acousondePy

Translate Acousonde MT files

This software lets you load any Acousonde produced MT files and convert them into easier to use formats.

• Acoustic data files are converted into wav files
• Header information is stored as csv file
• Auxiliary data if present is concatenated into one csv file

For more information on Acousonde visit the Acousonde website

Currently there are 4 functions available:

• MTread() to read one MT file
• spec_plot(p,HEADER,INFO) to create a spectrogram plot
• read_multiple_MT() to read a list of MT files
• acousonde() starts a GUI which allows you to convert slected MT files

Acousonde is available on Pypi

A single Windows executable file of acousonde() which can be used without the need of any programming/scripting and does not require the user to have Python isnstalled can be obtained from Sourceforge.
