A device is provided for capturing vibrations produced by an object such as a musical instrument such as a cymbal of a drum kit. The device comprises a detectable element, such as a ferromagnetic element, such as a metal shim and a sensor spaced apart from and located relative to the musical instrument. The detectable element is located between the sensor and the musical instrument. When the musical instrument vibrates, the sensor remains stationary and the detectable element is vibrated relative to the sensor by the musical instrument.

A method implemented by a processor includes receiving performance data including pitch data; determining, based on the pitch data that is included in the received performance data, a key among a plurality of keys; selecting, based on the determined key and the pitch data, a first-type image from among a plurality of first-type images; and displaying the selected first-type image.

The present application provides techniques for displaying music score segments in target music videos. The techniques comprise determining a digital music score corresponding to a piece of music comprised in a target music video; determining a segment of the digital music score corresponding to a current playing progress of the target music video based at least in part on a playing progress of the target music video; generating an image of a music score segment corresponding to the segment of the digital music score based on a predetermined condition; and presenting the image on a corresponding interface of playing the target music video.

A sound generation method that is realized by a computer includes receiving a representative value of a musical feature amount for each of a plurality of sections of a musical note, and using a trained model to process a first feature amount sequence in accordance with the representative value for each section, thereby generating a sound data sequence corresponding to a second feature amount sequence in which the musical feature amount changes continuously.

Disclosed herein are media, systems, and methods of creating and publishing a first play station, wherein a media creator is allowed to select a plurality of audio media and sequence the selected audio media to create an ordered combination and request a first play station. Each audio media in the ordered combination is validated to create a first play station, and the media creator is allowed to play the first play station. After the first paly station is published, a call from a third party player application prompts the published first play station, At least one alteration to the ordered combination of validated audio media can be generated, wherein the at least one alteration is selected from the group consisting of: an alternate validated audio media, an alternate sequence of the ordered combination of validated audio media, or a combination thereof.

To generate a melody, one or more machine-readable constraints are accepted from a user through a user interface. The constraints include rhythm constraints and pitch constraints. A sequence of musical elements is generated based on the constraints, each of the musical elements specifying, in machine-readable data, a musical pitch or silence and a duration of the musical pitch or silence. The pitch constraints prescribe pitches in the sequence of musical elements and the rhythm constraints prescribe rhythm of the sequence of musical elements. The sequence of musical elements is rendered in human-perceivable form as a melody.

An electronic drum-module for connection to electronic-drum pads is provided. The module includes an electronic display, a memory storing audio files for playback when the playback is triggered by a signal received from the pads, and one or more processors coupled to the electronic display and the memory. The processors are configured to play a portion of the one or more audio files when the playback is triggered by the signal received from the pads and to display, on the electronic display, a user interface for an application. The user interface includes a waveform associated with recorded audio. The user interface includes a sample-start marker and a sample-end marker. A portion of the waveform between the sample-start marker and sample-end marker is displayed brighter than a portion not between the sample-start marker and the sample-end marker. Playback of the portion may be initiated by striking a drum-pad zone.

The present invention relates to systems and methods for visual image audio composition. In particular, the present invention provides systems and methods for audio composition from a diversity of visual images and user determined sound database sources.

A setting device includes an operating element and a light-emitting device. The operating element is used for specifying a setting value of a first parameter by moving the operating element within a first region. The light-emitting device includes a second region that is disposed inside the first region. The second region includes a light-emitting area that changes according to the setting value. The operating element covers part of the second region. The operating element is an operating element for specifying a setting value of a first parameter related to sound by moving the operating element relative to a housing. The operating element includes a first portion and a second portion. The first portion blocks light. The second portion transmits light from a first surface of the operating element to a second surface facing the first surface.
