//--exercise - chord tracking

//build a selfplaying arpeggiator

//see PracticalSoundAnalysis03examples.html

//--advanced topics, other low / high-level descriptors

//introduce chromagram

http://web.media.mit.edu/~tristan/phd/dissertation/chapter3.html

//--the phase vocoder

//--tracking harmonic partials

//--low-level feature extraction vs high-level descriptors

//--exercise - feedback

//use one of the previous exercises and let it analyze its own output (with a variable delay)

//or work on free choice / own project
