<p>Automatic detection of musical events in an audio signal is one of the most fundamental tasks in music information retrieval. Here, we will show how to detect an <strong>onset</strong>, the very instant that marks the beginning of the transient part of a sound, or the earliest moment at which a transient can be reliably detected.</p>
