librosa.util.buf_to_float
- librosa.util.buf_to_float(x, n_bytes=2, dtype=<class 'numpy.float32'>)[source]
Convert an integer buffer to floating point values. This is primarily useful when loading integer-valued wav data into numpy arrays.
- Parameters:
- xnp.ndarray [dtype=int]
The integer-valued data buffer
- n_bytesint [1, 2, 4]
The number of bytes per sample in
x
- dtypenumeric type
The target output type (default: 32-bit float)
- Returns:
- x_floatnp.ndarray [dtype=float]
The input data buffer cast to floating point
