SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Turns audio files into visual spectrograms and common audio feature plots so you can quickly understand frequency content, pitch, timbre, and onset/tempo-related characteristics.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Spectrogram generation: Create standard spectrograms and mel-scaled views for visualizing how energy changes over time.
  • Music and audio feature visualizations: Render chroma, MFCC, loudness, tempogram, self-similarity, spectral flux, and more to support analysis and comparison.
  • Time-slice and multi-panel outputs: Produce cropped segments and combined grids to document or debug specific moments in a track.

Example: You can visualize a guitar riff’s harmonic content (chroma/hpss) and detect possible onset moments (flux) to explain why a generated sound feels out of sync.

Quick Start

Install songsee, then run songsee yourtrack.mp3 -o spectrogram.png to generate a spectrogram image from your audio file.

Frequently Asked Questions about songsee

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I generate a spectrogram from an audio file for frequency analysis?

To generate a spectrogram, run the songsee CLI with your audio input and specify an output image file. This renders frequency content over time, producing a visual plot to analyze energy distribution across the track.

What audio features can I visualize for music information retrieval?

You can visualize MFCC, chroma, spectral flux, loudness, and tempogram features. These plots help analyze pitch, timbre, and onset characteristics to support music information retrieval and track comparison.

Can I visualize a specific time range of an audio track?

Yes, you can produce time-slice outputs to crop specific segments. This allows you to inspect and document particular moments in a track, such as analyzing a isolated guitar riff or debugging a specific onset.

How do I debug a synthesis pipeline using audio feature visualizations?

You can debug synthesis pipelines by generating multi-panel outputs combining spectral flux and chroma views. Comparing these visualizations helps detect onset timing issues and explain why generated sounds feel out of sync.

Does songsee require any external dependencies to render audio plots?

Yes, generating visualizations requires the songsee CLI to render selected visualization types like mel spectrograms or MFCC plots. The tool then outputs the results as configurable image files for documentation.

What is the best way to compare mel-scaled spectrograms and chroma features?

The best way to compare features is generating combined multi-panel grids. This outputs multiple visualization types side-by-side, allowing you to compare mel-scaled energy views with chroma pitch content simultaneously.
