BASS Audio Recognition Library

BASS Audio Recognition Library is a component designed specifically for those application developers looking to integrate audio recognition capabilities within their programs.

One thing that application builders need to keep in mind, however, is the fact that this library does not include speech recognition capabilities. It has been designed with support for comparing files with a % similarity.

BASS Audio Recognition Library can find a desired audio file in a second audio file even if the two files feature different bitrate and resolution and even if one of them has stereo sound and the other one has mono audio. However, it does require that the two files have the same loudness.

The library includes support for two modes of loading and searching, namely 1D and 2D. As long as the loaded sound objects have the same format, the BASS_AudioRecognition_Compare() function automatically detects which of the two modes should be used.

Note: There are three different licensing models available for this component. All developers who want to create free applications that can deliver the aforementioned capabilities need to pay a small fee, but those looking to design shareware or commercial applications need to buy a license to use the library.
