Come and learn about the process of analyzing musical performances both in general and using the MATLAB-based Automatic Music Performance Analysis and Comparison Toolkit (AMPACT). The workshop will primarily focus on extracting performance data for audio recordings for which is a corresponding musical score is available, but will also consider workarounds for audio without a corresponding score. Topics include: extracting low-level audio features, summarizing low-level features at the musical note-, beat-, and measure-levels, encoding performance data, and making comparisons between performances.
