Abstract: The technology disclosed relates to audio signal processing. It includes a series of modules that individually are useful to solve audio signal processing problems. Among the problems addressed are buzz removal, selecting a pitch candidate among pitch candidates based on local continuity of pitch and regional octave consistency, making small adjustments in pitch, ensuring that a selected pitch is consistent with harmonic peaks, determining whether a given frame or region of frames includes harmonic, voiced signal, extracting harmonics from voice signals and detecting vibrato. One environment in which these modules are useful is transcribing singing or humming into a symbolic melody. Another environment that would usefully employ some of these modules is speech processing. Some of the modules, such as buzz removal, are useful in many other environments as well.

Abstract: The technology disclosed relates to audio signal processing. It includes a series of modules that individually are useful to solve audio signal processing problems. Among the problems addressed are buzz removal, selecting a pitch candidate among pitch candidates based on local continuity of pitch and regional octave consistency, making small adjustments in pitch, ensuring that a selected pitch is consistent with harmonic peaks, determining whether a given frame or region of frames includes harmonic, voiced signal, extracting harmonics from voice signals and detecting vibrato. One environment in which these modules are useful is transcribing singing or humming into a symbolic melody. Another environment that would usefully employ some of these modules is speech processing. Some of the modules, such as buzz removal, are useful in many other environments as well.

Abstract: Technologies described relate to coordination between audio and tracking of the corresponding text in an audio recognition mode and an audio playback mode. Optionally, audio recognition includes receiving a signal corresponding to an audio track; determining an identity of the audio track and a current audio position within the audio track; displaying on a display a portion of a text that is linked and synchronized to the audio track identified and automatically scrolling the portion of the text displayed in pace with the audio track playing; and displaying a current text indicator that emphasizes current text, wherein the current text indicator is visually synchronized on the display to current audio playing from the audio track. Optionally include redetermining the current audio position in the audio track from the signal received and updating synchronization of the current text indicator with the current audio playing.
