A touch screen is coupled to the housing within the housing front side. A microprocessor is coupled within the housing and is in operational communication with the touch screen. The microprocessor includes a digital synthesizer to convert vocal audio inputs to digital music. A microphone, a speaker, a headphone jack, and a battery are coupled to the housing and are in operational communication with the microprocessor. A port is coupled to the housing and is in operational communication with the microprocessor and the battery. A plurality of control buttons is coupled to the housing and is in operational communication with the microprocessor.

An electronic musical instrument is tonally controlled by the configuration of a user's mouth and lips. The present invention uses a generated frequency signal to excite a first frequency signal from the user's mouth and lips. The present invention then adjusts the generated frequency signal using a phase-locked loop controller to achieve a close match to the natural frequency of the user's mouth and lips. The generated frequency signal is then played back after processing.

Provided is a control device which controls an electronic musical instrument, comprising: an acquisition means which understands the intention of an utterance of a user on the basis of the utterance, and acquires from a dialogue engine that generates first data in which the intention is stated, the first data generated in response to the utterance; a storage means which stores conversion data in which the first data and a control command for controlling the electronic musical instrument are associated with each other; and a conversion means which generates, on the basis of the acquired first data and the conversion data, second data suitable for a control interface of the electronic musical instrument to be controlled, and transmits the second data to the electronic musical instrument.

An information processing device includes at least one processor configured to execute a plurality of modules including an input module into which natural language that includes an adjective is configured to be input by a user, and a timbre estimation module configured to output timbre data based on the natural language input by the user, by using a trained model configured to output the timbre data from the adjective.

The technology can use a music generation platform to ingest raw audio to generate multi-level music (i.e., multiple streams corresponding to different instruments) based on user steerings, such as genre, artist, style, etc. Implementations can apply an encoder to take the raw audio and generate a sequence of discrete representations. Implementations can then input the sequence of discrete representations to an embedding layer that converts the sequence of discrete representations to sequences of embeddings in the same dimensionality, which are summed together to form a single sequence. The sequence of summed embeddings can be provided to a neural network that produces sequences of predicted embeddings for multiple instruments, which are then used by a coder layer to generate instrument-specific code sequences. Implementations can input the instrument-specific code sequences to a decoder, which can also receive the user steerings, and convert them into Mel spectrograms, then instrument-specific audio waveforms.

A canonicalizer can be used with or implemented within a natural language understanding (NLU) component of a speech processing system to enable the system to properly identify an entity to which a user refers in a spoken utterance. The canonicalizer may determine a first canonical value using a gazetteer associated with a determined intent of the spoken utterance. The canonicalizer may determine a second canonical value using a look-up table of canonical values. The canonicalizer may then output either the first canonical value or the second canonical value for further NLU processing, such as entity resolution.

Calculation is performed to provide a delay and attenuated oscillation to a blowing pressure detected by a blowing pressure sensor which detects blowing pressure, and a musical sound is generated based on the blowing pressure subjected to the calculation. As a result, for example, a blowing feeling of an electronic wind instrument can be made closer to a blowing feeling of a natural musical instrument.

A sound control device includes an obtainer and a determiner. The obtainer obtains performance information including sound pitch information indicating a sound pitch and sound volume information indicating a sound volume detected as a continuous quantity. The determiner determines a note start and a note end based on a comparison between the sound volume and a sound-volume threshold and based on a change in the sound pitch. Upon determining that there is a predetermined way of change in the sound volume, the determiner determines a time of the change as the note end and determine the time as the note start, irrespective of the comparison between the sound volume and the sound-volume threshold.

Provided is an apparatus for providing an accompaniment based on a humming melody. The apparatus includes a user input receiver configured to receive a humming melody of a user, a melody extractor configured to measure a pitch from the received humming melody, a key extractor configured to extract a key from the humming melody, and a chord generator configured to generate a chord for each measure based on the humming melody.
