eq4 / onset_db

Onset data set which can be used to tune/evaluate onset detection algorithms.

onset_db

This data set includes onset annotations which can be used for the evaluation of onset detection algorithms. It does not include the audio files. If no download link is given below, the data must be obtained by the original author.

.onsets contain the onset annotations, one per line, given in seconds. The original branch includes the original annotations, the master branch the modified onsets.
