  • Process for encoding audio from an analog medium into a compressed digital format using attribute information and silence detection
    Patent number: 6560577
    Abstract: The present invention discloses method and system of encoding audio information (e.g., music, speech, etc.) from an analog medium (e.g., vinyl recordings, cassette tapes, etc.) into a compressed, track-oriented, digital format using attribute information and silence detection. The invention generates an analog audio signal by reproducing the audio information recorded on the analog medium, which is recorded on a plurality of discrete analog tracks. The analog audio signal is then sampled to generate a digital audio file (i.e., WAV file). The digital audio file is filtered to correct defects and then separated into a plurality of discrete digital audio tracks. Attribute information, such as track length, is accessed and confirmed by silence detection techniques in order to provide separation.
