System, process and device configurations are provided for customized generation of gaming music. A method includes detecting at least one user interaction with a gaming system directed to generated music, and updating a parameter for music generation based on the at least one user interaction. The method also includes generating gaming music based on the parameter and a game state dynamically. Musical interactions with the gaming system may be collected during gameplay to train and retrain a dynamic music generator. Retraining may be performed for dynamic music generation interfering with output of sound effects of the electronic game. Inputs may be provided by sensors of the gaming system to detect interactions and control of dynamic music during gameplay. Inputs may include detecting presence of viewers and user environment to modify at least one output characteristic of dynamically generated music.

Apparatus and associated methods relate to comparing a musical score model to a captured performance of the musical score, calculating a degree of similarity between the musical score model and the captured performance based on the comparison, and automatically evaluating the captured performance based on the degree of similarity and musical score degree of difficulty determined as a function of the musical score entropy. In an illustrative example, a musician may be learning to play the musical score. The musical score may be modelled, for example, based on pitch, volume, and rhythm, permitting comparison to the captured performance of the musical score. In some examples, the musical score degree of difficulty may be adapted based on the captured performance evaluation. Some embodiments may generate musical scores based on the captured performance evaluation. Various examples may advantageously provide corrective instruction based on the degree of difficulty and the captured performance evaluation.

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.

An electronic-drum module for connection to one or more electronic-drum pads is provided. The module includes an electronic display; a first memory storing audio files for playback when the playback is triggered by a signal received from a pad; and one or more processors coupled to the display and the memory. The processors are configured receive an instruction to transfer a set of samples. The set of samples is associated with a priority-instruction and includes a first subset of samples and a second subset of samples. The processors are also configures to transfer the first subset of samples from a second memory to the first memory based on the priority-instruction before transferring the second subset of samples and to transfer the second subset of samples from the second memory to the first memory.

An electronic-drum module for connection to one or more 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 a pad, and one or more processors coupled to the electronic display and the memory. The processors are configured to play the audio files when the playback is triggered and display, on the display, a user interface for an application. The user interface for the application includes a list of available trigger sources. The processors are also configured to receive an instruction to select an available trigger source and display, on the display, a list of available drum kits to associate with the available trigger source. The processors are also configured to display images of the available drum kits in response to receiving an instruction to select an available drum kit.

A music practice feedback system, comprising, a processor; and a memory storing instructions that cause the processor to perform, monitoring an outcome of a playing of a sheet music by a user, and based on the outcome, suggesting a type of improvement to increase a success rate of playing the sheet music.

A music practice feedback system, includes a processor; and a memory storing instructions that cause the processor to perform, forecasting an ability to retain playing skills of a sheet music by a user via machine learning and changing a display of the sheet music based on the forecasted ability.

Disclosed herein are systems, apparatus, and/or methods for automatically generating in real-time an adaptive digital music stream that satisfies a particular scenario (either static or changing), as described by the dynamic input of an emotional vector (possibly with emotional direction/target), one or more musical styles and one or more musical themes, using an automated music composition, performance and audio production system based which utilizes machine learning and artificial intelligence techniques.

An electronic-drum module for connection to one or more 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 a pad, and one or more processors coupled to the electronic display and the memory. The processors are configured to play a portion of the audio files when the playback is triggered by the signal received from the one or more electronic-drum pads. The processors are also configured to display, on the display, a user interface for an application, which includes a waveform associated with recorded audio. The processors are also configured to display, on the display, tempo gridlines with a tempo-gridline spacing over the waveform. The module includes a control for adjusting the tempo-gridline spacing. The control is a wheel and is actuated by a rotation of the wheel.

In transposing a piece of music in accordance with the sound range of a musical instrument or the vocal range of a singer, an amount of transposition is determined in consideration of the sound range and a key signature resulting from the transposition. A transposing device according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a data acquisition unit configured to acquire a predetermined sound range, key information of a predetermined piece of music, and pitch information of sounds constituting the predetermined piece of music and a transposition amount determination unit configured to calculate a value of transposition evaluation on the basis of the sound range, the key information of the piece of music, and the pitch information and to determine an amount of transposition on the basis of the value of transposition evaluation.
