      <title>Fun Audio Processing using Python on Colab</title>
      <dc:creator>Vijaykumar</dc:creator>

      <guid>https://forem.com/vjkr/fun-audio-processing-using-python-on-colab-5ffi</guid>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;This is a part of the code i used for "Simple Disco Jockey" lightning talk in EuroPython 2020. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The code uses a Python package- &lt;a href="https://pypi.org/project/librosa/"&gt;Librosa&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h4&gt;
  
  
  The Google Colab Notebook &lt;a href="https://colab.research.google.com/drive/1is-uPUrVuYn5Scyl5oL7w2J02y914q1m?usp=sharing"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt; can be run online. You can create a copy for yourself and work on any music. I have tested for .mp3 and .wav files.
&lt;/h4&gt;

&lt;h6&gt;
  
  
  If music files are missing. Sign in and upload any music files using folder button on the left pane. Click on run/play symbol sequentially from first to last.
&lt;/h6&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In the below image&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;1. Sample music file&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;2. File with slower tempo&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;3. File with faster tempo&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;4. File with clicks added

&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;h4&gt;
  
  
  &lt;em&gt;Let us party! A song!&lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/h4&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In the below image&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;1. Song&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;2. Song with clicks
&lt;img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/practicaldev/image/fetch/s--XufzpuDg--/c_limit%2Cf_auto%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_auto%2Cw_880/https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/i/l6cvuuy1ao12ndsx4dk2.PNG" alt="Alt Text2"&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Thanks!&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

      <description>&lt;h4&gt;
  
  
  &lt;em&gt;Summary for shorter read&lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/h4&gt;

&lt;h5&gt;
  
  
  *Someone has to push you for you to put your first pull request.
&lt;/h5&gt;

&lt;h5&gt;
  
  
  *Open Source Community will provide u your personal KNIGHT. You have to ask for it.
&lt;/h5&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;
  
  
  &lt;em&gt;Longer version below(Grab a coffee)&lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This is my experience from &lt;a href="https://ep2020.europython.eu/" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;EuroPython&lt;/a&gt; Online Sprint 2020! The Sprint I took reluctantly! &lt;a href="https://media.dev.to/dynamic/image/width=800%2Cheight=%2Cfit=scale-down%2Cgravity=auto%2Cformat=auto/https%3A%2F%2Fdev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fi%2Fuplj57aoq3le5uf49nfq.png" class="article-body-image-wrapper"&gt;&lt;img src="https://media.dev.to/dynamic/image/width=800%2Cheight=%2Cfit=scale-down%2Cgravity=auto%2Cformat=auto/https%3A%2F%2Fdev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fi%2Fuplj57aoq3le5uf49nfq.png" alt="Alt Text"&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;br&gt;
I am from an electronics background. Had a github account from many years. Put a github.io page &lt;a href="https://vjkr.github.io/" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;. But never took any part of GitHub seriously. Reason..&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h4&gt;
  
  
  &lt;em&gt;Github pages frightened me.&lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/h4&gt;

&lt;h5&gt;
  
  
  They were like a terminal with white background and every word looking like a command!!
&lt;/h5&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Well. I took a part in &lt;a href="https://github.com/quantumblacklabs/kedro" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;Kedro&lt;/a&gt; sprint. There appeared Lais Carvalho who was kind enough to type 3 paragraph answer for my '2 lines question and a sad smiley'. She directed to this amazing &lt;a href="https://slides.com/cheukting_ho/1st_pr" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;First PR slideshow&lt;/a&gt; by Cheuk Ho. Also asking me to complete asap! I was like okay... Now I have to work. I declared Lais as my KNIGHT!!!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Lais and Yetunde(PM of Kedro) guided me in every single step. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h4&gt;
  
  
  I was also given special customized "beginner"-"easy"-"documentation" issues with work with.
&lt;/h4&gt;

&lt;h4&gt;
  
  
  All I had to do was delete text inside a square bracket.:)
&lt;/h4&gt;

&lt;p&gt;And then the long wait to get your PR merged to master! Voila!! My first contribution. Yetunde(rightly addressed as Queen by Lais) bestowed upon me contributor role on the &lt;a href="https://github.com/quantumblacklabs/kedro/blob/master/RELEASE.md" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;Release&lt;/a&gt; page. I assured Yetunde that I will be narrating  about her whole life.. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h4&gt;
  
  
  "Yetudada made me merge my first PR - deleting of text" and this made me a contributor. DELETE YET CONTRIBUTE!!
&lt;/h4&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://media.dev.to/dynamic/image/width=800%2Cheight=%2Cfit=scale-down%2Cgravity=auto%2Cformat=auto/https%3A%2F%2Fdev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fi%2Ffnmha1wflwhdx9mb0gpd.JPG" class="article-body-image-wrapper"&gt;&lt;img src="https://media.dev.to/dynamic/image/width=800%2Cheight=%2Cfit=scale-down%2Cgravity=auto%2Cformat=auto/https%3A%2F%2Fdev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fi%2Ffnmha1wflwhdx9mb0gpd.JPG" alt="Alt Text"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Thanks Lais and Yetunde for getting me my first open source contribution. Any one needing any basic assistance. Ping me! &lt;/p&gt;
