <term><option>-h</option>
158 <option>--help</option></term>
160 <para>Show summary of options.</para>
164 <term><option>-v</option>
165 <option>--verbose</option></term>
167 <para>Show results on the console.</para>

189 <para>For now the program has been only tested on audio signals sampled at 44.1
190 kHz. The pitch detectors are also way too cpu-intensive.</para>
