Calculating frequencies from .mp3 or .wav files?

Question

I'm trying to do some note recognition on mp3 or wav files.

The problem is: How do I use the FFT on the files?

I prefer Java solutions, but I'm up for suggestions.

Solution 1

Spectrum Analysis using Java, Sampling Frequency, Folding Frequency, and the FFT Algorithm http://www.developer.com/java/other/article.php/3380031

Solution 2

Some example links are:
