Patent attributes
A device including: first and second input units providing first and second input signals of first and second audio tracks, a decomposition unit to decompose the first input audio signal to obtain decomposed signals, a playback unit to start playback of a first output signal obtained from recombining at least first and second decomposed signals at first and second volume levels, respectively, and a transition unit for performing a transition between playback of the first output signal and playback of a second output signal obtained from the second input signal. The transition unit is adapted for reducing the first/second volume levels according to first/second transition functions. The device includes an analyzing unit to analyze an audio signal to determine a song part junction between two song parts. The transition time interval of at least one of the transition functions is set such as to include the song part junction.
