Rolled or arpeggiated chords are notated chords performed by playing the notes sequentially, usually from lowest to highest in pitch. Arpeggiation is a characteristic of musical expression, or expressive timing, in piano performance. However, very few studies have investigated rolled chord performance. In this paper, we investigate two expressive timing properties of piano rolled chords: equiva...

This article proposes a pedagogical architecture (PA) focused on the development of competencies for music technology in education. This PA used free Web 3.0 technologies, mainly those related to production and musical composition. The pedagogical architecture is geared for teachers and those pursing a teaching degree, working in distance education. The methodology used was a case study with a ...

This SIG intends to investigate the ongoing dialogue between music technology and the field of human-computer interaction. Our specific aims are to explore major findings of specialized musical interface research over recent years and convey these to HCI researchers who may be interested but not yet active in this area, as well as to consider how to stimulate closer cooperation between music te...

This paper describes the design and on-going development of an expressive gestural MIDI interface and how this could enhance live performance of electronic music.

Many markets, including the travel, music, and book markets, are undergoing dramatic changes due do the development of electronic commerce. Reseller margins often decrease significantly and sometimes even entire links in the supply chain are becoming completely superfluous. Even though power markets have been deregulated already for some years in many countries, electronic commerce has not yet ...

Sound source separation has become a popular research topic in computer audition due to its wide range of applications in the analysis and manipulation of audio data. Applications of audio source separation include music information retrieval, automatic transcription of music, and sampling of musical sounds for electronic music composition amongst many others. Through this paper, different algo...

Electronic Music Distribution (EMD) is in demand of robust, automatically extracted music descriptors. We introduce a timbral similarity measures for comparing music titles. This measure is based on a Gaussian model of cepstrum coefficients. We describe the timbre extractor and the corresponding timbral similarity relation. We describe experiments in assessing the quality of the similarity rela...
