I'm writing a code to analyse a single audio frequency sung by a voice. I need a way to analyse the frequency of the note. Currently I am using PyAudio to record the audio file, which is stored as a .wav
, and then immediately play it back.
import numpy as np
import pyaudio
import wave
# open up a wave
wf = wave.open('file.wav', 'rb')
swidth = wf.getsampwidth()
RATE = wf.getframerate()
# use a Blackman window
window = np.blackman(chunk)
# open stream
p = pyaudio.PyAudio()
stream = p.open(format =
p.get_format_from_width(wf.getsampwidth()),
channels = wf.getnchannels(),
rate = RATE,
output = True)
# read some data
data = wf.readframes(chunk)
print(len(data))
print(chunk*swidth)
# play stream and find the frequency of each chunk
while len(data) == chunk*swidth:
# write data out to the audio stream
stream.write(data)
# unpack the data and times by the hamming window
indata = np.array(wave.struct.unpack("%dh"%(len(data)/swidth),\
data))*window
# Take the fft and square each value
fftData=abs(np.fft.rfft(indata))**2
# find the maximum
which = fftData[1:].argmax() + 1
# use quadratic interpolation around the max
if which != len(fftData)-1:
y0,y1,y2 = np.log(fftData[which-1:which+2:])
x1 = (y2 - y0) * .5 / (2 * y1 - y2 - y0)
# find the frequency and output it
thefreq = (which+x1)*RATE/chunk
print("The freq is %f Hz." % (thefreq))
else:
thefreq = which*RATE/chunk
print("The freq is %f Hz." % (thefreq))
# read some more data
data = wf.readframes(chunk)
if data:
stream.write(data)
stream.close()
p.terminate()
The problem is with the while loop. The condition is never true for some reason. I printed out the two values (len(data) and (chunk*swidth)), and they were 8192 and 4096 respectively. I then tried using 2*chunk*swidth in the while loop, which threw this error:

ValueError: operands could not be broadcast together with shapes (4096,) (2048,)
