A guitar pedalboard for creating a loop includes a touch screen display for displaying a plurality of tracks of a loop. The touch screen display can be used to adjust a parameter of each track, and the loop. A plurality of footswitches corresponding to the plurality of tracks can be used to independently record and play each track of the loop.

A method for processing music audio data, including providing input audio data representing a first piece of music comprising a mixture of musical timbres. The method also includes decomposing the input audio data to generate at least first-timbre decomposed data representing a first timbre selected from the musical timbres of the first piece of music, and second-timbre decomposed data representing a second timbre selected from the musical timbres of the first piece of music. The method also includes applying a transport control to obtain transport controlled first-timbre decomposed data. The method also includes recombining audio data obtained from the transport controlled first-timbre decomposed data with audio data obtained from the second-timbre decomposed data to obtain recombined audio data.

A method of post-processing an audio recording in an audio production equipment (101) includes receiving at least one audio track (91) of the audio recording, analyzing one or more characteristics (80) of the at least one audio track (91) to identify a timing of one or more points of interest (251-254) of a content (201-203, 269) of the at least one audio track (91), and adding, to the audio recording and at the timing of the one or more points of interest (251-254), one or more audience reaction effects (261-264).

A device for processing audio signals, including: first and second input units providing first and second input signals of first and second audio tracks, a decomposition unit to decompose the first input audio signal to obtain a plurality of decomposed signals, a playback unit configured to start playback of a first output signal obtained from recombining at least a first decomposed signal at a first volume level with a second decomposed signal at a second volume level, such that the first output signal substantially equals the first input signal, and a transition unit for performing a transition between playback of the first output signal and playback of a second output signal obtained from the second input signal. The transition unit has a volume control section adapted for reducing the first and second volume levels according to first and second transition functions.

A touch sensitive audio-visual input/output device comprising an internal core comprising a controller, the controller associated with at least one processor and at least one memory store, at least one light emitter associated with the controller, at least one audio output component associated with the controller, at least one actuator provided relative to the housing and associated with the controller and configured to transmit touch inputs to the controller to control operation of the device, and a flexible, translucent outer casing for at least partially enclosing the internal core.

A social entertainment user interface operating on a wireless networked record session device capable of producing a live video and/or audio stream as if made in a vintage record booth. Record sessions are listened to and/or watched by a plurality of other social entertainment user interfaces operating on other networked listening/watching wireless networked devices. Video and audio filters emulate various altered looks and sounds. Record sessions are streamed live or near-live for other social entertainment user interfaces operating on other networked wireless devices to listen and/or watch, and passively and actively rated to dynamically enable watching of the most preferred record sessions.

Provided are a method and device for processing a music file, a terminal and a storage medium. The method comprises: in response to a received sound effect adjustment instruction, acquiring a music file, the adjustment of which is indicated by the sound effect adjustment instruction; carrying out vocals and accompaniment separation on the music file to obtain vocal data and accompaniment data in the music file; carrying out first sound effect processing on the vocal data to obtain target vocal data, and carrying out second sound effect processing on the accompaniment data to obtain target accompaniment data; and synthesizing the target vocal data and the target accompaniment data to obtain a target music file.

The present invention relates to a method for processing and playing audio data comprising the steps of receiving mixed input data and playing recombined output data. Furthermore, the invention relates to a device for processing and playing audio data, preferably DJ equipment, comprising an audio input unit for receiving a mixed input signal, a recombination unit and a playing unit for playing recombined output data. In addition, the present invention relates to a method and a device for representing audio data, i.e. on a display.

Techniques are disclosed relating to determining composition rules, based on existing music content, to automatically generate new music content. In some embodiments, a computer system accesses a set of music content and generates a set of composition rules based on analyzing combinations of multiple loops in the set of music content. In some embodiments, the system generates new music content by selecting loops from a set of loops and combining selected ones of the loops such that multiple ones of the loops overlap in time. In some embodiments, the selecting and combining loops is performed based on the set of composition rules and attributes of loops in the set of loops.
