librosa.core.hybrid_cqt

librosa.core.hybrid_cqt(y, sr=22050, hop_length=512, fmin=None, n_bins=84, bins_per_octave=12, tuning=0.0, filter_scale=1, norm=1, sparsity=0.01, window='hann', scale=True, pad_mode='reflect', res_type=None)[source]

Compute the hybrid constant-Q transform of an audio signal.

Here, the hybrid CQT uses the pseudo CQT for higher frequencies where the hop_length is longer than half the filter length and the full CQT for lower frequencies.

Parameters
ynp.ndarray [shape=(n,)]

audio time series

srnumber > 0 [scalar]

sampling rate of y

hop_lengthint > 0 [scalar]

number of samples between successive CQT columns.

fminfloat > 0 [scalar]

Minimum frequency. Defaults to C1 ~= 32.70 Hz

n_binsint > 0 [scalar]

Number of frequency bins, starting at fmin

bins_per_octaveint > 0 [scalar]

Number of bins per octave

tuningNone or float

Tuning offset in fractions of a bin.

If None, tuning will be automatically estimated from the signal.

The minimum frequency of the resulting CQT will be modified to fmin * 2**(tuning / bins_per_octave).

filter_scalefloat > 0

Filter filter_scale factor. Larger values use longer windows.

sparsityfloat in [0, 1)

Sparsify the CQT basis by discarding up to sparsity fraction of the energy in each basis.

Set sparsity=0 to disable sparsification.

windowstr, tuple, number, or function

Window specification for the basis filters. See filters.get_window for details.

pad_modestring

Padding mode for centered frame analysis.

See also: librosa.core.stft and np.pad.

res_typestring

Resampling mode. See librosa.core.cqt for details.

Returns
CQTnp.ndarray [shape=(n_bins, t), dtype=np.float]

Constant-Q energy for each frequency at each time.

Raises
ParameterError

If hop_length is not an integer multiple of 2**(n_bins / bins_per_octave)

Or if y is too short to support the frequency range of the CQT.
