Estimating the term…
A low computational power digital audio player achieves beat continuous transitioning between digital audio pieces based on beat metadata, which can be generated via offline processing on a higher computational power computer or via background or idle processing on the digital audio player. The digital audio player produces playlists of beat matching compatible songs based on the metadata, or pick lists of songs that are beat matching compatible with a currently playing song. By facilitating selection of songs with beat matching compatible tempos based on metadata, the beat continuous transitions can be achieved without altering the beat tempo of digital audio pieces, or with simple resampling.
A method of combining audio tracks on a digital audio media player device, the method comprising:
A portable digital audio media player device featuring beat continuous transitions between consecutively played pieces of digital audio media content using low computational power, the portable digital audio media player device comprising:
A method of consecutively playing pieces of digital audio media content with beat continuous transitions on a portable digital audio media player device using low computational power, the method comprising:
