Abstract
Voice command type entry used as a basis for applying “audio effects” (see definition herein), “sound effects” (see definition herein) and/or audio edits (see definition herein) to a sound signal. This may be done so that the various types of instructed audio processing evoke, in typical listeners, a desired sentiment or mood. Artificial intelligence may be used to accomplish this objective.
Claims20
A computer implemented method (CIM) comprising:
- receiving, via a first computer, an input data set that includes audio data for an untreated audio track and an identification of a sentiment that is to be evoked when a user listens to the audio track;
- applying a first artificial intelligence algorithm stored in the first computer to the identification of the sentiment of the input data set to determine a set of audio effect(s) to be applied to the untreated audio track to obtain a treated audio track that tends to evoke the sentiment;
- applying, via sound processing performed by the first computer, the set of audio effect(s) to the untreated audio track to obtain the treated audio track that tends to evoke the sentiment;
- and
- presenting, via one or more audio speakers communicatively connected to the first computer, the treated audio track as sound to at least a first user.

A computer program product (CPP) comprising:
- one or more computer-readable storage media;
- and
- program instructions stored on the one or more computer-readable storage media to perform operations comprising:
- receiving an input data set that includes audio data for an untreated audio track and an identification of a sentiment that is to be evoked when a user listens to the audio track;
- applying a first artificial intelligence algorithm to the identification of the sentiment of the input data set to determine a set of audio effect(s) to be applied to the untreated audio track to obtain a treated audio track that tends to evoke the sentiment;
- applying, via sound processing, the set of audio effect(s) to the untreated audio track to obtain the treated audio track that tends to evoke the sentiment;
- and
- presenting, via one or more audio speakers communicatively connected to a computer hosting the first artificial intelligence algorithm, the treated audio track as sound to at least a first user.
5 more elements
A computer system (CS) comprising:
- a processor set;
- one or more computer-readable storage media;
- one or more audio speakers communicatively connected to the processor set;
- and
- program instructions stored on the one or more computer-readable storage media to cause the processor set to perform operations comprising:
- receiving an input data set that includes audio data for an untreated audio track and an identification of a sentiment that is to be evoked when a user listens to the audio track;
- applying a first artificial intelligence algorithm to the identification of the sentiment of the input data set to determine a set of audio effect(s) to be applied to the untreated audio track to obtain a treated audio track that tends to evoke the sentiment;
- applying, via sound processing, the set of audio effect(s) to the untreated audio track to obtain the treated audio track that tends to evoke the sentiment;
- and
- presenting, via the one or more audio speakers, the treated audio track as sound to at least a first user.
