Perceived naturalness of spectrally distorted speech and music
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2003We determined how the perceived naturalness of music and speech (male and female talkers) signals was affected by various forms of linear filtering, some of which were intended to mimic the spectral “distortions” introduced by transducers such as microphones, loudspeakers, and earphones.

Space-induced distortion of starting transient of musical sound
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1999Musical sound can be defined as complex sound that begins with a starting transient followed by a (more or less) steady sound and ends with a decaying sound. After that, continuous movement from one frequency to the another follows. The rate of change of loudness for partial tones that are greater than a certain threshold and their relative starting ...

Distortion of Musical Signals by Means of Multiband Waveshaping
Journal of New Music Research, 2001In this work we propose a new architecture for musical distortion. WaveShaping (a sound synthesis technique from the mid-late 1970s) is used here as the basic distortion generation element. WaveShaping can easily and precisely generate upper partials from a flat-envelope pure sinusoidal signal. The extent and distribution of the overtones series can be

Music Distortion: A New Technique for Behavior Modification
The Psychological Record, 1970Distorted music (extreme “wow and flutter” plus intermittent brief interruptions) was made contingent upon disruptive rocking behavior of a blind, retarded S using an escape-avoidance design. Conditioning, extinction, re-conditioning, and intermittent reinforcement procedures demonstrate the aversiveness of music distortion.

Gender, Music, and Distortion Product Otoacoustic Emission Components
Ear & Hearing, 2013The prevalence of personal music (PM) system use with earphones is high among young adults. Although previous research has demonstrated that the majority of these adults may not be listening at levels or for durations considered dangerous, the long-term consequences of PM system use are not fully understood. In this report the relationship between self-

Distorted Music Score Recognition without Staffline Removal
2014 22nd International Conference on Pattern Recognition, 2014This paper proposes a new approach for recognizing the primitive musical symbols in distorted music scores without the staff line removal. We try to overcome two main issues. The first problem is the difficult and unreliable removal of staff lines required as a pre-processing step for most of recognition systems.

Distortion Estimation in Compressed Music Using Only Audio Fingerprints
IEEE Transactions on Audio, Speech, and Language Processing, 2008An audio fingerprint is a compact yet very robust representation of the perceptually relevant parts of an audio signal. It can be used for content-based audio identification, even when the audio is severely distorted. Audio compression changes the fingerprint slightly.

System And Methods For Recognizing Sound And Music Signals In High Noise And Distortion
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2007A method for recognizing an audio sample locates an audio file that most closely matches the audio sample from a database indexing a large set of original recordings. Each indexed audio file is represented in the database index by a set of landmark timepoints and associated fingerprints.

Changes in Distortion Product Otoacoustic Emission Components after Music Exposure
Journal of the American Academy of Audiology, 2014Background:Young adults experience some type of recreational noise exposure on a daily basis; this includes using personal music (PM) systems with earphones. In most cases, this exposure is intermittent and the short-term effects of this exposure on the auditory system are becoming better understood.Purpose:The purpose of this study was to examine the

Musical molecules: the molecular junction as an active component in audio distortion circuits
Journal of Physics: Condensed Matter, 2016Molecular junctions that have a non-linear current-voltage characteristic consistent with quantum mechanical tunneling are demonstrated as analog audio clipping elements in overdrive circuits widely used in electronic music, particularly with electric guitars.
