Getting Started

Python setup

You will need the RedVox SDK to run this example. The SDK can be installed by running:

pip install redvox==3.2.0

in a terminal with Python enabled.

You will also need the RedPandas library which can be installed with:

pip install redpandas==1.3.5

For more instructions on installing these libraries, please visit RedVox SDK Installation and RedPandas Installation.

You can confirm everything is installed correctly by running this Python script:

import redvox
import redpandas

if __name__ == "__main__":
    print("Redvox version: ", redvox.version())
    print("RedPandas version: ", redpandas.version())

If there are no errors, you will see the version numbers printed to the screen.

Obtaining Data

We will be using a dataset recorded during a SpaceX launch to showcase the examples. The data is located in the RedVox report: https://redvox.io/#/reports/E328

In Additional Products, click the Time aligned and corrected data window link.

A file named dw_1648830257000498_2.pkl.lz4 will start to download.

NOTE: All the examples in the following section (FROM A REDVOX REPORT, HOW TO…) use this dataset.

We are done setting up! Now we can start loading the audio data in the next section.
