Embodiments of the present technology are directed at features and functionalities of a VR/AR enabled digital audio workstation. The disclosed audio workstation can be configured to allow users to record, produce, mix, and edit audio in virtual 3D space based on detecting and manipulating human gestures in a virtual reality environment. The audio can relate to music, voice, background noise, speeches, background noise, one or more musical instruments, special effects music, electronic humming or noise from electrical/mechanical equipment, or any other type of audio.

The present disclosure provides a portable music production apparatus which a USB interface for connecting to a computer device, the apparatus comprises a first control element which is configured to provide a pitch bend functionality and a second control element which can be assigned to modulate any parameter a user desires like a modulation wheel. The apparatus can also be provided with additional programmable control elements.

Methods, devices, systems, and computer programs are presented for providing music while exercising. One method includes an operation for receiving a request for a music segment from a computing device. The request includes the pace of exercise of a user associated with the computing device. The music segment is selected based on the pace, and the music segment is modified to correlate the tempo of the music segment to the pace of exercise. The modified music segment is sent to the computing device to be played in one or more speakers to provide music that is correlated to the exercise.

Provided is a signal processing apparatus having: a sound source separation unit configured to perform sound source separation on a mixed sound signal obtained by mixing a plurality of sound source signals; a sound source type determination unit configured to determine a type of a predetermined sound source signal obtained by the sound source separation; and an output destination control unit configured to output the predetermined sound source signal to a corresponding output device on the basis of a determination result of the sound source type determination unit.

Provided are a control device, a control method and a control system. In a control system, a headphone and a pedal device are in communication with each other through first communication, and the pedal device and a portable terminal are in communication with each other through second communication. Accordingly, even when the headphone can be connected to only one control device, a control instruction from the pedal device can be transmitted to the headphone through the first communication, and a control instruction from the portable terminal can be transmitted to the headphone through the second communication and the first communication.
