Dispersive and Pitch-Synchronous Processing of Sounds
نویسندگان
چکیده
The aim of this paper is to present results on digital processing of sounds by means of both dispersive delay lines and pitch-synchronous transforms in a unified framework. The background on frequency warping is detailed and applications of this technique are pointed out with reference to the existing literature. These include transient extraction, pitch shifting, harmonic detuning and auditory modeling.

Pitch-synchronous response of cat cochlear nerve fibers to speech sounds.
Responses of individual fibers of the cat cochlear nerve to Japanese monosyllabic speech sounds were described. Responses were analyzed by making post-stimulus time histograms and "pitch-synchronous" period histograms. Almost all neurons responsive to speech sounds showed repetitive discharges synchronous with the pitch period irrespective of their characteristic frequencies (CF). The frequency...

In this paper we have extracted the notes of Iranian scale from the traditional music played by the great musician Shahnazi on the TAR. Then, by analyzing the spectrum of the notes and by using our special averaging we have found the pitch attributed to the components’ frequency and found the interval between the notes. The results are in comple agreement with Pythagorean scale. Pitch is a su...
متن کاملAudio Effects Based on Biorthogonal Time-Varying Frequency Warping
We illustrate the mathematical background and musical use of a class of audio effects based on frequency warping. These effects alter the frequency content of a signal via spectral mapping. They can be implemented in dispersive tapped delay lines based on a chain of all-pass filters. In a homogeneous line with first-order all-pass sections, the signal formed by the output samples at a given tim...
متن کاملThe Processing of Temporal Pitch and Melody Information in Auditory Cortex
An fMRI experiment was performed to identify the main stages of melody processing in the auditory pathway. Spectrally matched sounds that produce no pitch, fixed pitch, or melody were all found to activate Heschl's gyrus (HG) and planum temporale (PT). Within this region, sounds with pitch produced more activation than those without pitch only in the lateral half of HG. When the pitch was varie...
متن کاملDual-pitch processing mechanisms in primate auditory cortex.
Pitch, our perception of how high or low a sound is on a musical scale, is a fundamental perceptual attribute of sounds and is important for both music and speech. After more than a century of research, the exact mechanisms used by the auditory system to extract pitch are still being debated. Theoretically, pitch can be computed using either spectral or temporal acoustic features of a sound. We...
