NAME
aubioonset - a command line tool to extract musical onset times
SYNOPSIS
aubioonset source
aubioonset [[-i] source] [-o sink]
[-r rate] [-B win] [-H hop]
[-O method] [-t thres]
[-s sil] [-m] [-f]
[-j] [-v] [-h]
DESCRIPTION
aubioonset attempts to detect onset times, the beginning of discrete sound
events, in audio signals.
When started with an input source (-i/--input), the detected onset times are
given on the console, in seconds.
When started without an input source, or with the jack option (-j/--jack),
aubioonset starts in jack mode.
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 source Run analysis on this audio file. Most uncompressed and
compressed are supported, depending on how aubio was built.
-o, --output sink Save results in this file. The file will be created on
the model of the input file. Onset times are marked by a short wood-block
like sound.
-r, --samplerate rate Fetch the input source, resampled at the given
sampling rate. The rate should be specified in Hertz as an integer. If 0,
the sampling rate of the original source will be used. Defaults to 0.
-B, --bufsize win The size of the buffer to analyze, that is the length
of the window used for spectral and temporal computations. Defaults to 512.
-H, --hopsize hop The number of samples between two consecutive analysis.
Defaults to 256.
-O, --onset method The onset detection method to use. See ONSET METHODS
below. Defaults to 'default'.
-t, --onset-threshold thres Set the threshold value for the onset peak
picking. Typical values are typically within 0.001 and 0.900. Defaults to
0.1. Lower threshold values imply more onsets detected. Try 0.5 in case of
over-detections. Defaults to 0.3.
-s, --silence sil Set the silence threshold, in dB, under which the pitch
will not be detected. A value of -20.0 would eliminate most onsets but the
loudest ones. A value of -90.0 would select all onsets. Defaults to -90.0.
-m, --mix-input Mix source signal to the output signal before writing to
sink.
-f, --force-overwrite Overwrite output file if it already exists.
-j, --jack Use Jack input/output. You will need a Jack connection
controller to feed aubio some signal and listen to its output.
-h, --help Print a short help message and exit.
-v, --verbose Be verbose.
ONSET METHODS
Available methods are:
default Default distance, currently hfc
Default: 'default' (currently set to hfc)
energy Energy based distance
This function calculates the local energy of the input spectral frame.
hfc High-Frequency content
This method computes the High Frequency Content (HFC) of the input
spectral frame. The resulting function is efficient at detecting
percussive onsets.

Musical Signal. PhD dissertation, University of Bristol, UK, 1996.
complex Complex domain onset detection function
This function uses information both in frequency and in phase to determine
changes in the spectral content that might correspond to musical onsets.
It is best suited for complex signals such as polyphonic recordings.

This function uses information both in frequency and in phase to determine
changes in the spectral content that might correspond to musical onsets. It
is best suited for complex signals such as polyphonic recordings.
