  • Patent number: 9460697
    Abstract: A system and method are provided for mixing song data based on measure groupings. A player or program may recognize measure groupings in a song through identifying cuepoints. The player or program may use the cuepoints and/or other identifiers of measure groupings to generate a transition between the song and other songs. Parts of one or both songs may be time-stretched, or frames may be added or deleted, such that the beats in both songs are substantially aligned during the transition. The system and method may also involve altering the sequence of frames in one or both of the songs, so that the transition may have various sonic qualities as desired by a user. A choice of transition modes may be provided via a user interface that allow the user some control over when and how transitions between songs are executed.

  • Patent number: 9111519
    Abstract: A system and method are provided for generating cuepoints for mixing song data. One or more people may listen to a song and identify measure groupings within the song. The one or more people might generate markings corresponding to these measure groupings and submit the markings to a cuepoint generation system. The markings may then be reconciled into cuepoints that may be used for mixing the song with other song data. In some embodiments, the cuepoints may be adjusted based on characteristics of the particular songs that are to be mixed together.
