8 results about "Semitone" patented technology

A semitone, also called a half step or a half tone, is the smallest musical interval commonly used in Western tonal music, and it is considered the most dissonant when sounded harmonically. It is defined as the interval between two adjacent notes in a 12-tone scale. For example, C is adjacent to C♯; the interval between them is a semitone.

A modular key pipe instrument

This invention discloses a modular, keyed wind instrument, belonging to the field of electronic wind instruments. It includes a modular mouthpiece module (for horizontal / vertical blowing), a key module (containing 7-key or 3-key basic units), a speaker module, and optional traditional instrument appearance kits. Through a unified fingering system: the 7-key and 3-key units correspond to fixed solfège syllables, with a default key of C. Pressing the key shifting double keys raises / lowers the key, pressing the octave double keys raises / lowers an octave, and combining the sharp key raises a semitone. This invention achieves a wind instrument with flexible structure, unified fingering, and significantly reduced learning difficulty through modular combination. It contains multiple wind instrument timbres while retaining traditional appearance characteristics, balancing the cultural heritage of traditional instruments with innovative electronic expression.

Audio adjustment method and device based on semitone constraint and storage medium

The invention provides an audio adjustment method and device based on semitone constraint and a storage medium, and relates to the technical field of audio processing. The audio adjustment method based on the semitone constraint comprises the following steps: processing an initial singing audio to obtain a plurality of note segments in the initial singing audio; calculating the pitch deviation between each note segment and the adjacent note segment to obtain the pitch deviation corresponding to each note segment; if the pitch deviation corresponding to the target note segment is not within the preset pitch deviation range, determining a target semitone from a plurality of preset semitone grids; and according to the target semitone, performing pitch adjustment on the target note segment to obtain a first target singing audio. The pitch deviation corresponding to each note segment is obtained through calculation, the pitch deviation corresponding to each note segment can reflect local continuity and stability, the target semitone is determined based on the pitch deviation corresponding to each note segment, pitch adjustment is carried out, lattice jumping and step feeling can be avoided, and then the pitch calibration effect can be improved.

A keyed bass flute

ActiveCN224287768UFlutes/fifesLittle fingerFlute
This utility model discloses a keyed bass flute, comprising a flute tube with an inner diameter of 20 mm, a blowhole section and a sound-producing section, the sound-producing section being 605 mm long. The blowhole section has a blowhole and a membrane hole. The sound-producing section, along its length, has twelve finger holes, a fundamental tone hole, and a rear sound hole. The twelve finger holes, from the fundamental tone hole to the membrane hole, are arranged in the following order: first little finger finger hole, first ring finger finger hole, first middle finger finger hole, first index finger finger hole, first interlocking key finger hole, second little finger finger hole, second ring finger finger hole, second middle finger hole, second interlocking key finger hole, second thumb finger hole, second index finger hole, and thumb single-key finger hole. This keyed bass flute, through simple keying and adjustment of the ratio of inner diameter to tube length, achieves the requirements of twelve-tone equal temperament, making modulation convenient. Each semitone has a finger hole, ensuring accurate modulation.

Automatic arrangement method, automatic arrangement device, and computer program product

ActiveCN113870817Beasy to playreduce the numberElectrophonic musical instrumentsChord (music)Octave
The present invention provides an automatic arrangement method, an automatic arrangement device, and a computer program product, which can produce arrangement data that is easy to play and has a reduced number of simultaneously sounding notes from musical piece data. The present invention determines an outer sound symbol, and the outer sound symbol is the highest in pitch among notes that have substantially the same sounding start time in a melody part obtained from the musical piece data. A melody part from which an inner sound symbol is deleted is produced, and the inner sound symbol starts to sound during the sounding period of the outer sound symbol and is low in pitch. For each pitch range in which the pitch range of one octave is staggered by one semitone, a candidate accompaniment part in which the root notes of each chord of the chord data of the musical piece data are arranged to sound at their sounding timing is produced, and an accompaniment part is selected therefrom. The arrangement data obtained from the melody part and the accompaniment part can be set as arrangement data that is easy to play and has a reduced number of simultaneously sounding notes.
