Usage¶

TempEst is a Vampy plugin written in Python. It uses a wrapper plugin called Vampy which enables its use in any Vamp host such as Sonic Visualiser. For this reason, you need to have Python installed on your machine together with scientific libraries such as Numpy and Scipy. You also need to install Vampy for your OS. You can find information about these on the following web sites.
