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.

A method for generating a musical composition based on user input is described. A first set of musical characteristics from a first input musical piece is received as an input vector. The first set of musical characteristics is perturbed to create a perturbed input vector as input in a first set of nodes in a first visible layer of an unsupervised neural net. The unsupervised neural net comprised of a plurality of computing layers, each computing layer composed of a respective set of nodes. The unsupervised neural net is operated to calculate an output vector from a higher level hidden layer in the unsupervised neural net. The output vector is used to create an output musical piece.

Musical catalog amplification services that leverage or deploy a computer-based musical composition system are described. The computer-based musical composition system employs algorithms and, optionally, artificial intelligence to generate new music based on analyses of existing music. The new music may be wholly distinctive from, or may include musical variations of, the existing music. Rights in the new music generated by the computer-based musical composition system are granted to the rights holder(s) of the existing music. In this way, the musical catalog(s) of the rights holder(s) is/are amplified to include additional music assets. The computer-based musical composition system may be tuned so that the new music sounds more like, or less like, the existing music of the rights holder(s). Revenues generated from the new music are shared between the musical catalog amplification service provider and the rights holder(s).

Implementations of the subject matter described herein provide a solution that enables a machine to automatically generate a melody. In this solution, user emotion and/or environment information is used to select a first melody feature parameter from a plurality of melody feature parameters, wherein each of the plurality of melody feature parameters corresponds to a music style of one of a plurality of reference melodies. The first melody feature parameter is further used to generate a first melody that conforms to the music style and is different from the reference melody. Thus, a melody that matches user emotions and/or environmental information may be automatically created.

A method for analyzing one or more notes in a musical composition, comprising for each note: getting a note, a chord and a scale. computing note properties using the note's value and the chord and the scale. A method for transforming one or more input notes into one or more new notes, comprising for each input note: getting an input note and its note properties, getting a new chord and a new scale for the input note, getting a list of notes candidates, computing distances between the input note and every note in the list, using input note's value, input note's note properties, candidate note's value and candidate note's note properties, finding the candidate that has the minimal distance, and setting a new note value using a note value of the candidate with the minimal distance.

An information processing apparatus according to the present disclosure includes: a storage unit that stores a plurality of pieces of music feature information in which a plurality of types of feature amounts extracted from music information is associated with predetermined identification information, the music feature information being used as learning data in composition processing using machine learning; a reception unit that receives instruction information transmitted from a terminal apparatus; an extraction unit that extracts the music feature information from the storage unit according to the instruction information; and an output unit that outputs presentation information of the music feature information extracted by the extraction unit.

The present disclosure provides method and apparatus for providing personalized songs in automated chatting. A message may be received in a chat flow. Personalized lyrics of a user may be generated based at least on a personal language model of the user in response to the message. A personalized song may be generated based on the personalized lyrics. The personalized song may be provided in the chat flow.

The present invention provides a method for processing audio data, comprising the steps of providing input audio data containing a mixture of audio data including first audio data of a first musical timbre and second audio data of a second musical timbre different from said first musical timbre, decomposing the input audio data to provide decomposed data representative of the first audio data, transforming the decomposed data to obtain third audio data.

A musical piece generation device includes an electronic controller including at least one processor. The electronic controller is configured to execute a plurality of modules including a data acquisition module configured to acquire target musical piece data indicating at least a part of a musical piece, a parameter acquisition module configured to acquire a value of a difficulty level parameter, a generation module configured to, by using a trained generative model, generate, from the target musical piece data and the value of the difficulty level parameter, new musical piece data indicating at least a part of a new musical piece obtained by changing a difficulty level of the musical piece to a difficulty level specified by the difficulty level parameter, and an output module configured to output the new musical piece data that has been generated.
