Abstract
Implementations generally relate to automated equalizer adjustments based on audio characteristics. In some implementations, a method includes detecting music that is being currently played on an audio device. The method further includes adjusting one or more equalizer settings of an equalizer device based at least in part on a music genre associated with the music. The method further includes outputting the music based at least in part on the adjusting of the one or more equalizer settings of the equalizer device.
Claims20
A system comprising:
- one or more processors;
- and
- logic encoded in one or more non-transitory computer-readable storage media for execution by the one or more processors and when executed operable to cause the one or more processors to perform operations comprising:
- detecting music that is being currently played on an audio device, wherein the music comprises a song;
- adjusting one or more equalizer settings of an equalizer device based at least in part on a music genre associated with the song and based at least in part on at least one change in the music genre during the song, wherein the adjusting of the one or more equalizer settings is performed gradually in order to minimize an ability of a user to perceive the at least one change;
- and
- outputting the music based at least in part on the adjusting of the one or more equalizer settings of the equalizer device.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium with program instructions stored thereon, the instructions when executed by one or more processors are operable to cause the one or more processors to perform operations comprising:
- detecting music that is being currently played on an audio device, wherein the music comprises a song;
- adjusting one or more equalizer settings of an equalizer device based at least in part on a music genre associated with the song and based at least in part on at least one change in the music genre during the song, wherein the adjusting of the one or more equalizer settings is performed gradually in order to minimize an ability of a user to perceive the at least one change;
- and
- outputting the music based at least in part on the adjusting of the one or more equalizer settings of the equalizer device.
A computer-implemented method comprising:
- detecting music that is being currently played on an audio device, wherein the music comprises a song;
- adjusting one or more equalizer settings of an equalizer device based at least in part on a music genre associated with the song and based at least in part on at least one change in the music genre during the song, wherein the adjusting of the one or more equalizer settings is performed gradually in order to minimize an ability of a user to perceive the at least one change;
- and
- outputting the music based at least in part on the adjusting of the one or more equalizer settings of the equalizer device.
