Examples

# Load data
data(btnw)
data(oven)

# Write Wave objects to file (temporary directory used here)
btnw.fp<-file.path(tempdir(),"btnw.wav")
oven.fp<-file.path(tempdir(),"oven.wav")
writeWave(btnw, btnw.fp)
writeWave(oven, oven.fp)

# Create four correlation templates
wct1<-makeCorTemplate(btnw.fp, name="w1")
wct2<-makeCorTemplate(btnw.fp, t.lim=c(1.5, 2.1), frq.lim=c(4.2, 5.6), name="w2")
oct1<-makeCorTemplate(oven.fp, t.lim=c(1, 4), frq.lim=c(1, 11), name="o1")
oct2<-makeCorTemplate(oven.fp, t.lim=c(1, 4), frq.lim=c(1, 11), dens=0.1, name="o2")

# Combine all of them
ctemps<-combineCorTemplates(wct1, wct2, oct1, oct2)
ctemps

# To check paths
templatePath(ctemps)

# Change the first two
templatePath(ctemps)[1:2]<-c("~/templates/btnw.wav", "~/templates/btnw.wav")

# Clean up (only because these files were created in these examples)
file.remove(btnw.fp)
file.remove(oven.fp)
