Multi-track mixing using a model of loudness and partial loudness
نویسندگان
چکیده
A method for generating a mix of multi-track recordings using an auditory model has been developed. The proposed method is based on the concept that a balanced mix is one in which the loudness of all instruments are equal. A sophisticated psychoacoustic loudness model is used to measure the loudness of each track both in quiet and when mixed with any combination of the remaining tracks. Such measures are used to control the track gains in a time-varying manner. Finally we demonstrate how model predictions of partial loudness can be used to counteract energetic masking for any track, allowing the user to achieve better channel intelligibility in complex music mixtures.

Human–Made Rock Mixes Feature Tight Relations Between Spectrum and Loudness
The tremendous success of rock music in the second half of the 20th century has boosted the sophistication of production and mixing techniques for this music genre. However, there is no unified theory of mixing from the viewpoint of sound engineering. In this paper, we highlight relationships between loudness and spectrum in individual tracks, established during the process of mixing. To do so,...
متن کاملLoudness Algorithms for Automatic Mixing
Accurate loudness measurement is imperative for intelligent music mixing systems, where one of the most fundamental tasks is to automate the fader balance. The goal of this short paper is to highlight state-of-the-art loudness algorithms to the automatic mixing community, and give insight into their differences when applied to multi-track audio.
متن کاملPartial Loudness in Multitrack Mixing
Partial loudness can be used as high-level, perceptually relevant metadata in the context of semantic audio, especially in multitrack mixtures or wherever masking scenarios are desired. Subjective evaluation of the partial loudness model of Glasberg and Moore on multitrack signals in the form of equal loudness matching experiment is presented. The observed results imply that the current model u...
متن کاملSound Quantity and Quality of Sampo 3065 Combine Harvester
ABSTRACT- Noise is considered as one of the most debilitating conditions in farming operations. In this study, a number of factors affecting the noise generated by Sampo 3065 combine harvesters were evaluated. Factors were engine speed and gear ratio for combines with and without original cabins. A factorial experiment arranged as a completely randomized design with four replicates was used. Re...
متن کاملThe Effect of Vocal Loudness on Nasalance of Vowels in Persian Adults
Objectives: Nasality is one of the important parameters in pathology of voice resonance. Voice of normal adults has nasality to some extent. It appears that nasality, like other parameters of voice, can be affected by loudness which can be measured in experimental evaluations. This study was conducted to determine the effect of vocal loudness on nasalance of vowels in normal adults and to ident...
