SMART TRAINING ACCESSORY FOR MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS
A smart training accessory connected to musical instrument for aiding users in learning and collaboration is disclosed. The accessory includes a plurality of sensors for collecting data pertaining to the musical instrument. A microcontroller processes the data collected by the plurality of sensors to: (a) determine a type of musical instrument to which the smart training accessory is connected and (b) generate an alert for encouraging an individual to play the musical instrument when the user enters a monitoring area within the vicinity of the smart training accessory. Furthermore, when the user plays the musical instrument, the plurality of sensors captures data including audio recordings and transmits the data to a training and synchronization system. The training and synchronization system processes the received data to generate real-time feedback for the user and further aids collaboration with other users.
HARMONICS LEARNING SYSTEM AND METHOD
According to one embodiment, provided is a harmonics learning system comprising: a communication unit for providing, to a user terminal, sheet music of at least one first voice part, and receiving, from the user terminal, sheet music of at least one second voice part that excludes the first voice part; a model generation unit for generating a scoring model by using a plurality of rules divided into vertical elements and horizontal elements; and a control unit for marking harmonic scores with the sheet music of the first voice part and the sheet music of the second voice part by using the scoring model.
KIT FOR FACILITATING MUSIC LEARNING
The present disclosure provides a kit for facilitating music learning. The kit comprises: a receptacle configured to represent a music note, the receptacle comprising a slot; and a modifier card configured to be inserted into the slot of the receptacle for modifying at least one of an accent, volume, articulation, or chromatic alteration of the music note based on a design of the modifier card, wherein the receptacle and modifier card serves as an indication for a user to vocally perform the modified music note.
Performance training apparatus and method
For each sound of a model performance, performance information designating a sound generation timing and sound are supplied, and for each of a plurality of phrases into which the model performance is divided, intensity information indicative of an intensity of sound for the phrase is supplied. In accordance with a progression of a performance time and for each phrase of the model performance, the intensity information is acquired ahead of a start timing when a performance of the phrase is to be started, and the intensity of sound common to sounds in the phrase is presented based on the acquired intensity information. The intensity of the sound is presented in a visual or audible manner. In this way, a human player can know, through a visual display and/or an audible sound, an intensity of a key depression operation for each phrase of the model performance before starting the phrase. As a result, the human player can practice the performance while being aware of the intensity of sound for each phrase.
Systems, methods, and apparatuses for operating a music educational tool
Embodiments herein illustrate an educational musical game. The educational musical game includes a first set of polygon tokens representing a first combination of a first set of musical notes and a first musical interval between musical notes in the first set of musical notes. Further educational musical game includes a second set of polygon tokens representing a second combination of a second set of musical notes and a second musical interval between the musical notes in the second set of musical notes. The second set of polygon tokens is configured to be coupled with the first set of polygon tokens based on one or more rules associated with the first set of musical notes and the second set of musical notes.
Harmonics learning system and method
According to one embodiment, provided is a harmonics learning system comprising: a communication unit for providing, to a user terminal, sheet music of at least one first voice part, and receiving, from the user terminal, sheet music of at least one second voice part that excludes the first voice part; a model generation unit for generating a scoring model by using a plurality of rules divided into vertical elements and horizontal elements; and a control unit for marking harmonic scores with the sheet music of the first voice part and the sheet music of the second voice part by using the scoring model.
Music learning aid
A music learning aid, comprising: a first rotatable circular substrate having a radius (R1) comprising an in-use first visible circular scale displayed on the first substrate, the visible display comprising a plurality of indicia for indicating corresponding musical notes such that the musical notes indicated in the visible display scale ascend in frequency in a clock-wise or anti-clockwise direction; a second circular substrate having a radius (R3), the second substrate being arranged to be substantially concentric and rotatable relative to the first substrate by the fastening arrangement to enable the second substrate to rotate relative to the first substrates, the second substrate comprising a polygon with vertices of the polygon being located along the circumference of the second substrate, the second substrate comprising respective indicia corresponding to each of the vertices for indicating a respective musical mode selected from a set of a plurality of musical modes.
Teaching vocal harmonies
Method of teaching a vocal harmony involves a computing device which automatically generates a plurality of audio presentations of a musical composition in a predetermined series. Each audio presentation in the series is different from the other audio presentations in the series and is configured to assist the user in progressively learning the selected vocal harmony part. Each of the plurality of audio presentations in the predetermined series is made different from others of the audio presentation in the predetermined series by selectively controlling (1) the particular ones of the plurality of vocal harmony parts that are included in each of the audio presentations, and/or (2) a magnitude of an audio volume that is applied to each of the plurality of vocal harmony parts that is included in each of the audio presentations.
MUSIC LEARNING AID
A music learning aid, comprising: a first rotatable circular substrate having a radius (R1) comprising an in-use first visible circular scale displayed on the first substrate, the visible display comprising a plurality of indicia for indicating corresponding musical notes such that the musical notes indicated in the visible display scale ascend in frequency in a clock-wise or anti-clockwise direction; a second circular substrate having a radius (R3), the second substrate being arranged to be substantially concentric and rotatable relative to the first substrate by the fastening arrangement to enable the second substrate to rotate relative to the first substrates, the second substrate comprising a polygon with vertices of the polygon being located along the circumference of the second substrate, the second substrate comprising respective indicia corresponding to each of the vertices for indicating a respective musical mode selected from a set of a plurality of musical modes.
