is this for karaoke purposes? oh, I think I missed something here. |
|
|
No, I was thinking more for checking your track wasn't an accidental cover of something else... Or it might be used in court copyright cases. |

([po], Check your multiply account) |
|
|
what a cacophony! :( now you know I have no ear for this stuff. |
|
|
Listen to it on headphones and one channel at a time (pop-in/out your headphones, if you can't cope with the binauralness of it ;) ) |
|
|
BTW, it sounds perfectly normal to me. Actually, I quite like it. |
|
|
it repeats - I went off to read something and yes, its growing on me - no headphones though. |
|
|
more an automated search than a compare, yes ? |
|
|
Yes, but that's what text differs do |
|
|
I mean automated searching through a large database of songs, rather than one at a time (for which you can use your ears). |
|
|
No, not a database. You provide two songs and it analyses them and plays correllated parts alongside eachother. I suppose you could run the comparison against all the music on iTunes/Amazon etc... but that may take some time. |

Please, pretty please? With marmalade on top? |

Kind of related - It's trivial to find the difference between a track and its mp3 or other lossily encoded product; it's just a straightforward subtraction of each corresponding sample value, taking into account any padding at the track's end(s). The result is essentially pure compression artifact, and is rather interesting to hear. |
|
|
What you are trying to do sounds highly non trivial. |
|
|
Theres actually a feature of a lot of audio editors
called remove vocals that uses the difference
between the left and right channels to remove
whatever is exactly in the middle (usually the
vocals). |

[mouseposture] are you on multiply.com? {social network} |

Get a (free) account and send a PM personal message to user [dubatmultiply] {let me know your HB handle, too} and I'll let you have a listen. |

[spidermother], non-trivial, but non-impossible... Shazam manages to do something a little similar... and arguably, part of the task. |
|
|
[ojsx], yes, but usually just clever mixing (subtracting the common signal - which works becauce the vocal is usually on both L/R channels). Not really the same thing, but might be part of the task, too. |
|
|
[bigsleep], well talking Italian isn't going to help, is it?!
It could just pitch-hift/tempo-shift one track relative to the other... Non-trivial, but... somewhere I have a great link to show you... Meanwhile, skedaddle over to Multiply, let me know your Id, and listen (and retract that bone, sir!) |
|
|
[Dub] Sure, I didnt mean to suggest it was the same
thing; just thought it would be of interest if you
didnt know about it. |
|
|
I feel the need to stick the phrase "aural turpitude" somewhere. |
|
|
Did it stay in, or has it fallen out? |
