Abstract: Captured vocals may be automatically transformed using advanced digital signal processing techniques that provide captivating applications, and even purpose-built devices, in which mere novice user-musicians may generate, audibly render and share musical performances. In some cases, the automated transformations allow spoken vocals to be segmented, arranged, temporally aligned with a target rhythm, meter or accompanying backing tracks and pitch corrected in accord with a score or note sequence. Speech-to-song music applications are one such example. In some cases, spoken vocals may be transformed in accord with musical genres such as rap using automated segmentation and temporal alignment techniques, often without pitch correction. Such applications, which may employ different signal processing and different automated transformations, may nonetheless be understood as speech-to-rap variations on the theme.

Abstract translation: 可以使用提供令人兴奋的应用程序的高级数字信号处理技术来自动转换捕获的声乐，甚至专门设计的设备，其中只有新手的用户音乐家可以产生，可听地呈现和共享音乐表演。 在某些情况下，自动转换允许口头声乐被分段，排列，暂时地与目标节奏，表或伴奏背景轨道和音调相一致地按照得分或音符序列校正。 歌曲到歌曲的音乐应用程序就是这样一个例子。 在某些情况下，口语可以根据音乐类型（例如使用自动分割和时间对准技术，通常不进行音高校正）进行转换。 可能采用不同信号处理和不同自动化转换的这种应用可能被理解为主题上的讲话到说唱变体。

Abstract: An application that manipulates audio (or audiovisual) content, automated music creation technologies may be employed to generate new musical content using digital signal processing software hosted on handheld and/or server (or cloud-based) compute platforms to intelligently process and combine a set of audio content captured and submitted by users of modern mobile phones or other handheld compute platforms. The user-submitted recordings may contain speech, singing, musical instruments, or a wide variety of other sound sources, and the recordings may optionally be preprocessed by the handheld devices prior to submission.
