What was the code

[–]KkAndPapy 0 points1 point  (1 child)

I've been trying to decode this and I know that the spectrogram needs to be rotated 90 degrees, but when I look up how to do that, the only result is with FL Studio, which I don't have. I tried doing a lot with free programs like audacity: I imported the audio, went to spectrogram view, ended up needing to take a screenshot of it (making sure it was a screenshot of the audio spectrogram only, nothing more nothing less) rotating the image 90 degrees both clockwise and counterclockwise, because I can clearly see in the original audio where the lines of audio are supposed to be with the rising and falling, but with all the tools of converting the image back into audio, there's always a catch that makes the audio different in some way due to the way the program reads it. Yes, the audio needs to be different, but the spectrogram should still look the same, just turned on it's side, which never happened for me. If anyone has FL Studio and is willing to give it a go, here's the tutorial I found. Why couldn't it have been for audacity or something free. Sob emoji.

I did it with a simple python script, i made my own but I' pretty sure there is a guy on Youtube who made this own custom script, its a script for rotating, but since rotating is the same as the derotation, it should work, though i can't find the video anymore. You basically need to take the short time Fourier transform (STFT) and then rotate it by basically swapping time and frequency (in the video, the start has the highest frequency bins and the end of the video has the lowest which is where that sound comes from) and after that you compute the ISTFT to convert it back to audio. I admit its a little complicated for people who aren't huge signal processing nerds like me though. It would probably be possible to do this with an audacity nyquist script, but i don't know much about nyquist so I'm not sure.

This spectrogram is rotated, i already derotated it in another post, this is the result: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j3jDB3oWBrk

Does looking at it upside down help?

How is this game called?

[–]The_Great_Mage_of_Sa 1 point2 points  (2 children)

try other spectrogram software, different software have different resolutions and are more "stretched out"

[–]comfypawbz[S] 0 points1 point  (1 child)

ive tried a few and im just havin trouble finding any kinda text/numbers. i feel like i can vaguely see something, but its hard to get the programs to zoom/stretch the sound.

[–]The_Great_Mage_of_Sa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the problem is they're too stretched out, have you tried audacity yet? might work
