PyMash

Creates mashups of songs and evaluates which two songs make the best mashup.

Instructions

To mashup songs:

1. Place all songs in one directory
2. Run python run_pymash.py (name_of_directory) (WAV) (NORM) (PCM16) (QUAL)

• name_of_directory (where songs are located) is required
• use WAV if songs are not .wav files
• use NORM if songs are not normalized to have same perceived volume
• use PCM16 to encode songs in PCM16 (usually required)
• use QUAL to obtain quality assessment of each mashup (quality assessment takes a little while to run)

3. Mashups should now be in directory
4. If QUAL was used, look for mashup with largest number in quality.txt -- this should be the best mashup (or at least the best in a scentific, pop-music sense)
