        {\bf Abstract:}
	This thesis presents Ringermute, an application designed to
	support audio feature recognition and machine learning, from
	the training and testing to the deployment phase. By choosing
	from a combination of feature extraction routines provided by
	plug-ins, a researcher can quickly produce files for input to
	standard data mining tools. The best combination of
	feature-extraction and classifier plugins can then be used to
	drive a near-real-time application for further testing or
	production use.
