Yes, you can cross-compile using mingw from linux. https://github.com/MTG/essentia/blob/master/FAQ.md#cross-compiling-for-windows-on-linux You can also do it from Windows itself, using mingw_port branch, few commits back. The https://github.com/MTG/essentia/commit/da80e8bdb7b90048b3dac2ebe338d5b25016cab9 replaced native compilation for windows...

Then just cross-compile from linux. Do you what to use extractors only? streaming_extractor_music build for windows is available [here](http://acousticbrainz.org/download)

You can compile with MinGW on windows, modifying a build script a bit (and looking how it was done in mingw branch before), and we will bring back support for...

The ".a" is a normal output. It seems that unfortunately MinGw builds are only compatible with MSVC only in the case of C, not C++. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2096519/from-mingw-static-library-a-to-visual-studio-static-library-lib http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2529770/how-to-use-libraries-compiled-with-mingw-in-msvc Is there a...

Sure, but it will be more difficult. It is possible to run Essentia's waf build scripts from VS. Although I did not try it myself, I've heard some people successfully...

This is a way to make noise adder inside FrameCutter deterministic: https://github.com/MTG/essentia/issues/1192#issuecomment-949062652.

Hi @Ivorforce, thank you for the PR, this is something that is definitely interesting to support in Essentia. So as I understand you did not use waf to build? It...

We'll keep this PR pending as we'll need to look at updating the waf build script accordingly.

Can you give a basic example in Python to reproduce?

What happens in this code example is that the output of `rms_algo` is Python's `float` which is double-precision (float64), while expected input to all Essentia algorithms is single-precision (float32). Therefore,...
