Go to Theory.md to get the indepth explanation of the theory behind the system.

After:

• Clone the project to your local computer.

• Make sure have a stable python

• Install the following packages

  For GUI:

  Choose your favorite GUI library to build. The options are:

  • Kivy
  • KivyMD
  • PyQT
  • tKinter

  !!! Disclaimer-1: Choose wisely considering ease of use and quality output...

  For the logic and backend:

  Take note to always use a python version compatible with the libraries. At inintial development we used python version 3.6 because pyAudio wouldn't install on later versions of python 3.7+. I am currently running python 3.8.10 from WSL2 and it works fine.

  • Create a virtual environment using virtualenv or virtualenvwrapper
  • If using windows make sure your visual c++ and build tools are installed. Hence you may need to have visual studio installed on your computer.
  • If you are using WSL/WSL2 OR linux, you may need to install the following packages:
    • libasound2-dev
    • portaudio19-dev
    • libportaudio2
    • libportaudiocpp0
    • ffmpeg
    • libav-tools
    • libavcodec-extra Run the following command to install the required packages:

  $ sudo apt-get install libasound-dev portaudio19-dev libportaudio2 libportaudiocpp0
  $ sudo apt-get install ffmpeg

  • activate your environment: "myenv\Scripts\activate" for virtualenv and "workon myenv" for virtualenvwrapper.
  • install the requirements needed for the project: "pip install -r requirements.txt"
  • Run the multithreading.py file.

  !!! Disclaimer-2: WSL2 might have issues with connecting to audio devices from a windows machine. Solution would be using a USB device or IP

  You are welcome to contribute to this project. Just star the project and cite it in your work

  We developed it during a process to find a solution to an assignment in the course: Audio and Speech Signal Processing under the Computer Engineering undergraduate programme at university.

  We were asked to develop a simple audio processing application using what we had learnt. And so we came up with the idea as a small project.

  A big shoutout Matt Zucker from Philadelphia for the repository that guided us through the creation of this application.....

  MINI-PROJECT YOU CAN PLAY WITH:

  As I was building the tuner or note identifier, I also build a recorder that takes in the length of the recording(time in seconds) & the name of the file as imputs. You can also use this to your advantage.

  $ cd recorder
  $ python recorder.py
