Abstract
Some embodiments of the invention are directed to an audio production system which is more portable, less expensive, faster to set up, and simpler and easier to use than conventional audio production tools. An audio production system implemented in accordance with some embodiments of the invention may therefore be more accessible to the typical user, and easier and more enjoyable to use, than conventional audio production tools.
Claims38
A method for use in relation to an audio controller comprising at least one processor, at least one antenna and memory, the method comprising acts of:
- (A) receiving, by the audio controller, audio input;
- (B) generating, by the audio controller using the at least one processor, first and second data from the audio input, the first data being usable to create a visual representation of the audio input, the second data comprising a digital representation of the audio input;
- (C) during a first time period:
- transmitting, by the audio controller using the at least one antenna, the first data, via at least one wireless network, to a device;
- and
- storing, by the audio controller, the second data in memory;
- and
- (D) during a second time period following the first time period, transmitting, by the audio controller using the at least one antenna, the second data, via the at least one wireless network, to the device;
- wherein:
- the audio input comprises first and second portions, received sequentially by the audio controller;
- the act (C) comprises transmitting the first data generated using the first and second portions to the device, and storing the second data generated using the first and second portions to memory, during the first time period;
- and
- the act (D) comprises transmitting the second data generated using the first and second portions to the device during the second time period following the first time period.

- (D) during a second time period following the first time period, transmitting, by the audio controller using the at least one antenna, the second data, via the at least one wireless network, to the device;
- wherein:
- the audio controller comprises a user interface;
- the second time period commences upon a determination by the audio controller that a predetermined input has been received via the user interface;
- and
- the predetermined input indicates that the audio controller is to stop recording audio input.
10 more elements
An audio controller, comprising:
- at least one antenna;
- at least one computer-readable storage medium having instructions encoded thereon;
- and
- at least one computer processor, operatively coupled to the at least one antenna, the at least one computer processor being programmed via the instructions to:
- receive audio input;
- generate first and second data from the audio input, the first data being usable to create a visual representation of the audio input, the second data comprising a digital representation of the audio input;
- during a first time period:
- transmit the first data, via at least one wireless network, to a device;
- and
- store the second data in the at least one computer-readable storage medium;
- and
- during a second time period following the first time period, transmit, using the at least one antenna, the second data, via the at least one wireless network, to the device;
- wherein:
- the audio input comprises first and second portions, received sequentially by the audio controller;
- the at least one computer processor is programmed via the instructions to, during the first time period, transmit the first data generated using the first and second portions to the device, and store the second data generated using the first and second portions to the at least one computer-readable storage medium;
- and
- the at least one computer processor is programmed via the instructions to, during the second time period, transmit the second data generated using the first and second portions to the device.
