Spectrograms are a form of simple time-frequency analysis which + lets you see how the distribution of energy at different frequencies + in an audio stream change over time. For example, if you play a scale + on a musical instrument, you will see a climbing and/or descending + pattern of blobs as you move from left to right. + Spectromatic reads its input as mono or stereo 16-bit wave files, and + writes the output image to an elongated PNG image (colour for stereo, + grayscale for mono audio). +</longdescription> </pkgmetadata> |
