Embodiments of the invention include the integration of inertial measurement units (IMUs), which may include a combination of accelerometers, gyroscopes and magnetometers to capture complex user gestures involving motion, direction and spin of the sensorized sphere in three dimensional space.
Audio Parameter Adjustment Apparatus, Audio Parameter Adjustment Method and Non-Transitory Computer Readable Medium Storing Audio Parameter Adjustment Program
A reference part determiner determines a reference part from a plurality of parts including at least three parts. A subject part group determiner determines a subject part group from the plurality of parts, excluding the reference part determined by the reference part determiner out of the plurality of parts as a subject part group. An acquirer acquires a change pattern of a first audio parameter value set for the reference part. A changer changes a second audio parameter value set for the subject part group determined by the subject part group determiner according to a change pattern acquired by the acquirer.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR AUTOMATIC MIXING OF MEDIA
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.
Cloud-based media synchronization system for generating a synchronization interface and performing media synchronization
A computer implemented media synchronization platform has a receiver that receives, from a user-operated computing device located at a live performance, a device media file. Furthermore, the computer implemented media synchronization platform receives, from a soundboard positioned at the live event, a soundboard audio file. The computer implemented media synchronization platform synchronizes, and receives, from the user-operated computing device via a synchronization interface, a realignment of a soundboard audio track. The device media file has a device video track and the device audio track. The soundboard audio file has the soundboard audio track. The computer implemented platform media synchronization platform has a processor that synchronizes the soundboard audio track with the video track, generates dual audio track A/V data based on the synchronization, generates the synchronization interface, and generates a single audio track A/V file based on the realignment. The processor is remotely positioned from the live performance.
APPARATUS, METHOD, AND COMPUTER-READABLE MEDIUM FOR GENERATING MUSICAL PIECES
An apparatus, method, and computer-readable storage medium that generate a harmonized musical piece. The method includes receiving a chord selection including a musical key and a scale selection, generating, within a digital audio work session, a chord progression sequence based on the received chord selection, in response to a detected chord selection change, modifying the chord progression sequence to include a chord progression corresponding to the chord selection change, setting the chord progression sequence as a master sequence, in response to detecting a second progression sequence within the digital audio work session, transmitting an identifier to the second progression sequence setting it as a slave sequence, and establishing a synchronized communication link between the master and the slave sequences such that changes made in the master sequence are automatically effectuated in the slave sequence, and combining the master sequence and the slave sequence to form a composed musical piece.
Sensorized spherical input and output device, systems, and methods
Described herein are embodiments of electronic sensorized spherical input and output devices, systems, and methods for capturing gestural input from a user's physical interactions with a spherical device. In one embodiment, the spherical input and output device includes a number of sensors along the surface area of the sphere in a configuration conforming to a user's fingers and hands. A microprocessor receives sensor input and transmits the sensor signals to receiving devices which include computer software to translate the sensor signals to audio output, visual output, or various functions on receiving devices. Additional embodiments of the invention include binary modifier functions which allow the user to trigger a number of different outputs for the sensorized sphere, such as volume control, tempo, sample playback, LED lights, game modes, and other functions. Other embodiments include the integration of inertial measurement units (IMUs), which may include a combination of accelerometers, gyroscopes and magnetometers to capture complex user gestures involving motion, direction and spin of the sensorized sphere to provide unique output signals.
EDITING OF MIDI FILES
The present disclosure relates to a method of editing an audio stream (S) having at least one tone (T1) extending over time in said stream. The method comprises cutting the stream at a first time point of the stream, producing a first cut (A) having a left cutting end (A.sub.L) and a right cutting end (A.sub.R); allocating a respective memory cell to each of the cutting ends; in each of the memory cells, storing information about the tone; and, for one of the cutting ends, concatenating the cutting end with a further stream cutting end which also has an allocated memory cell with information stored therein about any tones extending to said further cutting end. The concatenating comprises using the information stored in the memory cells for adjusting any of the tones extending to the cutting ends.
Real-time audio signal topology visualization
A user interface for a digital audio workstation provides an overview of the audio signal routing of an audio composition in the form of a node graph. The node graph updates in real time as an audio session is edited. The representation of the nodes on the graph indicates the node type, such as audio input or track, mixer, plug-in, and output, as well as the processing resources assigned to each node. The node graph includes one or more nodes representing submixes that may be adjusted using a mixer channel independently of other submixes or outputs of the audio session. The representation of audio signal flow between the nodes in the graph distinguishes between insert routing and auxiliary sends. The user interface may be used interactively to edit the audio composition by providing a toolbox for creating new nodes and commands for specifying audio signal connections between nodes.
Systems and methods for automatic mixing of media
Audio mix information is received from a plurality of users. Mix rules are determined from the audio mix information from the plurality of users, wherein the mix rules include a first mix rule associated with a first audio item. The first mix rule relates to an overlap of the first audio item with another audio item. The first mix rule is made available to one or more clients. After making the first mix rule available, an indication, from a respective client device, that the first audio item is to be mixed with a second audio item at the respective client device in accordance with the first mix rule is received. In response to the indication, a specification of the first mix rule is transmitted to the respective client device to be applied by the respective client device to generate a transition between the first audio item and the second item.
