Clap on / Clap off

[trevor-clarke]

Just a simple clap on clap off feature ... would be helpful if you werent at your keyboard for whatever reason.

Hmmm i have to look into this because I have no clue how to implement this...

[Hyrules]

I have found a way to do this. I will try to implement it in the next version as a tool.

I played around with this and it's not as easy at is seems. I might not have it in the next version. I will try but no promises. Interfacing the microphone is easy. Analyzing the samples and finding the clap is another thing. I have a piece of code that does it but it's rather weak. One clap can end in 8 or 9 trigger of a clap depending on the sample. I'm not an audio expert.

Sounds good!

@Hyrules Why not just make it so you can only toggle it once every few seconds? That would solve the multiple triggering problem.

you can use this method: https://github.com/tom-s/clap-detector/blob/master/index.js
its using the silence detection of SOX, see the manual: http://sox.sourceforge.net/sox.html
silence [−l] above-periods [duration threshold[d|%] [below-periods duration threshold[d|%]] Removes silence from the beginning, middle, or end of the audio. ‘Silence’ is determined by a specified threshold.

Maybe you can use the Microsoft Speech API for this? (Just a suggestion, it might not have anything to do with it)
