Systems and methods for detecting musical features in audio content
First Claim
1. A system for identifying musical features in digital audio content, comprising:
- one or more physical computer processors configured by computer readable instructions to;
obtain a digital audio file, the digital audio file including information representing audio content having a duration and sound frequencies associated with one or more moments in the audio content;
identify sound frequencies associated with a first moment and a second moment in the duration of the audio content;
identify one or more frequency characteristics associated with the first moment based on one or more of the sound frequencies associated with the first moment and the second moment;
identify one or more musical features associated with the first moment based on the one or more identified frequency characteristics associated with the first moment;
identify a transition in the audio content from a first part to a second part, the transition identified at a third moment in the duration of the audio content; and
adjust the identification of the transition from the third moment to a different moment in the duration of the audio content based on at least one of the one or more identified musical features.

Abstract
Systems and methods for identifying musical features in audio content are presented. Audio content information may be obtained from a digital audio file, the information providing a duration for playback of the audio content and a representation of sound frequencies associated with various moments throughout the duration of the audio content. Sound frequencies associated with one or more of the moments throughout the duration of the audio content may be identified, and characteristics or patterns of the identified sound frequencies may be recognized as being indicative of one or more musical features (e.g., parts, phrases, hits, bars, onbeats, beats, quavers, semiquavers, etc.). Some implementations of the present technology define display objects for display on a digital display, the display objects provided with visual features in an arrangement that distinguishes one musical feature from another across the duration of the audio content.
