What problem does it solve?
songsee removes the manual work of visually inspecting audio by generating spectrograms and common audio features so you can quickly understand what’s happening in a track.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Spectrogram generation: Create standard frequency spectrograms and mel-scaled views for visualizing timbre and energy across time.
- Audio feature visualizations: Render multi-panel outputs including chroma, MFCC, self-similarity, loudness, tempogram, and spectral flux for analysis and comparison.
- Workflow-friendly CLI: Produce consistent output images from files or stdin, optionally focusing on a specific time slice for targeted debugging or documentation.
Use case: Compare two versions of a song by generating matching grids (e.g., spectrogram, mel, MFCC, flux) to spot differences in pitch content, onset activity, and timbral changes.
Quick Start
Run songsee on an MP3 file and save a multi-panel visualization grid to an image with spectrogram, mel, chroma, mfcc, and flux.
