Abstract

Digital Audio Workstations (DAW) are tools for mastering and mixing audio files, in the broader context of large-scale audio processing. Among many other processes, they allow users to perform advanced processes (e.g. Mastering and Equalization) on audio files and apply a chains of audio effects (e.g. Gain, reverb) using sophisticated GUI. DAWs has proven to be a useful resource for Digital Signal Processing (DSP) tasks, and in particular for music production. While the tools are powerful and stable, utilizing tools that require a certain level of knowledge and background in music production and sound processing can be messy and error prone. We propose a solution that allows batch processing of audio file in a fast and prompt manner carrying out some of the popular digital signal processing techniques. The proposed solution, py DAW, is in the form of an open-source tool for users who cannot afford using DAWs for their cost or complexity. pyDAW is a lean Python Command Line Interface (CLI) that provides a simple interface to complement regular DAWs GUI environments, making it easier to run DAWs functionalities in a batch and simple manner.

pyDAW:一个实用的数字音频处理命令行

数字音频工作站(DAW)是在大规模音频处理的更广泛背景下用于控制和混合音频文件的工具。在许多其他过程中，它们允许用户在音频文件上执行高级过程(例如母版和均衡)，并使用复杂的GUI应用音频效果链(例如增益，混响)。DAWs已被证明是数字信号处理(DSP)任务的有用资源，特别是音乐制作。虽然这些工具功能强大且稳定，但使用需要一定知识水平和音乐制作和声音处理背景的工具可能会很混乱且容易出错。我们提出了一个解决方案，允许批量处理音频文件在一个快速和及时的方式执行一些流行的数字信号处理技术。所建议的解决方案py DAW以开源工具的形式提供给那些由于成本或复杂性而无法负担使用DAW的用户。pyDAW是一个精简的Python命令行界面(CLI)，它提供了一个简单的界面来补充常规的DAWs GUI环境，从而更容易以批处理和简单的方式运行DAWs功能。
