Gardner Submitted to the Program in Media Arts and Sciences, School of Architecture and Planning on August 8, 1997, in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy. Abstract 3-D audio systems, which can surround a listener with sounds at arbitrary locations, are an important part of immersive interfaces. A new approach is presented for implementing 3-D audio using a pair of conventional loudspeakers. The new idea is to use the tracked position of the listener’s head to optimize the acoustical presentation, and thus produce a much more realistic illusion over a larger listening area than existing loudspeaker 3-D audio systems. By using a remote head tracker, for instance based on computer vision, an immersive audio environment can be created without donning headphones or other equipment.

  • Pitch-Shifting Algorithm Design and Applications in Music
    DEGREE PROJECT IN ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING, SECOND CYCLE, 30 CREDITS STOCKHOLM, SWEDEN 2019 Pitch-shifting algorithm design and applications in music THÉO ROYER KTH ROYAL INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY SCHOOL OF ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING AND COMPUTER SCIENCE ii Abstract Pitch-shifting lowers or increases the pitch of an audio recording. This technique has been used in recording studios since the 1960s, many Beatles tracks being produced using analog pitch-shifting effects. With the advent of the first digital pitch-shifting hardware in the 1970s, this technique became essential in music production. Nowa- days, it is massively used in popular music for pitch correction or other creative pur- poses. With the improvement of mixing and mastering processes, the recent focus in the audio industry has been placed on the high quality of pitch-shifting tools. As a consequence, current state-of-the-art literature algorithms are often outperformed by the best commercial algorithms. Unfortunately, these commercial algorithms are ”black boxes” which are very complicated to reverse engineer. In this master thesis, state-of-the-art pitch-shifting techniques found in the liter- ature are evaluated, attaching great importance to audio quality on musical signals. Time domain and frequency domain methods are studied and tested on a wide range of audio signals. Two offline implementations of the most promising algorithms are proposed with novel features. Pitch Synchronous Overlap and Add (PSOLA), a sim- ple time domain algorithm, is used to create pitch-shifting, formant-shifting, pitch correction and chorus effects on voice and monophonic signals. Phase vocoder, a more complex frequency domain algorithm, is combined with high quality spec- tral envelope estimation and harmonic-percussive separation to design a polyvalent pitch-shifting and formant-shifting algorithm.

  • Timbretron:Awavenet(Cyclegan(Cqt(Audio))) Pipeline for Musical Timbre Transfer
    Published as a conference paper at ICLR 2019 TIMBRETRON:AWAVENET(CYCLEGAN(CQT(AUDIO))) PIPELINE FOR MUSICAL TIMBRE TRANSFER Sicong Huang1;2, Qiyang Li1;2, Cem Anil1;2, Xuchan Bao1;2, Sageev Oore2;3, Roger B. Grosse1;2 University of Toronto1, Vector Institute2, Dalhousie University3 ABSTRACT In this work, we address the problem of musical timbre transfer, where the goal is to manipulate the timbre of a sound sample from one instrument to match another instrument while preserving other musical content, such as pitch, rhythm, and loudness. In principle, one could apply image-based style transfer techniques to a time-frequency representation of an audio signal, but this depends on having a representation that allows independent manipulation of timbre as well as high- quality waveform generation. We introduce TimbreTron, a method for musical timbre transfer which applies “image” domain style transfer to a time-frequency representation of the audio signal, and then produces a high-quality waveform using a conditional WaveNet synthesizer. We show that the Constant Q Transform (CQT) representation is particularly well-suited to convolutional architectures due to its approximate pitch equivariance. Based on human perceptual evaluations, we confirmed that TimbreTron recognizably transferred the timbre while otherwise preserving the musical content, for both monophonic and polyphonic samples. We made an accompanying demo video 1 which we strongly encourage you to watch before reading the paper. 1 INTRODUCTION Timbre is a perceptual characteristic that distinguishes one musical instrument from another playing the same note with the same intensity and duration. Modeling timbre is very hard, and it has been referred to as “the psychoacoustician’s multidimensional waste-basket category for everything that cannot be labeled pitch or loudness”2.
