Wav -> Dsp -> Components, Using DSP to take components from a .wav Options

[tingleychris]

Hi,

I am developing an MLP Artifical Neural Network application (www.etingley.com/uni), but am now at the stage of using a DSP toolkit to remove certain traits (components) of a .wav file.

I am developing in C++ in XCode on Panther.

Can anyone suggest a decent toolkit to use that will easily allow me to give it a wav and extract numerical components?

I was always expecting the 'time domain' problem to be the main difficulty.

Do you think that FFTing my data would give me enough information to go on?

Again, as this is an academic excerise more than anything, it is not a massive problem if it doesnt actaully work! Obviuosly it would be nice for it to work, but the main focus is coming up with an interesting area to research and research it well enough to put something together. The bulk of the assesment is in writting the neural net library (and mine works really well )
