I tried Praat but I understand Praat is'nt good with resonating instruments and multivoices. What else can I use? Sound Analysis Pro (Matlab version) compares at maximum 5 seconds without freezing. What else could I try? thank you!
Hello Emese,
I don't quite understand what you are looking for. What acoustic parameters are you talking about? Do you want to analyze music pieces containing several different instruments? Do you want to get independent acoustic parameters for each instrument?
Please, could you provide more details as to your aim.

I assume that you are interested in non-real-time analysis.
I used to use Audition to extract various features (it does has more than just spectral waterfall/sonogram), but it doesn't have much. However, Audacity (which is an audacious copy of Audition) allows VAMP plugins, and there exist plugins for melody and beat tracking, cepstruj, etc. And you can write your own.
Today I use MATLAB without toolboxes (other than the basic DSP one) and look around or implement what I need. I know there are toolboxes for audio, the Audio one has "pitch" and "FeatureExtractor", and I heard that there is a deep learning for Audio one as well (but I haven't tried them).
Have you looked at Yaafe or openSMILE ?
And there are jAudio, MIRtoolbox, Psysound, Marsyas, M2K, IPEM, ...
Each has its own list of features.

I use Audiosculpt from IRCAM. https://forum.ircam.fr/projects/detail/audiosculpt/
It produces a spectrogram for audio - with control of the analysis parameters. For data output, you can choose how many partials you want to consider for each sound. It also has tools for fundamental estimation etc.
NB For analysing the numerical data, you need to use an extra small program and then view with a spreadsheet etc.
