About Creating Sounds on the Fly
You can create sounds from different audio segments on the fly in Django views, using pydub library.
from django.http import HttpResponse
from django.conf import settings
from pydub import AudioSegment
def create_sound(request):
original_segment = AudioSegment.from_wav(
settings.BASE_DIR / "data" / "ding.wav"
)
sound = AudioSegment.silent(duration=0)
for volume_modification in [-20, -10, 0]:
segment = original_segment + volume_modification
sound += segment
sound_data = sound.export()
return HttpResponse(sound_data, content_type="audio/mp3")
For pydub to function properly, you will also need ffmpeg utility installed in your operating system.
