| | Training Software for Perfect Pitch |
| | Absolute pitch is not just a party trick of being able to "name notes." With solid ear training in absolute and relative pitch, you can easily pick apart any piece of music and know exactly what you've got. | | | When I turn on my computer or swap between users the chord and the theme melody have the target pitch in them. | | | This new patent pending method is the result of years of research into absolute pitch, education theory, and perceptual development. |

| | HISTORY |
| | Music was developed by the different permutations of pitch and rhythmic values. | | | Music V variants include MUSIC360 and MUSIC11 for the IBM360 and the PDP11 computers, these were written by Barry Vercoe, Roger Hale, and Carl Howe at MIT, respectively. | | | Gottfried Michael Koenig used PR-1 (Project 1), a computer program that was written in Fortran and implemented on an IBM 7090 computer. |

| | Leonardo On-Line: Art, Design and Gestalt Theory |
| | In Dunn’s previous music programs using DNA or protein sequences to generate music, pitches were assigned in two ways, either absolutely by giving a fixed pitch to each amino acid or relatively by making a frequency histogram of the amino acids in the protein and assigning more consonant intervals to the more frequent amino acids. | | | The computer& great strength is in its use as a compositional tool for algorithmic music – music that is developed with computer processed rules which can combine together in tonal and structural relationships that would be difficult if not impossible to calculate by traditional means. | | | While algorithmic processes have given electronic art music a means of achieving deep structure, it is largely an alien structure to our 20th century ears. |

| | Music and Connectionism provides a fresh approach to both fields, using techniques of connectionism and parallel distributed processing to look at a wide range of topics in music research, from pitch perception to chord fingering to composition. | | | Music and Connectionism is based on a core of articles originally appearing as two special issues of the Computer Music Journal. | | | They combine their different backgrounds in computer science, psychology, and music, and share a fascination with the computational modelling approach to music perception and performance. |

| | At all times, Melodyne uno reacts in a highly musical way preserving, for example, the original phasing and even the vibrato when correcting the pitch, as well as recognizing the underlying scale and transposing correctly from a musical standpoint. | | | NoteAbility combines both musical intelligence and graphical flexibility in a direct and intuitive graphical user interface. | | | The program is easy to learn and use, and there are macros for the two most often used editing functions, Correct Pitch and Quantize Timing, that make it possible to tidy up a performers intonation and timing errors with the minimum number of mouse clicks. |

| | CHAPTER 3 -- THE SEVEN PARAMETERS OF MUSICAL NOTATION |
| | Musical notation consists of symbols which deal mostly with two of the seven parameters--pitch and duration. | | | In its raw essence, the system of musical notation is a system of information storage. | | | MIDI, a music system designed for computers, usually uses a system of notation different from the traditional one--but covers the same seven parameters. |

| | Even with a more recent perspective, and with hindsight to advances in computer technology, the distinctions between interactive and traditional music practice can sometimes be difficult to define. | | | More recently the use of computers in the performer/instrument relationship has made a different type of instrument possible, one which is capable of more complex real time responses to gesture. | | | The invention of the Theremin in 1920 demonstrated for the first time an instrument which could be played without any direct physical contact. |

| | Pitch is often cited as one of the fundamental aspects of music. | | | In music, pitch is the perception of the frequency of a note. | | | The need to standardize pitch levels, at least within one city or country, rose as performance of music which combined the organ with instrumental ensembles became more popular. |

| | The MIDI protocol is a music description language in binary form. | | | In 1840s England, J. Curwen (1816-1880) introduced a system, earlier developed by Sarah Glover (1785-1867) of Norwich, which was designed to help in the sight-reading of music. | | | The clef establishes the pitch of the note on one particular line of the staff and thereby fixes the pitch of all the other notes lying on, or related to, the same staff. |

| | This is very rarely done in practice, as it does not solve the problem of the movie and the music still playing back 4% too fast, even if it is now at the correct audio pitch. | | | In musical terms, this equates to a rise in pitch of approximately one semitone. | | | One possible partial solution is for the movie's soundtrack to be digitally processed so that it plays back at the correct pitch on video. |

| | On this line of reasoning, absolute pitch for music might then be acquired by tone language speakers in the same way as they would acquire the pitches of a second tone language. | | | Absolute pitch, popularly known as "perfect pitch," is the ability to name or produce a musical note of particular pitch without benefit of a reference note. | | | In this, the first large-scale study in which the prevalence of absolute pitch in normal populations was compared using a direct test, we examined the prevalence of absolute pitch in two groups of music students. |

| | French Horn Stopping -- Why the pitch shift? |
| | The black lines show the drop in pitch that occurs when the mute is inserted; the blue lines show the pitch rise that would happen if the phantom node could be pushed into the bell. | | | When the "stopping mute" (or the hand, which the mute emulates) is inserted into the bell, the set of pitches produced for any given fingering is one semitone higher than it would be without the mute. | | | The interval of the shift varies, depending on the starting pitch. |

| | pitch (music) - Hutchinson encyclopedia article about pitch (music) |
| | At times two pitches were in use, the higher for orchestral performances and the lower ‘classical’ or ‘French’ pitch for church and purely vocal music. | | | This meant that music in the newer pitch sometimes became too high for singers, and also required many of the stringed instruments designed for the old, lower pitch to be modified. | | | Pitch can now be measured accurately by electronic tuning devices. |

| | The results of this study show for the first time that the precision of automatic pitch control in speech is related to a basic musical ability. | | | Thus the more musical group had a more precise automatic control for expressing internally represented pitch targets in speech. | | | This new finding once again indicates that the neural mechanisms for speech and music may be more closely related than is usually assumed. |

| | This is a widespread problem in speech and music processing: identifying the local periodicity of a sound with a perceived pitch. | | | Autocorrelation is the classic method, but it makes a lot of common errors, so there are many approaches to improving it. | | | This project would involve implementing one or more simple compression schemes, and investigating how they perform for different kinds of signals, as well as the kinds of distortion they introduce. |
