NAME
       WaoN - a Wave-to-Notes transcriber

SYNOPSIS
       waon [option ...]

DESCRIPTION
       WaoN is a Wave-to-Notes transcriber, that is, a converter from sound
       file to midi file.

OPTIONS
       -h, --help
              print this help.

       -v, --version
              print version information.

       OPTIONS FOR FILES

       -i, --input
              input wav file (default: stdin)

       -o, --output
              output mid file (default: 'output.mid')

              options -i and -o have argument '-' as stdin/stdout

       -p, --patch
              patch file (default: no patch)

       FFT OPTIONS

       -n     sampling number from WAV in 1 step (default: 2048)

       -w, --window
              0 no window
              1 parzen window
              2 welch window
              3 hanning window (default)
              4 hamming window
              5 blackman window
              6 steeper 30-dB/octave rolloff window

       READING WAV OPTIONS

       -s, --shift
              shift number from WAV in 1 step (default: 1/4 of the value in -n
              option)

       PHASE-VOCODER OPTIONS

       -nophase
              don't use phase diff to improve freq estimation.  (default: use
              the correction)

       NOTE SELECTION OPTIONS

       -c, --cutoff
              log10 of cut-off ratio to scale velocity of note (default: -5.0)

       -r, --relative
              log10 of cut-off ratio relative to the average.  (default: no
              relative cutoff = absolute cutoff with the value in -c option)

       -k, --peak
              peak threshold for note-on, which ranges [0,127] (default: 128 =
              no peak-search = search only first on-event)

       -t, --top
              top note [midi #] (default: 103 = G7)

       -b, --bottom
              bottom note [midi #] (default: 28 = E1)

              Here middle C (261 Hz) = C4 = midi 60. Midi # ranges [0,127].

       -a, --adjust
              adjust-pitch param, which is suggested by WaoN after analysis.
              unit is half-note, that is, +1 is half-note up, and -0.5 is
              quater-note down. (default: 0)

       DRUM-REMOVAL OPTIONS

       -psub-n
              number of averaging bins in one side.  that is, for n,
              (i-n,...,i,...,i+n) are averaged (default: 0)

       -psub-f
              factor to the average, where the power is modified as p[i] =
              (sqrt(p[i]) - f * sqrt(ave[i]))^2 (default: 0.0)

       OCTAVE-REMOVAL OPTIONS

       -oct   factor to the octave removal, where the power is modified as

              p[i] = (sqrt(p[i]) - f * sqrt(oct[i]))^2 (default: 0.0)
