[ EP 16 163 153 ] A method for applying effects to one or more instruments tracks for a musical compilation is disclosed. The method comprises identifying a first virtual musician avatar to be associated with a first instrument track; identifying a virtual producer avatar to be associated with a plurality of first instrument tracks; applying a first series of effects to the first instrument track, the first series of effects being one of predefined sets of music characteristics represented by a visual aspects of the virtual musician avatar; and applying second series of effects in parallel to each of split first instrument tracks, the second series of effects being preconfigured effect (such as sound levels or mix matrix coefficients) sets identified by a visual aspect of the virtual producer avatar. The functions of a music studio for both recording and mastering are thus performed virtually, e.g. in a video game or in a music workstation, resulting in a music production in the real world.

If a pitch bend event is included in a note event, one tone to be sounded in accordance with the note event continuously varies in pitch from a note pitch designated by the note event to another note pitch, as a result of control response to the pitch bend event. For sounding of a note based on an accompaniment pattern, harmony note or the like, the pitch corresponding to the note event is converted in accordance with a designated chord, and thus, not only the note pitch corresponding to the note event but also the other note pitch responsive to the pitch bend event should be converted appropriately. Thus, arrangements are made for accurately determining the pitch-bend-responsive other note pitch that is not identifiable from the note pitch indicated by the note event itself and converting the other note pitch in accordance with a designated chord. Also, where waveform data of a tone comprises bend waveform data continuously varying in pitch, individual note pitches included in the bend waveform data can be converted appropriately in a manner similar to the above.

A system and process for producing a more harmonious musical accompaniment for a musical compilation, the process comprising determining a plurality of probable key signatures for the musical compilation, creating an interval profiling matrix for each of the probable key signatures, finding products of a major key interval profile matrix with each of the interval profiling matrices, summing each of the major key interval products into a running major key sum, finding a product of a minor key interval profile with each of the interval profiling matrices, summing each of the minor key interval products into a running minor key sum, and selecting the most probable key signature from the plurality of probable key signatures by comparing the minor key sum and the major key sum.

A musical instrument and a method which retunes and adjusts volumes in response to the chord being sustained and the way that chord is voiced. The instrument is capable of producing tones, the intervals between which are equal tempered intervals of a twelve note octave, and tones, the intervals between at least some of which are determined by identifying at least selected ones of the notes the instrument is being commanded to produce. The method includes identifying the at least selected ones of the notes the instrument is being commanded to produce, providing a map for mapping the identified notes to a chord type, identifying a note in that chord type, and substituting a frequency closer to a harmonic of the identified note for the frequency of at least one harmonic of at least one other note the instrument is being commanded to produce.

The present invention contains three methods for quickly deducing the fundamental frequency of a complex wave form or signal. One method uses the relationships between and among the frequencies of higher harmonics including ratios of frequencies, differences between frequencies, ratios of frequency differences, and relationships stemming from the fact that harmonic frequencies are modeled by functions of an integer variable whose values represent harmonic ranking numbers. Another method depicts the predicted/modeled relationships of the harmonics of selected frequency registers on logarithmic scales, records the frequencies of detected partials on like scales, and moves the scales with respect to each other searching for a match of three harmonics. When such a match is found, possible harmonic ranking numbers and the implied fundamental frequency can be extracted directly. When the detected partials match more that one set of predicted/modeled harmonic relationships, algorithms of the first method are used to select the deduced fundamental. By still another method, harmonic frequencies for a plurality of fundamentals are amassed and organized so that partials linked to an unknown fundamental can be compared with them and the unknown fundamental deduced.

According to a preferred aspect of the invention, there is provided a method for automatic music jam sessions. A user is able to define in real-time a plurality of different settings which are utilized in real time and which provide instant results. In an automatic mode, the invention will pick settings autonomously, for example song part definition, tone pitch and instruments. In absence of constant user interaction, the invention enters a creative mode wherein the initial user-defined settings are varied to introduce variance into the jam session. The method also monitors data input by instruments connected and played by the user and adapts the setting selection accordingly .
