This paper introduces a feedback correction model based on the Kalman Filter for understanding interpersonal timing in ensemble music performance. The model is designed to capture how musicians adjust timing when musical tempo varies, while retaining …
This conference paper surveys challenges and opportunities for text entry in extended reality. It focuses on the continuing importance of physical and virtual keyboards in XR, and considers how interaction design must adapt as virtual, mixed, and …
In virtual reality, users interact with the virtual environment and are exposed to multiple sensory signals (e.g., visual, audio, tactile). Measuring to which degree signals that come from the same event are perceptually integrated is fundamental in …
Interpersonal timing is important for creating a cohesive music performance in small ensembles without a conductor. Wing et al. (2014) proposed that phase correction underlies ensemble timing in classical string quartets. Correction gains for the …
Recent work in note onset detection has centered on deep learning models such as recurrent neural networks (RNN), convolutional neural networks (CNN) and more recently temporal convolutional networks (TCN), which achieve high evaluation accuracies …
The ability to synchronise is a hallmark of professional music-making. Such synchronisation, without a conductor, is achievable by timing error correction, either through phase correction (Wing et al., 2014) or period correction (by adjusting the …
We present a plug-in for music production software (i.e., digital audio workstations) that simulates musicians synchronizing to other musicians, either virtual or controlled by users. Notes of the parts controlled by users are played according to …
Detection of note onsets in string instruments is still a major challenge in music signal processing. Previously, we used the annotations of four musicians (based on the Hayden Op74 finale, normal speed, repetition 12, bar 1-49s) to define the …
This study investigated the effects of changes in leadership on microtiming patterns of different players within a string quartet. By quantising note onset positions within eighth-note metrical structure of bar-length rhythmic patterns, it is …
When musicians play in ensemble, they continuously adapt to each other to ensure that the group keeps time together. This adaptation can be captured by a linear phase correction model, representing how they adjust to one another. The Augmented …
