Analysis of pitches

Post by bdeschenes »

Hi everyone, hi Mr. Hairer,

I am looking for an audio analysis software or add-on for Amadeus Pro that could analyze a short WAV files and give me both the pitches of the notes and their frequencies.

I have been looking around. The only one I could find so far is Melodyne, but it is $399, which is much too expensive for my needs.

Any suggestion will be most appreciated.

Thanks a lot! Bruno

Dear Bruno,

If you're just looking for the frequencies of a few individual notes, you can use the built-in
Sonogram and Spectrum tools (see the Analyze menu). Best,

Yes, but spectrum gives the frequencies, but not the notes name.

Actually, if you put the hairline at the frequency it gives the
frequency and the note name based on 440 A.

Is there a way to use the Spectrum function, which clusters many frequencies around each primary tone, to more immediately identify those primaries?

You can certainly change what you see on a sine wave by changing the
windowing function -- whether it will really help in the case of reql
music with real instrumentalists and singers, I have my doubts.
