libtsm 1.1.1

Python Package for Time-Scale Modification and Pitch-Shifting

libtsm

A Python toolbox for Time-Scale Modification (TSM) and Pitch-Shifting.

Details and example application:

Contributing

We are happy for suggestions and contributions. However, to facilitate the synchronization, we would be grateful for either directly contacting us via email ([e-mail]) or for creating an issue in our GitHub repository. Please do not submit a pull request without prior consultation with us.

If you want to report an issue with libtsm or seek support, please use the same communication channels (email or GitHub issue).

Tests

Central to our tests is the comparison of libtsm with the MATLAB TSM Toolbox. To this end, please execute tests/test_matlab.m in MATLAB to create the MATLAB output. Then, you can use pytest for executing our Python test scripts. pytest is available when installing libtsm with the extra requirements for testing.

pip install 'libtsm[tests]'
pytest
