A method of determining relations between music items, the method comprising determining a first input representation for a symbolic representation of a first music item, mapping the first input representation onto to one or more subspaces derived from a vector space using a first model, wherein each subspace models a characteristic of the music items, determining a second input representation for music data representing a second music item, mapping the second input representation onto the one or more subspaces using a second model, determining a distance between the mappings of the first and second input representation in each subspace, wherein the distance represents the degree of relation between the first and second input representation with respect to the characteristic modelled by the subspace.

A system and method for assembling segments of recorded music or video from among various versions or variations of a recording, into a new version or composition, such that a first segment of a first version of a recorded work is attached to a segment of a second segment of a second version of the recorded work, to create a new version of the recorded work.

This electronic musical instrument main body device comprises an information acquisition unit and a port assignment unit. The information acquisition unit acquires, from a playing operation device connected to one connection terminal, information related to the playing operation device. The port assignment unit assigns, to the playing operation device, a virtual input port of a type corresponding to the information related to the playing operation device and acquired by the information acquisition unit.

A computer-implemented sound signal synthesis method generates control data including pitch notation data indicative of a pitch name of a pitch of a sound signal to be synthesized and octave data indicative of an octave of the pitch of the sound signal to be synthesized; and estimates output data indicative of the sound signal to be synthesized by inputting the generated control data into a generative model that has learned a relationship between training control data including training pitch notation data indicative of a pitch name of a pitch of a reference signal and training octave data indicative of an octave of the pitch of the reference signal; and training output data indicative of the reference signal.

A method generates first pitch data indicating a pitch of a first sound signal to be synthesized; and uses a generative model to estimate output data indicative of the first sound signal based on the generated first pitch data. The generative model has been trained to learn a relationship between second pitch data indicating a pitch of a second sound signal and the second sound signal. The first pitch data includes a first plurality of pieces of pitch notation data corresponding to pitch names, and is generated by setting, from among the first plurality of pieces of pitch notation data, a first piece of pitch notation data that corresponds to the pitch of the first sound signal as a hot value based on a difference between a reference pitch of a pitch name corresponding to the first piece of pitch notation data and the pitch of the first sound signal.

A manual music generator designed to help musicians express and capture their musical inspiration while on the go. The quick two step music composition process empowers all levels of musicians to accurately record their musical inspiration before the idea exits their imagination. The apparatus breaks down the musical expression process into two steps by separating pitch and rhythm, enabling musicians to easily express and record the musical riffs in their head.

The described technology is generally directed towards providing a visible waveform representation of an audio signal, by processing the audio signal with a polynomial (e.g., cubic) mapping function. Coefficients of the polynomial mapping function are predetermined based on constraints (e.g., slope information and desired range of the resultant curve), and whether the plotted audio waveform corresponds to sound field quantities or power quantities. Once the visible representation of the reshaped audio waveform is displayed, audio and/or video editing operations can be performed, e.g., by time-aligning other audio or video with the reshaped audio waveform, and/or modifying the reshaped audio waveform to change the underlying audio data.

A sound signal synthesis method includes inputting control data representing conditions of a sound signal into a neural network, and thereby estimating first data representing a deterministic component of the sound signal and second data representing a stochastic component of the sound signal, and combining the deterministic component represented by the first data and the stochastic component represented by the second data, and thereby generating the sound signal. The neural network has learned a relationship between control data that represents conditions of a sound signal of a reference signal, a deterministic component of the sound signal of the reference signal, and a stochastic component of the sound signal of the reference signal.

Techniques are disclosed relating to generating music content. In one embodiment, a method includes determining one or more musical attributes based on external data and generating music content based on the one or more musical attributes. Generating the music content may include selecting from stored sound loops or tracks and/or generating new tracks based on the musical attributes. Selected or generated sound loops or tracks may be layered to generate the music content. Musical attributes may be determined in some embodiments based on user input (e.g., indicating a desired energy level), environment information, and/or user behavior information. Artists may upload tracks, in some embodiments, and be compensated based on usage of their tracks in generating music content. In some embodiments, a method includes generating sound and/or light control information based on the musical attributes.
