Sound analysis/synthesis tools for music applications written in python (with a bit of C) plus complementary teaching materials.
I will not only update the notebooks and workspace folders, but also put my study notes in the studynotes folder.
In order to use these tools you have to install python (recommended 3.7.x) and the following modules: ipython, numpy, matplotlib, scipy, and cython.
In Ubuntu (which we strongly recommend) in order to install all these modules it is as simple as typing in the Terminal:
$ sudo apt-get install python-dev ipython python-numpy python-matplotlib python-scipy cython
In OSX (which we do not support but that should work) you install these modules by typing in the Terminal:
$ pip install ipython numpy matplotlib scipy cython
then, for using the tools, after downloading the whole package, you need to compile some C functions. For that you should go to the directory software/models/utilFunctions_C and type:
$ python compileModule.py build_ext --inplace
The basic sound analysis/synthesis functions, or models, are in the directory software/models and there is a graphical interface and individual example functions in software/models_interface. To execute the models GUI you have to go to the directory software/models_interface and type:
$ python models_GUI.py
To execute the transformations GUI that calls various sound transformation functions go to the directory software/transformations_interface and type:
$ python transformations_GUI.py
To modify the existing code, or to create your own using some of the functions, we recommend to use the workspace directory. Typically you would copy a file from software/models_interface or from software/transformations_interface to that directory, modify the code, and execute it from there (you will have to change some of the paths inside the files).
Install Jupyter Notebook according to it's instructions https://jupyter.org/install
Start up jupyter notebook
$ jupyter notebook
Follow instructions appearing in the console regarding navigating your browser to the notebook
All the code is in the software directory, with subdirectories for the models, the transformations, and the interfaces. The lecture materials are in the lectures directory, the assignments related to the lectures in the assignments directory, and the sounds used for the examples and coming from http://freesound.org are in the sounds directory.
