## Function Documentation

## aubio_cleanup()

void aubio_cleanup | ( | void |  | ) |

clean up cached memory at the end of program

This function should be used at the end of programs to purge all cached memory. So far it is only useful to clean FFTW's cache.

Examples
  onset/test-onset.c, pitch/test-pitch.c, spectral/test-fft.c, spectral/test-filterbank.c, spectral/test-filterbank_mel.c, spectral/test-mfcc.c, spectral/test-phasevoc.c, spectral/test-specdesc.c, spectral/test-tss.c, synth/test-sampler.c, synth/test-wavetable.c, tempo/test-tempo.c, and temporal/test-filter.c.

## aubio_db_spl()

smpl_t aubio_db_spl | ( | const fvec_t * | v | ) |

compute sound pressure level (SPL) in dB

This quantity is often wrongly called 'loudness'.

This gives ten times the log10 of the average of the square amplitudes.

Parameters

  v | vector to compute dB SPL from

Returns
  level of v in dB SPL

## aubio_hztomel()

smpl_t aubio_hztomel | ( | smpl_t | freq | ) |

convert frequency (Hz) to mel

Parameters

  freq | input frequency, in Hz

Returns
  output mel

Converts a scalar from the frequency domain to the mel scale using Slaney Auditory Toolbox's implementation:

If \( f < 1000 \), \( m = 3 f / 200 \).

If \( f >= 1000 \), \( m = 1000 + 27 \frac{{ln}(f) - ln(1000))} {{ln}(6400) - ln(1000)} \)

## aubio_hztomel_htk()

smpl_t aubio_hztomel_htk | ( | smpl_t | freq | ) |

convert frequency (Hz) to mel

Parameters

  freq | input frequency, in Hz

Returns
  output mel

Converts a scalar from the frequency domain to the mel scale, using the equation defined by O'Shaughnessy, as implemented in the HTK speech recognition toolkit:

\( m = 1127 + ln(1 + \frac{f}{700}) \)

## aubio_level_detection()

smpl_t aubio_level_detection | ( | const fvec_t * | v,
|  | smpl_t | threshold )

get buffer level if level >= threshold, 1.

otherwise

Parameters

  v | vector to get level from
  threshold | threshold in dB SPL

Returns
  level in dB SPL if level >= threshold, 1. otherwise

## aubio_level_lin()

smpl_t aubio_level_lin | ( | const fvec_t * | v | ) |

compute sound level on a linear scale

This gives the average of the square amplitudes.

Parameters

  v | vector to compute level from

Returns
  level of v

Examples
  examples/aubiopitch.c.

## aubio_meltohz()

smpl_t aubio_meltohz | ( | smpl_t | mel | ) |

convert mel to frequency (Hz)

Parameters

  mel | input mel

Returns
  output frequency, in Hz

Converts a scalar from the mel scale to the frequency domain using Slaney Auditory Toolbox's implementation:

If \( f < 1000 \), \( f = 200 m/3 \).

If \( f \geq 1000 \), \( f = 1000 + \left(\frac{6400}{1000}\right) ^{\frac{m - 1000}{27}} \)

## aubio_meltohz_htk()

smpl_t aubio_meltohz_htk | ( | smpl_t | mel | ) |

convert mel to frequency (Hz)

Parameters

  mel | input mel

Returns
  output frequency, in Hz

Converts a scalar from the mel scale to the frequency domain, using the equation defined by O'Shaughnessy, as implemented in the HTK speech recognition toolkit:

\( f = 700 * {e}^\left(\frac{f}{1127} - 1\right) \)

## aubio_zero_crossing_rate()

smpl_t aubio_zero_crossing_rate | ( | fvec_t * | v | ) |
