چکیده

Voice Drummer is a percussion instrument notation interface using spoken percussion patterns as input. Its internal framework is based on the authors’ previous study on voice percussion recognition. Voice Drummer can be used in various applications such as composition, arrangement, and score editing. The system has the capability of adapting to individual users during the practice sessions, enabling performance improvement and also adding entertainment value. A trial usage of the system shows that it would be a useful tool for users with little knowledge or experience in percussion instruments.

This audio-motor transformation also occurs at the sequential level and plays a role in speech and music processing. The present study aimed to demonstrate how the activation pattern of the sensorimotor network was modulated by the sequential nature of the auditory i...
