Systems and methods for portable audio synthesis
A method for remixing a music piece includes providing a music composition graphical user interface on a portable communications device. The music composition graphical user interface displays a plurality of actionable menu items. A first collection of actionable menu items is provided to the graphical user interface from an internal source. A music remixing algorithm incorporates music rules and can remix the music piece in a manner where only one musical component is remixed at a given time. A music remix database is accessible via the graphical user interface. A plurality of music remix data is organized based in part on a music style parameter. A second collection of actionable menu items is provided from the music remix database to the graphical user interface via a communications network. The first and second collection of actionable menu items displayed in a seamless manner.
1. A method for remixing a music piece in a portable communications device connected to a communications network, comprising the steps of:
providing a music composition graphical user interface on the portable communications device, wherein the music composition graphical user interface displays a plurality of actionable menu items, wherein a first collection of actionable menu items is provided to the music composition graphical user interface from an internal source located within the portable communications device;
providing a music remixing algorithm, wherein the music remixing algorithm incorporates music rules, and wherein the music remixing algorithm can remix the music piece in a manner where only one musical component is remixed at a given time;
providing a music remix database accessible via the music composition graphical user interface, wherein a plurality of music remix data is organized based in part on a music style parameter; and further wherein a second collection of actionable menu items is provided from the music remix database to the music composition graphical user interface via the communications network;
wherein the first collection of actionable menu items and the second collection of actionable menu items are displayed on the music composition graphical user interface on the portable communications device in a seamless manner.
2. The method of claim 1 wherein the second collection of actionable menu items is dynamically updated.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the music remixing algorithm is a ringtone alert tone music remixing algorithm.
4. The method of claim 1 further comprising the step of providing a payment gateway service to process billing information associated with the portable communications device.
5. The method of claim 4 wherein the payment gateway service uses a token-based billing method.
6. The method of claim 3 wherein the music remixing algorithm incorporates a chord progression adjustment.
7. The method of claim 3 wherein the music remixing algorithm is wholly executed on the portable communications device.
8. The method of claim 3 wherein the music remixing algorithm is wholly executed on a music remixing server.
9. The method of claim 3 wherein a first portion of the music remixing algorithm is executed on a centralized music remixing server.
10. The method of claim 9 wherein a second portion of the music remixing algorithm is executed on the portable communications device.
