Systems and methods for generating a haptic output from an audio signal having a continuous stream of sampled digital audio data are provided. A haptic processing system receives the digital audio data, analyses the digital audio data for processing and extracts haptic signals for generating a haptic effect through an actuator. The method includes passing the digital audio signal on through dynamic processor(s), adjusting the dynamic range of the digital audio signal, extracting the signal envelope of the audio data, synthesising low-frequency signals from the extracted signal envelope, and enhancing the low-frequency content using a resonator. The haptic output is generated by mixing the digital audio signal with outputs from the different modules of the haptic processing system. An analytics module monitors, controls and adjusts the processing of the digital audio signal at the noise gate module, the compressor module and the envelope module to enhance the haptic output.

A hi-hat cymbal sound generation apparatus according to the present invention includes an input part, a recording part, a trigger part and a sound volume control part. The input part acquires distance information on a distance between a top pad and a bottom pad, state information and vibration information on a vibration of the top pad. The input part acquires the state information by determining the state information based on a corrected distance, which is obtained by adding a distance correction value, which corresponds to a magnitude of the vibration indicated by the vibration information, to the distance indicated by the distance information. The recording part records data on a hit sound in each state indicated by the state information. The trigger part checks whether the vibration indicated by the vibration information falls within a predetermined range in which a sound generation procedure is to be started.

A resonance signal generating method includes generating a first resonance signal of a first pitch circulating through first loop processing by inputting a first excitation signal to the first loop processing including first delay that delays the signal by a time corresponding to the first pitch and first attenuation that attenuates the signal, the first pitch being a pitch having a resonance frequency of a predetermined speaking length of a piano, generating a second resonance signal of a second pitch circulating through second loop processing by inputting a second excitation signal to the second loop processing including second delay that delays the signal by a time corresponding to the second pitch and second attenuation that attenuates the signal, the second pitch not being a pitch having a resonance frequency of any of speaking lengths of the piano or a pitch of a harmonic thereof but being higher than the first pitch, and outputting the first resonance signal circulating through the first loop processing and the second resonance signal circulating through the second loop processing.

A resonance signal generating method includes generating a first resonance signal of a specific pitch circulating through first loop processing by inputting an excitation signal to the first loop processing including first delay that delays the signal by a time corresponding to the specific pitch and first attenuation that attenuates the signal, generating a second resonance signal of the specific pitch circulating through second loop processing by the second loop processing including second delay that delays the signal by a time corresponding to the specific pitch and second attenuation that attenuates the signal, generating an attenuation change signal by adding the first resonance signal and the second resonance signal to each other, attenuating and inverting the added first and second resonance signals, and inputting the generated attenuation change signal to the first loop processing and the second loop processing respectively, and outputting the first resonance signal.

A computer user interface (UI) is capable of generating a sound when a predetermined event occurs. The sound generated when the predetermined event occurs may possess at least some characteristics of a predominant natural language used by a user and/or a location of a computer implementing the UI. This enables the user to quickly assimilate the sound generated when the predetermined event occurs. Because the user quickly assimilates the sound generated when the predetermined event occurs, the user is able to rapidly respond to the predetermined event, at times using the computer UI, which reduces undesirable memory use, processor use and/or battery drain associated with a computing device that implements the computer UI.
