METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR PROVIDING AN INTERFACE TO A PROCESSING ENGINE THAT UTILIZES INTELLIGENT AUDIO MIXING TECHNIQUES
First Claim
1. A method for providing an interface to a processing engine that utilizes intelligent audio mixing techniques, comprising:
- triggering by an event a request to change a perceptual location of an audio source within an audio mixture from a current perceptual location relative to a listener to a new perceptual location relative to the listener, wherein the audio mixture comprises at least two audio sources;
generating one or more control signals that are configured to cause the processing engine to change the perceptual location of the audio source from the current perceptual location to the new perceptual location via separate foreground processing and background processing; and
providing the one or more control signals to the processing engine.

Abstract
A method for providing an interface to a processing engine that utilizes intelligent audio mixing techniques may include receiving a request to change a perceptual location of an audio source within an audio mixture from a current perceptual location relative to a listener to a new perceptual location relative to the listener. The audio mixture may include at least two audio sources. The method may also include generating one or more control signals that are configured to cause the processing engine to change the perceptual location of the audio source from the current perceptual location to the new perceptual location via separate foreground processing and background processing. The method may also include providing the one or more control signals to the processing engine.

10. An apparatus for providing an interface to a processing engine that utilizes intelligent audio mixing techniques, comprising:
-
a processor; memory in electronic communication with the processor; instructions stored in the memory, the instructions being executable to; trigger by an event a request to change a perceptual location of an audio source within an audio mixture from a current perceptual location relative to a listener to a new perceptual location relative to the listener, wherein the audio mixture comprises at least two audio sources; generate one or more control signals that are configured to cause the processing engine to change the perceptual location of the audio source from the current perceptual location to the new perceptual location via separate foreground processing and background processing; and provide the one or more control signals to the processing engine. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18)

19. A computer-readable medium comprising instructions providing an interface to a processing engine that utilizes audio mixing techniques on a mobile device, which when executed by a processor causes the processor to
trigger by an event a request to change a perceptual location of an audio source within an audio mixture from a current perceptual location relative to a listener to a new perceptual location relative to the listener, wherein the audio mixture comprises at least two audio sources; -
generate one or more control signals that are configured to cause the processing engine to change the perceptual location of the audio source from the current perceptual location to the new perceptual location via separate foreground processing and background processing; and provide the one or more control signals to the processing engine. - View Dependent Claims (20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27)
