BeatJockey: A New Tool for Enhancing DJ Skills
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present BeatJockey, a prototype interface which makes use of Audio Mosaicing (AM), beat-tracking and machine learning techniques, for supporting Diskjockeys (DJs) by proposing them new ways of interaction with the songs on the DJ’s playlist. This prototype introduces a new paradigm to DJing in which the user has the capability to mix songs interacting with beat-units that accompany the DJ’s mix. For this type of interaction, the system suggests song slices taken from songs selected from a playlist, which could go well with the beats of whatever master song is being played. In addition the system allows the synchronization of multiple songs, thus permitting flexible, coherent and rapid progressions in the DJ’s mix. BeatJockey uses the Reactable, a musical tangible user interface (TUI), and it has been designed to be used by all DJs regardless of their level of expertise, as the system helps the novice while bringing new creative opportunities to the expert.
