calius 0 Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 It does not matter even if you into music making this video should be watched. Ive linked this before but now its being beta tested to public for release soon. This composer tests it for the first time with a simple stereo music track of his own complex composition, it detects every single note from it and pulls it all out so you can make it replay totally different by moving the notes .. he is skeptical and then watch his reaction. Basically this tool is the equivalent of getting a flat picture being able to pull everything out of it in layers and then re arranging the picture how you want ... or sticking your hands in to a 2d picture and moving it around in 3d and putting it back how you want in 2d again. So ... basically we are getting to the point of manipulation of audio (and I guess video will be soon or already is behind the scenes) that you can take ANYTHING and re arrange it without having the original master copy/parts .. just direct from an mp3. You can then for example get a Michael Jackson track and make him sing it totally wrong and change how the bassline is played for example. Also note whats not shown is things can be muted out and then replaced or singled out and saved to put in back later. As he says in the video "you wont be able to trust what you here ever again" ... now think of the devious things you can do with audio source for say "faking something for an event" ... *cough* Or even taking this and applying to video source. Theres no way this isn't in the domain behind the scenes. I posted this to show what an amazing thing it is, and also how it can be used for other means. It does open the debate of transparency, peoples music and any stereo sound source can then be manipulated without the master source. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rocky 1,224 Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 I'm sure I posted about this a long time ago, I'm downloading the movie now, interested to see where they are at with it now... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
calius 0 Posted October 29, 2009 Author Share Posted October 29, 2009 Well the announcement was pretty huge music industry wise, but then it was late 2008 I think .. so many thought it too good to be true and it was always penned in late / fall 2009. But as of now and that link people are beta testing and just from that clip it proves how powerful it will be. Ignore the darker side of ideas .. If you have a bum note or chord arrangement in a finished master track after a studio session and you missed it and it would cost to re record, you can throw it into this package, it will scan all instruments, note perfect re show them, so you move them entirely in different ways or correct a note in various places. Pretty much a revolutionary bit of kit since they introduced "time stretch" into sampling and music back in the early 90's. Ive also noticed theres a music based sub forum not sure if it should be in that or not ... hmmm. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
