Current Research in concatenative sound synthesis
نویسنده
چکیده
Concatenative synthesis is a promising method of musical sound synthesis with a steady stream of work and publications in recent years. It uses a large database of sound snippets to assemble a given target phrase. We explain its principle and components and its main applications, and compare existing concatenative synthesis approaches. We then list the most urgent problems for further work on concatenative synthesis.

Concatenative Sound Synthesis: The Early Years
Concatenative sound synthesis is a promising method of musical sound synthesis with a steady stream of work and publications for over five years now. This article offers a comparative survey and taxonomy of the many different approaches to concatenative synthesis throughout the history of electronic music, starting in the 1950s, even if they weren’t known as such at their time, up to the recent...

متن کاملA System for Data-driven Concatenative Sound Synthesis
In speech synthesis, concatenative data-driven synthesis methods prevail. They use a database of recorded speech and a unit selection algorithm that selects the segments that match best the utterance to be synthesized. Transferring these ideas to musical sound synthesis allows a new method of high quality sound synthesis. Usual synthesis methods are based on a model of the sound signal. It is v...
متن کاملNuvolet: 3D Gesture-driven Collaborative Audio Mosaicing
This research presents a 3D gestural interface for collaborative concatenative sound synthesis and audio mosaicing. Our goal is to improve the communication between the audience and performers by means of an enhanced correlation between gestures and musical outcome. Nuvolet consists of a 3D motion controller coupled to a concatenative synthesis engine. The interface detects and tracks the perfo...
متن کاملA compositional approach to analysis re-synthesis
This report summarises the work achieved in the framework of a composer in research project in the IMTR team at IRCAM. In this project we have experimented with different realtime processing techniques for the analysis, transformation, and resynthesis of particular morphological aspects of live performed voice and instrumental sounds. Based on segment-wise sound descriptions, the developed tool...
