Installing PyDub
$ pip install pydub

If using les other than .wav , install ffmpeg via ffmpeg.org

SPOKEN LANGUAGE PROCESSING IN PYTHON


PyDub's main class, AudioSegment
# Import PyDub main class
from pydub import AudioSegment

# Import an audio file


wav_file = AudioSegment.from_file(file="wav_file.wav", format="wav")

# Format parameter only for readability


wav_file = AudioSegment.from_file(file="wav_file.wav")

type(wav_file)

pydub.audio_segment.AudioSegment

SPOKEN LANGUAGE PROCESSING IN PYTHON


Playing an audio le
# Install simpleaudio for wav playback
$pip install simpleaudio

# Import play function


from pydub.playback import play

# Import audio file


wav_file = AudioSegment.from_file(file="wav_file.wav")

# Play audio file


play(wav_file)

SPOKEN LANGUAGE PROCESSING IN PYTHON


Audio parameters
# Import audio files
wav_file = AudioSegment.from_file(file="wav_file.wav")
two_speakers = AudioSegment.from_file(file="two_speakers.wav")

# Check number of channels


wav_file.channels, two_speakers.channels

1, 2

wav_file.frame_rate

480000

SPOKEN LANGUAGE PROCESSING IN PYTHON


Audio parameters
# Find the number of bytes per sample
wav_file.sample_width

# Find the max amplitude


wav_file.max

8488

SPOKEN LANGUAGE PROCESSING IN PYTHON


Audio parameters
# Duration of audio file in milliseconds
len(wav_file)

3284

SPOKEN LANGUAGE PROCESSING IN PYTHON


Changing audio parameters
# Change ATTRIBUTENAME of AudioSegment to x
changeed_audio_segment = audio_segment.set_ATTRIBUTENAME(x)

# Change sample width to 1


wav_file_width_1 = wav_file.sample_width(1)
wav_file_width_1.sample_width

SPOKEN LANGUAGE PROCESSING IN PYTHON


Changing audio parameters
# Change sample rate
wav_file_16k = wav_file.frame_rate(16000)
wav_file_16k.frame_rate

16000

# Change number of channels


wav_file_1_channel = wav_file.set_channels(1)
wav_file_1_channel.channels

Turning it down to 11
# Import audio file
wav_file = AudioSegment.from_file("wav_file.wav")
# Minus 60 dB
quiet_wav_file = wav_file - 60

# Try to recognize quiet audio


recognizer.recognize_google(quiet_wav_file)

Increasing the volume
# Increase the volume by 10 dB
louder_wav_file = wav_file + 10

# Try to recognize
recognizer.recognize_google(louder_wav_file)

this is a wav file

SPOKEN LANGUAGE PROCESSING IN PYTHON


This all sounds the same
# Import AudioSegment and normalize
from pydub import AudioSegment
from pydub.effects import normalize
from pydub.playback import play

# Import uneven sound audio file


loud_quiet = AudioSegment.from_file("loud_quiet.wav")
# Normalize the sound levels
normalized_loud_quiet = normalize(loud_quiet)

# Check the sound


play(normalized_loud_quiet)

Remixing your audio les
# Import audio with static at start
static_at_start = AudioSegment.from_file("static_at_start.wav")

# Remove the static via slicing


no_static_at_start = static_at_start[5000:]

# Check the new sound


play(no_static_at_start)

SPOKEN LANGUAGE PROCESSING IN PYTHON


Remixing your audio les
# Import two audio files
wav_file_1 = AudioSegment.from_file("wav_file_1.wav")
wav_file_2 = AudioSegment.from_file("wav_file_2.wav")

# Combine the two audio files


wav_file_3 = wav_file_1 + wav_file_2

# Check the sound


play(wav_file_3)

# Combine two wav files and make the combination louder


louder_wav_file_3 = wav_file_1 + wav_file_2 + 10

Splitting your audio
# Import phone call audio
phone_call = AudioSegment.from_file("phone_call.wav")
# Find number of channels
phone_call.channels

# Split stereo to mono


phone_call_channels = phone_call.split_to_mono()
phone_call_channels

[<pydub.audio_segment.AudioSegment, <pydub.audio_segment.AudioSegment>]

SPOKEN LANGUAGE PROCESSING IN PYTHON


Splitting your audio
# Find number of channels of first list item
phone_call_channels[0].channels

# Recognize the first channel


recognizer.recognize_google(phone_call_channel_1)

the pydub library is really useful
