Installation

Usage

Python

Add to an NWB file

from pynwb import NWBFile
from scipy.io import wavfile
from ndx_sound import AcousticWaveformSeries

sampling_rate, samples = wavfile.read(filepath)

acoustic_waveform_series = AcousticWaveformSeries(
    name="acoustic_stimulus",
    data=samples,
    rate=sampling_rate,
    description="acoustic stimulus",
)

nwbfile = NWBFile(...)
# if a recording of behavior, add to acquisition
nwbfile.add_acquisition(acoustic_waveform_series)

# if a stimulus, add to stimulus
nwbfile.add_stimulus(acoustic_waveform_series)

Visualization

Use plot_sound on its own outside nwbwidgets.

from ndx_sound.widgets import plot_sound

plot_sound(nwbfile.stimulus["acoustic_stimulus"])

Use acoustic_waveform_widget to include an Audio element that plays the sound.

from ndx_sound.widgets import acoustic_waveform_widget

acoustic_waveform_widget(nwb.stimulus["acoustic_stimulus"])

You can also have the sound widget automatically loaded into nwb2widget.

from ndx_sound import widgets

Then run nwb2widget as normal.

from nwbwidgets import nwb2widget

nwb2widget(nwbfile)
