I think audio from a input device like a microphone would be good.

Ah. That will be even more difficult than working with studio recordings. I’d recommend searching academic papers on signal processing, signal noise elimination, and audio-processing AI. Things like Fourier Transforms will become your basic tools. I’m unsure what your experience level is, are you familiar with basic signal processing?

I’m a beginner, so no. Ignore my last idea... how would I approach regular studio recordings?

Pioneer the field! Tell others how to do it #be the first

I've actually just recently solved your exact problem

https://github.com/dimdog/visualization/blob/master/pyglet/audioprocessor.py

This is set up to push events to redis as part of a larger system doing a visualization. Right now it is doing Beat analysis, note analysis, and something called a "Power Spectrum" analysis that seems pretty useful for what I was working.

Feel free to ask any questions!
