A system for multi-track playback of media content includes: a media device; a user interface, provided at the media device, which displays a visual array of media options, a playback logic, provided within the media device, which is configured so that, while a selected point or region is determined by the user interface as being moved in response to user input, within the visual array of media options, the system determines media options that are proximate to the selected point or region, and adjusts playback parameters for corresponding media content items, by crossfading or otherwise combining playback to reflect the media options relative distances from the selected point or region; and a tempo logic, provided within the media device, which is configured to provide or receive a selected tempo and provide the one or more media content items associated with the selected tempo.

Variations audio playback

A method for controlling a playback tempo of an audio track to be presented at an audio output, the audio track comprising a plurality of audio components, a first audio component of the plurality of audio components being associated with a plurality of sets of audio data, wherein each set of audio data in the plurality of sets of audio data is associated with a respective playback tempo range, the method comprising receiving a playback tempo for presenting the audio track at the audio output, selecting, from the plurality of sets of audio data, a set of audio data that has an associated playback tempo range comprising the received playback tempo, and allocating the selected set of audio data to the first audio component for presenting the audio track at the audio output.

20220093130 · 2022-03-24 ·

In accordance with some embodiments of the disclosed subject matter, mechanisms for seamless audio melding between audio items in a playlist are provided. In some embodiments, a method for transitioning between audio items in playlists is provided, comprising: identifying a sequence of audio items in a playlist of audio items, wherein the sequence of audio items includes a first audio item and a second audio item that is to be played subsequent to the first audio item; and modifying an end portion of the first audio item and a beginning portion of the second audio item, where the end portion of the first audio item and the beginning portion of the second audio item are to be played concurrently to transition between the first audio item and the second audio item, wherein the end portion of the first audio item and the beginning portion of the second audio item have an overlap duration, and wherein modifying the end portion of the first audio item and the beginning portion of the second audio item comprises: generating a first spectrogram corresponding to the end portion of the first audio item and a second spectrogram corresponding to the beginning portion of the second audio item; identifying, for each frequency band in a series of frequency bands, a window over which the first spectrogram within the end portion of the first audio item and the second spectrogram within the beginning portion of the second audio item have a particular cross-correlation; modifying, for each frequency band in the series of frequency bands, the end portion of the first spectrogram and the beginning portion of the second spectrogram such that amplitudes of frequencies within the frequency band decrease within the first spectrogram over the end portion of the first spectrogram and that amplitudes of frequencies within the frequency band increase within the second spectrogram over the beginning portion of the second spectrogram; and generating a modified version of the first audio item the includes the modified end portion of the first audio item based on the modified end portion of the first spectrogram and generating a modified version of the second audio item that includes the modified beginning portion of the second audio item based on the modified beginning portion of the second spectrogram.

Method, apparatus and computer program for processing audio signals

A method including obtaining a first clean signal and a first processed signal dependent upon audio input at a first microphone; obtaining a second clean signal and a second processed signal dependent upon audio input at a second microphone; using the first clean signal and the second clean signal to enable further processing of at least the first processed signal and the second processed signal.

PLATFORMS, MEDIA, AND METHODS PROVIDING A FIRST PLAY STREAMING MEDIA STATION

Disclosed herein are media, systems, and methods of creating and publishing a first play station, wherein a media creator is allowed to select a plurality of audio media and sequence the selected audio media to create an ordered combination and request a first play station. Each audio media in the ordered combination is validated to create a first play station, and the media creator is allowed to play the first play station. After the first paly station is published, a call from a third party player application prompts the published first play station, At least one alteration to the ordered combination of validated audio media can be generated, wherein the at least one alteration is selected from the group consisting of: an alternate validated audio media, an alternate sequence of the ordered combination of validated audio media, or a combination thereof.
