NAME
     aubiomfcc	-  a command line tool to compute Mel-Frequency Cepstrum Coeffi-
     cients

SYNOPSIS
     aubiomfcc source
     aubiomfcc [[-i] source]
	       [-r rate] [-B win] [-H hop]
	       [-T time-format]
	       [-v] [-h]

DESCRIPTION
     aubiomfcc compute the Mel-Frequency Cepstrum Coefficients (MFCC).

     MFCCs are coefficients that make up for the mel-frequency spectrum, a  rep-
     resentation of the short-term power spectrum of a sound. By default, 13 co-
     efficients are computed using 40 filters.

     When  started with an input source (-i/--input), the coefficients are given
     on the console, prefixed by their timestamps in seconds.

OPTIONS
     This program follows the usual GNU command line syntax, with  long  options
     starting with two dashes (--). A summary of options is included below.

     -i, --input source
	    Run  analysis  on  this audio file. Most uncompressed and compressed
	    are supported, depending on how aubio was built.

     -r, --samplerate rate
	    Fetch the input source, resampled at the given  sampling  rate.  The
	    rate  should be specified in Hertz as an integer. If 0, the sampling
	    rate of the original source will be used. Defaults to 0.

     -B, --bufsize win
	    The size of the buffer to analyze, that is the length of the  window
	    used for spectral and temporal computations. Defaults to 512.

     -H, --hopsize hop
	    The number of samples between two consecutive analysis.  Defaults to
	    256.

     -T, --timeformat format
	    Set time format (samples, ms, seconds). Defaults to seconds.

     -h, --help
	    Print a short help message and exit.

     -v, --verbose
	    Be verbose.

REFERENCES
     Using  the default parameters, the filter coefficients will be computed ac-
     cording to Malcolm Slaney's Auditory Toolbox, available  at  the  following
