A content control device includes: a plurality of controls to which a plurality of parameters for controlling properties of a content containing at least one of sound and video are respectively assigned, each of the plurality of controls outputting a first indicated value in accordance with an operation amount of the control; and a processor configured to previously create setting information used to determine respective values of the plurality of parameters in accordance with the second indicated value; determine the values of the plurality of parameters corresponding to the second indicated value respectively in accordance with the second indicated value and the setting information; and revise each of the values of the parameters to be determined in accordance with the first indicated value outputted for the control assigned to the parameter.

Musical compositions and/or other audio programs are automatically identified, generated, curated, and/or personalized, so as to treat, mitigate, and/or address specific symptoms, such as those related to mental health disorders. Based on a user's particular issues relating to poor sleep, stress, anxiety, and/or other conditions, particular audio programs are automatically output so as to alleviate and/or address such issues. The system uses metadata to automatically identify, generate, curate, and/or personalize musical compositions and/or other audio programs, and to match such programs with particular conditions and issues, so as to maximize effectiveness in addressing such issues in users. In at least one embodiment, the system may automatically determine, based on survey responses indicating the severity of the user's symptoms, a dosage for audio programs to be output for the user, and may set a time to automate the amount of time the user listens to the audio programs.

A dynamic audio signal processing system for dynamically and continuously applying effects to an audio signal in real-time based on detected audio signal attributes. The dynamic audio signal processing system generally includes a signal processor including an input for receiving an audio signal, such as from an instrument. The signal processor may include an input analyzer adapted to detect one or more attributes of the audio signal continuously and in real-time. The signal processor may also include one or more signal conditioners in parallel with the input analyzer; each of the signal conditioners being adapted to dynamically apply one or more effects to the audio signal based on the one or more attributes detected by the input analyzer. The signal processor may include a selector for selecting which, if any, of the signal conditioners to apply effects to the audio signal based on detected attributes.

When an instruction is provided for changing a characteristic of a set filter which includes a plurality of partial filters and forms a specified characteristic by combining a plurality of partial filters, a processor performs, as crossfading processing for a first filter and a second filter among the plurality of partial filters, fade-out processing of gradually decreasing a degree of contribution of the first filter to the characteristic and fade-in processing of gradually increasing a degree of contribution of the second filter to the characteristic. As a result, unnaturalness occurring at the time of changing filter characteristics is solved.

A method in accord with certain implementations involves, at an audio input, receiving a time domain audio signals; at one or more digital signal processors: converting the time domain audio signal to a frequency domain representation containing at least a fundamental frequency component, modifying the frequency domain representation to produce a modified frequency spectrum, converting the modified frequency spectrum to a modified time domain audio signal; and outputting the modified input signals as an output signal. This abstract is not to be considered limiting, since other embodiments may deviate from the features described in this abstract.

Provided is an apparatus installed in a cellular phone (700) to control a guitar effector loop. The apparatus includes a patch screen display unit for displaying a patch, which is constituted by combinations of the plurality of foot switches (600) and the compactors (500) set to the respective foot switches (600), on a patch screen (710) of the cellular phone (700), a bank screen display unit for display a bank constituted by the plurality of patches on a bank screen (720) of the cellular phone (700), and a control unit performing a control so that the patch screen (710) corresponding to a selected patch is displayed by the patch screen display unit when one patch is selected from the plurality of patches displayed on the back screen (720).

An application for operating on a smart phone that records a musician's performance, either voice or instrumental, in combination with pre-recorded music. The combination allows for the auto tuning of the recording, the compression of the recording, the equalization of the recording, adding in reverb, and the audio quantization of the rhythm. Once combined, the song is transmitted to social media and/or to an online store for sale. The user can also make a video with the song. Additional marketing such as song competitions or music reviews and ratings are also provided.

System, process and device configurations are provided for customized audio spectrum generation of gaming music. A method includes detecting at least one audio spectrum input for gaming music and updating a parameter for dynamic music generation based on the at least one audio spectrum input. The method also includes generating gaming music for the gaming system dynamically to include at least one musical motif determined based on the parameter, and output of gaming music. Frequency or tonalities of dynamic generated music that interfere with gameplay sound effects may be adjusted to improve gameplay. In some cases volume of sound elements may be shifted in volume or pitch to indicate presence of gaming elements or opportunities during gameplay. Similarly, frequency ranges may be customized to avoid one or more frequencies, such as a frequency range identified as being associated with hearing loss or with causing a disturbance, such as vibration.

A system for digital control of an analog pedal has an analog audio circuit. The analog audio circuit receives an analog audio signal as an input audio signal and processes the input audio signal into an output analog audio signal. A digital control system is operatively coupled to the analog audio circuit. The digital control system receives a user input and outputs a control signal to the analog audio circuit as a function of the user input. The analog audio circuit modifies the audio signal into the output analog audio signal as a function of the control signal.
