PERCEPTUAL BASS EXTENSION WITH LOUDNESS MANAGEMENT AND ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE (AI) - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17689744 titled 'PERCEPTUAL BASS EXTENSION WITH LOUDNESS MANAGEMENT AND ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE (AI)

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a computer-implemented method for implementing a customizable compressor for sidechain processing associated with a loudspeaker. Machine learning is used to automatically adjust the parameters of the sidechain processing. The method also involves extracting channels, including a low-frequency effects (LFE) channel, for nonlinear signal synthesis. The LFE sidechain channel is mixed into a non-LFE sidechain using a proportional power-sum-based approach, while ensuring the LFE sidechain channel remains within a specified threshold of being level.

  • Computer-implemented method for customizable compressor for sidechain processing
  • Machine learning used to automatically tune sidechain processing parameters
  • Extraction of channels, including low-frequency effects (LFE) channel, for nonlinear signal synthesis
  • Proportional power-sum-based mix-in of LFE sidechain channel into non-LFE sidechain
  • Maintaining LFE sidechain channel within specified level threshold

Potential Applications

  • Audio processing and compression in loudspeaker systems
  • Sound engineering and production in music and film industries
  • Home theater systems and audio equipment

Problems Solved

  • Manual tuning of sidechain processing parameters can be time-consuming and subjective
  • Nonlinear signal synthesis can introduce distortion and imbalance without proper control
  • Maintaining the level of the LFE sidechain channel within a specified threshold can be challenging

Benefits

  • Customizable compressor allows for tailored sidechain processing in loudspeaker systems
  • Machine learning automates parameter tuning, saving time and improving accuracy
  • Proportional power-sum-based mix-in ensures balanced and controlled nonlinear signal synthesis
  • Maintaining LFE sidechain channel within specified level threshold improves audio quality and avoids distortion.


Original Abstract Submitted

One embodiment provides a computer-implemented method that includes implementing a customizable compressor for at least one sidechain processing associated with a loudspeaker. Machine learning is applied to automatically tune one or more parameters of the at least one sidechain processing. One or more channels are extracted, including a low-frequency effects (LFE) channel, for nonlinear signal synthesis. A proportional power-sum-based mix-in of an LFE sidechain channel is applied into a non-LFE sidechain. The LFE sidechain channel is maintained within a specified threshold of being level, before and after nonlinear signal synthesis.
