package useful for your scientific work, please consider citing our paper \nhttps://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/9311226\n```\n@article{cramer_heidelberg_2020,\n\ttitle = {The {Heidelberg} {Spiking}

[SoundFile](https://pysoundfile.readthedocs.io/en/latest/) package for parsing audio data.\nOn Linux, this library requires you to install `libsndfile` via your distribution's package manager, e.g. via `apt install libsndfile1`.\n\nWe recommend setting up a [virtualenv](https://github.com/pypa/virtualenv) (you'll need `apt install python3-venv` or similar) for your *lauscher* project:\n```shell\ngit clone https://github.com/electronicvisions/lauscher.git\ncd lauscher\npython3 -m venv venv\nsource venv/bin/activate\npip install -r requirements.txt\n```\n\n## Usage\nAssuming you are working in a private copy of *lauscher* that has been installed as noted above, you can continue by calculating a first spiketrain from one of the included examples:\n```shell\npython -m lauscher test/resources/spoken_digit.flac my_first_spiketrain.npz --num_channels 70 --verbose\n```\nNote that due to the complexity of the implemented model, even short audio files might take multiple minutes to convert.\nMemory consumption might be huge for long audio files.\n\n## License\n```\nLAUSCHER - Flexbile Auditory Spike Conversion Chain\nCopyright (C) 2020 Benjamin Cramer\n
