Spectrogram

For songs, a very powerful tool in spectrum analysis is called spectrogram. Instead of the usual spectrum, which is amplitude vs freq, we can plot a spectrogram, which is a two-dimensional (freq vs time)description of sheet music. Using "Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star" as an example, the pic...

First, let's determine the file size involved (see How to cut file size ). By direct calculation, your 5-hour .wav file size is 3.175GB. By contrast your .mp3 file size is, 10 times smaller, at 288MB. Fast save requires a high performance hard drive, if you love buying hardware: 1. bigger Cache Find...

adding noise

You don't need to record noise yourself. Goldwave has some built-in features which you can take advantage. For example, if you want to add white noise or hiss, click on expression evaluator button, under group name(version 4) or presets(version 5) select Noise, then you can select white noise, hiss ...

how to record my voice into a music?

There is a post which serves an example of adding vocals to background music. The post uses "Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star" as an example to create stereo background music first, then adds my vocals later. See adding vocals.

Recovering Vocals by removing background music

The problem is not due to song creators but lack of info by the end users or whoever needs to process the signals. The song creators may have complete knowledge of V but the end users don't. Why can't they pass that piece of info to the end users whether explicitly( in terms of V) or implicitly (in ...

Recovering Vocals by removing background music

If you are a song creator and when you add vocals, you can certainly generate RD when you generate L and R signals knowing that it is an absolutely essential piece of info. In other word, you don't calculate RD from L and R, you generate all three. The point I try to make is this: when you add vocal...

Recovering Vocals by removing background music

How about if we introduce the third equation: RD=MR-ML+V by assuming RD is available which can be generated when we add the vocal We now have 3 equations with 3 unkowns Sum(S) L+R = ML + MR + 2V Difference(D) L-R= ML-MR Reverse Diff (RD) RD= MR-ML+V The availability of RD will guarantee the solution...

Can anyone explain the past attempts to manipulate the L+R, L-R, Left-only, or Right-only signals to remove or extract signals. Their assumptions, successs, failure and conclusion.

Recovering Vocals by removing background music

Chris, can you tell me what kind of signals are available for recovering vocals? I'm not familiar with current recovering technology. Can we assume sum and difference are available? What do you mean by negative difference? Can we assume it is also available? Where can we get some references on this ...

Recovering Vocals by removing background music

In Removing vocals , it is observed that if reverse difference signal is available, we can recover both right channel and left channel signals. In addition, if both difference and reverse difference signals are available, we can recover vocals by simply mixing these two signals (Diff+ Rev Diff). It ...

Removing Vocals - New Trick just in time for Halloween!

If you create new left and right channel signals by using sum+vocal(Left) and difference+vocal(Right) of the original channels, then you can use a new trick "Right - Left" to recover the original left channel signal. Using old trick, after Effect -> Stereo -> Reduce Vocals, you get a signa...
