Matchering CLI

Simple Matchering 2.0 Command Line Application

Compact and easy-to-use CLI app for working with the Matchering python library. Use it for audio batch processing.

Features

Installation

Ubuntu 20.04 LTS

  1. Install the necessary dependencies

sudo apt update && sudo apt -y install libsndfile1 ffmpeg python3-pip

  1. Clone the repo and move to the directory

git clone https://github.com/sergree/matchering-cli && cd matchering-cli

  1. Install dependencies from requirements.txt

python3 -m pip install -r requirements.txt

Windows 10

  1. Install Anaconda Python/R Distribution

  2. Install FFmpeg to C:\ffmpeg and add C:\ffmpeg\bin to the PATH variable

HOWTO

  1. Run Anaconda Prompt (Anaconda3) and move to the cloned matchering-cli directory

cd C:\Users\<your_username>\Downloads\matchering-cli

  1. Install dependencies from requirements.txt

python -m pip install -r requirements.txt

Usage

python3 mg_cli.py my_song.wav some_popular_song.wav my_song_master_16bit.wav

python3 mg_cli.py my_song.wav some_popular_song.wav my_song_master_16bit.wav --log process.log

python3 mg_cli.py target.wav reference.wav result_24bit.wav -b24 --no_limiter

python3 mg_cli.py target.wav reference.wav result_32bit.wav -b32 --no_limiter --dont_normalize

Use python in Windows instead of python3

Also you can run it without python3 in front, if mg_cli.py has +x permission:

sudo chmod +x mg_cli.py

And then:

./mg_cli.py my_song.wav some_popular_song.wav my_song_master_16bit.wav

usage: mg_cli.py [-h] [-b {16,24,32}] [--log LOG] [--no_limiter]
                 [--dont_normalize]
                 target reference result

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -b {16,24,32}, --bit {16,24,32}
                        The bit depth of your mastered result. 32 means 32-bit
                        float
  --log LOG             The file to which the logs will be written
  --no_limiter          Disables the limiter at the final stage of processing
