MUSICAL INSTRUMENT TUNER, MUSICAL PERFORMANCE SUPPORT DEVICE AND MUSICAL INSTRUMENT MANAGEMENT DEVICE
The musical instrument tuner includes: a sensor device that is attached to a musical instrument; and an operation device that is able to perform wireless communication mutually with the sensor device, in which the sensor device includes an acceleration sensor that has at least two detection axes, frequency detection means for detecting, as a detected frequency, a frequency of a vibration of musical sound generated through an operation of the musical instrument based on an output from the acceleration sensor, and sensor-side communication means for transmitting transmission information including information regarding the detected frequency to the operation device, and the operation device includes operation-side communication means for receiving the transmission information transmitted from the sensor device, display means, and control means for generating tuning information of the musical instrument and causing the display means to display the tuning information based on the transmission information received from the sensor device.
METHOD FOR GENERATING ACTION ACCORDING TO AUDIO SIGNAL AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE
The disclosure provides a method for generating action according to an audio signal and an electronic device. The method includes: receiving an audio signal and extracting a high-level audio feature therefrom; extracting a latent audio feature from the high-level audio feature; in response to determining that the audio signal corresponds to a beat, obtaining a joint angle distribution matrix based on the latent audio feature; in response to determining that the audio signal corresponds to a music, obtaining a plurality of designated joint angles corresponding to a plurality of joint points based on the joint angle distribution matrix; and adjusting a joint angle of each of the joint points on the avatar according to the designated joint angles.
AUDIO-VISUAL EFFECTS SYSTEM FOR AUGMENTATION OF CAPTURED PERFORMANCE BASED ON CONTENT THEREOF
Visual effects schedules are applied to audiovisual performances with differing visual effects applied in correspondence with differing elements of musical structure. Segmentation techniques applied to one or more audio tracks (e.g., vocal or backing tracks) are used to compute some of the components of the musical structure. In some cases, applied visual effects schedules are mood-denominated and may be selected by a performer as a component of his or her visual expression or determined from an audiovisual performance using machine learning techniques.
Automated generation of coordinated audiovisual work based on content captured from geographically distributed performers
Vocal audio of a user together with performance synchronized video is captured and coordinated with audiovisual contributions of other users to form composite duet-style or glee club-style or window-paned music video-style audiovisual performances. In some cases, the vocal performances of individual users are captured (together with performance synchronized video) on mobile devices, television-type display and/or set-top box equipment in the context of karaoke-style presentations of lyrics in correspondence with audible renderings of a backing track. Contributions of multiple vocalists are coordinated and mixed in a manner that selects for presentation, at any given time along a given performance timeline, performance synchronized video of one or more of the contributors. Selections are in accord with a visual progression that codes a sequence of visual layouts in correspondence with other coded aspects of a performance score such as pitch tracks, backing audio, lyrics, sections and/or vocal parts.
PRESSURE MEASUREMENT DEVICE FOR USE WITH A MUSICAL INSTRUMENT
A pressure measurement device for use with a musical instrument is provided. The pressure measurement devices has at least one inlet to receive air from a player of the musical instrument as the player plays the musical instrument. The pressure measurement device also has at least one sensor associated with the at least one inlet. The sensor is configured to sense information relating to pressure from the received air in real time as the musical instrument is played.
Electronic device and music visualization method thereof
An electronic device and a method for controlling the electronic device, the method including receiving an input of a command to reproduce music contents, determining audio characteristics information on the music contents and situation information on an environment where the music contents are being reproduced; and displaying a visualization effect of visualizing the music contents using the audio characteristics information and the situation information, and reproducing the music contents.
APPARATUS, SYSTEM, AND METHOD FOR RECORDING AND RENDERING MULTIMEDIA
A system may comprise a looper. The looper may further comprise an arrangement module. The arrangement module may arrange audio data into at least one of the following: a song comprised of at least one song part, at least one track within the at least one song part, and at least one layer within the at least one track. The system may also comprise an output module, the output module may be configured to enable playback of the arranged audio data. The system may also comprise an input module that may be configured to record subsequent audio data during the playback of the arranged audio data from the output module. The system may also comprise a processing module configured to modify playback of the arranged audio data. The system may also comprise an external device configured to control operation of at least one module associated with the looper.
GENERATION DEVICE
The present disclosure provides a generation device having a plurality of operators that receive a user operation that causes generation of a sound. The generation device includes: at least one first operator arranged in a first region and configured to receive a first user operation that causes generation of a rhythm sound signal; at least one second operator arranged in a second region and configured to receive a second user operation that causes generation of a melody sound signal; and at least one third operator arranged in a third region and configured to receive a third user operation that causes a sound effect to be applied to a synthesized sound signal of the generated rhythm sound signal and the generated melody sound signal. The first region, the second region, and the third region are different regions of the generation device from each other.
System and method for generating harmonious color sets from musical interval data
Systems and methods are disclosed for generating color sets based on musical concepts of pitch intervals and harmony. Color sets are derived via a music-to-hue process which analyzes musical pitch data associated with musical input to determine pitch intervals included in the music. Pitch interval angles associated with the pitch intervals are applied to a tuned hue index to identify hue note ordered within the index which are separated by a hue interval angle similar to the pitch angle associated with the analyzed pitch data. The systems and methods provide for the creation of color sets which are analogous to musical chords in that they include multiple hue notes selected based on hue interval angles derived from musical interval angles associated with the received musical input.
Wireless multi-string tuner for stringed instruments and associated method of use
A stringed instrument tuner that senses the vibration of all the strings of the instrument independently and simultaneously via ultraviolet reflective light sensors that are immune to interference from ambient alternating-current lighting. The pitches of the strings are then measured continuously in real-time and transmitted wirelessly to a receiver that simultaneously graphically displays how far out-of-tune all of the strings are so that the musician can instantly see which strings need tuning and tune them quickly. The receiver may be a smartphone, smartwatch, smart glasses, computer, self-tuning system, or a dedicated wearable receiver-display unit.
