An information processing method includes generating a change parameter relating to a process in which a temporal relationship between a first motion and a second motion changes, by inputting, into a trained model, first time-series data that represent a content of the first motion, and second time-series data that represent a content of the second motion in parallel to the first motion.

This disclosure discloses various computing technologies that enable a user to insert a personal vocal content into an original song in a quick and simple manner, thereby potentially creating a derivative work of the original song. Additionally, these technologies enable a right holder of the original song to monitor the new derivative work in a granular, reliable, de-centralized, and secure manner.

In an electronic musical instrument that can output stored lyrics of a song in accordance with operations by a user, a processor determines whether a pedal is on or off, and if the pedal is off, the lyric is advanced in accordance with a user operation of a keyboard, and if the pedal is on, the lyric is not advanced in accordance with a user operation of a keyboard.

The present invention discloses an integrated karaoke device, including a microphone and a sound box. The sound box includes a sound chamber containing a loudspeaker. The integrated karaoke device further includes a connecting part made of flexible material that is fixedly connected between a bottom of the microphone and a top of the sound chamber. The use of a flexible material connecting part rather than a solid structural part reduces the transmission to the microphone of sound vibration generated by the sound box. The beneficial effect of implementing the present invention is that a flexible material connecting part is fixedly connected between the bottom of the microphone and the top of the sound chamber, and meanwhile, a gap is kept between the bottom of a printed circuit board (PCB) and the top of the sound chamber; and because the flexible material connecting part can effectively reduce sound vibration, the transmission of vibration to the microphone from the sound box can be effectively eliminated, thereby preventing squealing, and enabling integration of the microphone and the sound box for use in karaoke.

The present disclosure provides method and apparatus for providing personalized songs in automated chatting. A message may be received in a chat flow. Personalized lyrics of a user may be generated based at least on a personal language model of the user in response to the message. A personalized song may be generated based on the personalized lyrics. The personalized song may be provided in the chat flow.

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.

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 system, method and computer product for training a neural network system. The method comprises inputting an audio signal to the system to generate plural outputs f(X, ). The audio signal includes one or more of vocal content and/or musical instrument content, and each output f(X, ) corresponds to a respective one of the different content types. The method also comprises comparing individual outputs f(X, ) of the neural network system to corresponding target signals. For each compared output f(X, ), at least one parameter of the system is adjusted to reduce a result of the comparing performed for the output f(X, ), to train the system to estimate the different content types. In one example embodiment, the system comprises a U-Net architecture. After training, the system can estimate various different types of vocal and/or instrument components of an audio signal, depending on which type of component(s) the system is trained to estimate.

The present invention relates to a loop switcher, controllers therefor, and methods for controlling an array of audio effect devices. A controller for controlling a loop switcher with an input, an output, and a plurality of re-orderable loops, comprising a plurality of switches, each of the plurality of switches controls a corresponding one of the plurality of re-orderable loops for coupling the corresponding one of the plurality of re-orderable loops between the input and the output in a sequence; and a plurality of display elements, wherein each of the plurality of switches has a corresponding one of the plurality of display elements, where each display element indicates visually the sequence order of the sequence in which the plurality of re-orderable loops are coupled between the input and the output.
