onset_detect() takes 0 positional arguments but 2 were given.

I'm running into an error as soon as I try to run it, using the sample code given in your readme.

code:
import timbral_models

frame = r"Downloads\Ingentia60.mp3"
timbre = timbral_models.timbral_extractor(frame)

print(timbre)

error:

Hi @dimsumham. I'm not actively involved with the development of this package, but it looks like we didn't specify the required version of the librosa dependency when this package was first written (about 5 years ago) and since then it appears that librosa's API has changed.

We have a private version of this repository which we use, and I see that there is a specific set of dependencies that we install for it.

You could try and install a specific version of the dependencies with

pip install SoundFile==0.10.2 numba==0.48 librosa==0.6.1 scipy==1.1.0 pyloudnorm==0.1.0

and see if this works. However, if the version of python that you have doesn't have windows versions of these specific dependencies then you may not be able to install them. Unfortunately I'm unable to help if this is the case. Best of luck.

Hi @alastair , thank you very much for taking the time to answer. I will give this a try.

You can try to name arguments to be keyword-only.
For example, you can specify in timbra_util.py and Timbral_hardness.py (or other files with same error) function call's:

• audio_samples to y=audio_samples
• fs to sr=fs
