I am reading a raw wave stream coming from the microphone.
(This part works as I can send it to the speaker and get a nice echo.)

For simplicity lets say I want to detect a DTMF-tone in the wave data. In reality I want to detect any frequency, not just those in DTMF. But I always know which frequency I am looking for.

I have tried running it through FFT, but it doesn’t seem very efficient if I want high accuracy in the detection (say it is there for only 20 ms). I can detect it down to an accuracy of around 200 ms.

What are my options with regards to algorithms?
Are there any .Net libs for it?

    You may want to look at the Goertzel algorithm if you’re trying to detect specific frequencies such as DTMF input. There is a C# DTMF generator/detector library on Sourceforge based on this algorithm.
