A system of playing media content items determines transitions between pairs of media content items by determining desirable locations in which transitions across the pairs of media content items occur. The system uses a plurality of track features of media content items and determines such track features of each media content item associated with each of transition point candidates, such as beat positions, of that media content item. The system determines similarity in the plurality of track features between the transition point candidates of a first media content item and the transition point candidates for a second media content item being played subsequent to the first media content item. The transition points or portions of the first and second media content items are selected from the transition point candidates for the first and second media content items based on the similarity results.

Methods of creating and recreating a mix instructions file for mixing two or more music tracks are disclosed including the comparison of the music tracks used in creation and recreation, respectively. If possible and necessary, the recreation music tracks may be adjusted to correspond better to the creation music tracks.

A music production system comprises: a computer interface comprising at least one input for receiving an external request for a piece of music and at least one output for transmitting a response to the external request which comprises or indicates a piece of music incorporating first music data; a first music production component configured to process second music data according to at least a first input setting so as to generate the first music data; a second music production component configured to receive via the computer interface an internal request, and provide the second music data based on at least a second input setting denoted by the internal request; and a controller configured to determine in response to the external request the first and second input settings, and instigate the internal request via the computer interface.

In some embodiments, an electronic device displays time-synced lyrics of content items playing on an electronic device. In some embodiments, an electronic device displays representations of content items in a playback sequence on an electronic device. In some embodiments, an electronic device shares an item of content with another user account of another electronic device.

A music composition system for composing music segments comprises: a computer interface comprising at least one external input for receiving from an external device a request for a musical composition; a controller configured to determine based on a request received at the external input a plurality of musical parts for the musical composition; and a composition engine configured to generate, for each of the determined musical parts, at least one musical segment in digital musical notation format, the musical segments configured to cooperate musically when performed simultaneously. The computer interface comprises at least one external output configured to output a response to the request, the request comprising or indicating each of the musical segments in digital musical notation format for rendering into audio data at the external device.

In some implementations, a computing device can generate personalized music selections to associate with any collections of visual media (e.g., photos and videos) stored on the computing device. A user may prefer particular genres of music and listen to some genres more frequently than others. The computing device can create measures of the user's genre preferences and use these measures to select music that is preferred by the user and music that may be significant or relevant to the particular collection of visual media. The computing device may also determine music that was being played when and where the visual media were being created. The computing device may store the visual media and music items in association with each other. The computing device may generate composite media items that combine the visual media and music items. When the visual media are viewed, the selected music item is also played.

An automated music composition and generation system and process for producing one or more pieces of digital music, by providing a set of musical energy (ME) quality control parameters to an automated music composition and generation engine, applying certain of the selected musical energy quality control parameters as markers to specific spots along the timeline of a selected media object or event marker by the system user during a scoring process, and providing the selected set of musical energy quality control parameters to drive the automated music composition and generation engine to automatically compose and generate one or more pieces of digital music with control over the specified qualities of musical energy embodied in and expressed by the piece of digital music to composed and generated by the automated music composition and generation engine.

This application relates to an audio synthesis method, a storage medium, and a computer device. The method includes: obtaining a target text; determining a target song according to a selection instruction; synthesizing a self-made song using the target text and tune information of the target song according to a tune control model, the target text being used as the lyrics of the self-made song. The solutions provided in this application improve an audio playback effect.

A first device includes one or more processors and memory storing one or more programs configured to be executed by the one or more processors. The one or more programs include instructions for receiving, from a second device, audio mix information for a first audio item and receiving, from the second device, an indication that the first audio item is to be mixed with a second audio item distinct from the first audio item. In response to the indication, the one or more programs include instructions for transmitting to the second device an audio stream including the first audio item and the second audio item mixed in accordance with the audio mix information.

Systems and methods are provided for using a common vocabulary, predefined or dynamically generated based on user-provided content, to transform biometric and/or neurometric data collected from one or more people into a coherent audio and/or visual result. One method comprises receiving a first incoming signal from a bio-generated data sensing device worn by a first user; determining a first set of output values based on the first incoming signal, a common vocabulary comprising a list of possible output values, and a parameter file comprising a set of instructions for applying the common vocabulary to the first incoming signal to derive the first set of output values; generating a first output array comprising the first set of output values; and providing the first output array to an output delivery system configured to render the first output array as a first audio and/or visual output.
