I'm delighted to announce new releases (made last Friday) of Sonic Visualiser and two
related desktop applications from the Centre for Digital Music at Queen Mary, University
of London:
Version 4.0 of Sonic Visualiser, a free, cross-platform, open source application for
viewing and analysing the contents of music audio files, is now available. The main change
in this release, and the reason for the major-version bump to 4.0, is the addition of a
"boxes" layer used to annotate and export time-frequency regions. (Refer to
https://www.sonicvisualiser.org/doc/reference/4.0/en/#boxes for a description of the boxes
layer.) See the home page at
http://sonicvisualiser.org for more information and
downloads.
Version 2.1 of Tony, a free, cross-platform, open source application for high quality
pitch and note transcription from solo vocal recordings, is now available. This is what
you might call a "consolidation release" - it is almost unchanged from 2.0 in
terms of features, but it is updated to fix some compatibility issues that have arisen
since 2.0 came out and to prepare the codebase for a future feature release. See the home
page at
https://www.sonicvisualiser.org/tony/ for more information and downloads.
Version 1.0 of Sonic Lineup, a free, cross-platform, open source application for
comparative simultaneous visualisation of multiple audio files containing versions of the
same source material, is now available. See the home page at
https://www.sonicvisualiser.org/sonic-lineup/ for more information and downloads.
