soundfile - Name of the input soundfile.
The following flags are available for envext (The default values are stated in parenthesis):
| -o fnam Name of output filename (newenv) |
| -w size (in seconds) of analysis window (0.25) |
The envext utility generates a text file containing time and amplitude pairs by finding the absolute peak within each window.
Here is an example of the envext utility. Play envext.csd
Example 1360. Example of the envext utility.
See the sections Real-time Audio and Command Line Flags for more information on using command line flags.
