Music Hack Day: Useful Resources

This page contains links for some useful resources collected for
Music Hack Day - London 2010 and Music Hack Day - Barcelona 2010.

There are two main groups of resources:

One is related to content based audio analysis (such as the extraction of Key, tempo, beats, etc.. form audio) and includes the QM Vamp Plugins, an open source C++ SDK and Python bindings for writing your own plugin and host programs, and command line tools to analyse large music collections locally or via the internet.
