Tony¶

• Started in 2013
• Dedicated tool for sung-pitch annotation and note segmentation
• Uses Matthias Mauch's pYIN pitch-tracking plugin
• Informed by the work needed in Bittner, Salamon, Tierney, Mauch, Cannam, & Bello, MedleyDB: A Multitrack Dataset for Annotation-Intensive MIR Research and Mauch, Frieler, & Dixon Intonation in unaccompanied singing: Accuracy, drift, and a model of reference pitch memory
• (Despite relatively good results with Tony, all manual annotation was still dropped from MedleyDB 2.0 as too labour-intensive)
• See Tony project page - new release planned for later this summer
