Automated Horizontal Orchestration based on Multichannel Musical Recordings
نویسندگان
چکیده
Orchestration of computer-aided music composition aims to approximate musical expression using vertical instrument sound combinations, i.e. through finding appropriate sets of instruments to replicate synthesized sound samples. In this work, we focus on horizontal orchestration replication, i.e. the potential of replicating the instantaneous intensity variation of a number of instruments that comprise an existing, target music recording. A method that efficiently performs horizontal orchestration replication is provided, based on the calculation of the instrumental Intensity Variation Curves. It is shown that this approach achieves perceptually accurate automated orchestration replication when combined with automated music generation algorithms.

On the automated recognition of seriously distorted musical recordings
In this paper, a new methodology is presented for the automated recognition-identification of musical recordings that have suffered from a high degree of playing speed and frequency band distortion. The procedure of recognition is essentially based on the comparison between an unknown musical recording and a set of model ones, according to some predefined specific characteristics of the signals...
متن کاملQuantifying Auditory Event-Related Responses in Multichannel Human Intracranial Recordings
Multichannel intracranial recordings are used increasingly to study the functional organization of human cortex. Intracranial recordings of event-related activity, or electrocorticography (ECoG), are based on high density electrode arrays implanted directly over cortex, combining good temporal and spatial resolution. Developing appropriate statistical methods for analyzing event-related respons...
متن کاملReal-Time Analysis of Sensory Dissonance
We describe a tool for real-time musical analysis based on a measure of roughness, the principal element of sensory dissonance. While most historical musical analysis is based on the notated score, our tool permits analysis of a recorded or live audio signal in its full complexity. We proceed from the work of Richard Parncutt and Ernst Terhardt, extending their algorithms for the psychoacoustic...
متن کاملTime-frequency and synchrony analysis of responses to steady-state auditory and musical stimuli from multichannel EEG
Brain responses to audio stimuli are analysed using data driven time-frequency analysis. This is achieved based on the electroencephalogram (EEG) recordings and with auditory chirps or music as the audio stimulus. The empirical mode decomposition (EMD) is applied to multichannel EEG recordings, and the insight into the brain responses is provided by the analysis of the dynamics of auditory stea...
متن کاملSolving the musical orchestration problem using multiobjective constrained optimization with a genetic local search approach
In this paper a computational approach of musical orchestration is presented. We consider orchestration as the search of relevant sound combinations within large instruments sample databases and propose two cooperating metaheuristics to solve this problem. Orchestration is seen here as a particular case of finding optimal constrained multisets on a large ensemble with respect to several objecti...
