Sound Recording Analysis Software

Several different programs were downloaded and tested to see whether or not they would yield insight in the difference between the original audio files and the recordings. Audiodiff Maker, Similarity, and others were used. All but the first two were quickly proved useless. Audiodiff Maker made an audio file which was the difference between the two programs, but could not align the start of the song in the files, so that the files could not be accurately analyzed. This left Similarity, which claims to compensate for different start times for the tracks. Similarity, upon first test, yielded questionable results. However, this is our best option, so more tests will be run.
