Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To properly find an illegal copy by embedding identification informa tion in musical sound waveform data so as not to be acoustically conspicuous, regarding an identification information embedding method for embedding identifi cation information in musical sound waveform data. SOLUTION: In this method, identification information is embedded only in a waveform part involving many noise components and well representing the features of the tone quality of a musical sound among the waveform data of a musical sound, and/or only a waveform part involving a large amplitude and well representing the features of the tone quality of a musical sound among the waveform data of the musical sound. When identification information is embedded in the waveform data of a musical sound, the degree of the deterioration of the tone quality changes, depending on where the information should be embedded in the data. A part of the waveform data involving many noise components is not conspicuous acoustically and hardly perceived at the time of sound reproduction even if identification information is embedded, and the deterioration of the tone quality is relatively small.

According to one aspect of the present invention, there is provided a method for embedding identification information in musical tone waveform data, in which a noise component in waveform data of a musical tone has a noise component. The identification information is embedded only in a large number of waveform parts that well represent the tone characteristics of the musical tone. When the identification information is embedded in the waveform data of the musical tone, the degree of deterioration of the timbre differs depending on which part of the waveform data is embedded with the identification information. Even if identification information is embedded as noise in a portion of the waveform data having a large amount of noise components, it is hardly perceived and hardly perceived at the time of reproduction, and the timbre is relatively little deteriorated. Also, since the identification information is embedded in the waveform portion that best represents the characteristics of the tone of the musical tone,
When attempting to illegally copy the waveform data, it is unlikely that this characteristic portion will be removed and the waveform data will be illegally copied. Therefore, if the waveform data is illegally copied based on the identification information embedded in the waveform data. It is possible to identify whether or not it is.

According to another aspect of the present invention, there is provided a method of embedding identification information in musical tone waveform data, wherein only the waveform portion of the waveform data of the musical tone has a large amplitude and well represents the characteristics of the timbre of the musical tone. The identification information is embedded. A portion having a large amplitude (volume) in the waveform data has a masking effect that makes it difficult to hear a small sound when a sound having a small amplitude and a sound having a large amplitude are simultaneously heard. By using this masking effect to embed identification information as noise with a small volume in a portion with a large volume (amplitude), it is less noticeable and less perceptible at the time of reproduction, and the timbre is relatively less deteriorated. Further, as described above, since the identification information is embedded in the waveform portion that best represents the characteristics of the tone color of the musical tone, the identification information is always copied in an illegal copy, so that an illegal copy of the waveform data can be reliably detected. .

In FIG. 1, first, original waveform data of a musical tone (voice such as a musical instrument sound or a singing voice) is decomposed into an attack portion (rising portion) and other portions. Then, ID (identifier) information is spectrally spread and embedded in frequency spectrum components obtained by performing frequency conversion (Fourier transform or discrete cosine transform, etc.) on the waveform data of the attack portion, and then the frequency spectrum components are subjected to inverse frequency transform (reverse frequency transform). Then, the waveform data of the attack portion having the ID information is restored by performing a freeier transform or an inverse discrete cosine transform. The waveform data of the attack portion having the ID information and the waveform data of the portion other than the previously separated attack portion are combined to restore the tone waveform data having the ID information.

When embedding the ID information in the waveform data of the musical tone, the degree of deterioration of the timbre differs depending on in which part of the waveform data the ID information is embedded. Since the attack part of the waveform data has a larger noise component and a larger amplitude than other parts, even if the ID information is embedded, it is hardly perceptible and hard to perceive during reproduction. That is, even if the ID information is embedded as noise in a portion with many noise components,
Hard to perceive. Also, the ID with the large amplitude (volume)
When the information is embedded, it is possible to use the fact that when listening to a sound with a small amplitude and a large sound at the same time, a masking effect that a small sound is hard to hear is generated. Even if embedded, it becomes difficult to perceive. Therefore, even if the ID information is embedded in the attack portion of the waveform data of the musical tone, the deterioration of the timbre is relatively small.

In addition, since the attack portion is the portion that best represents the characteristics of the tone of the musical tone, when attempting to copy the waveform data illegally, the attack portion is removed and the waveform data is illegally copied. Copying is not conceivable, and therefore, the identification information embedded in the waveform data makes it possible to reliably determine whether the waveform data has been illegally copied or not. Note that the method of extracting the ID information may be the same method as that described in the section of the related art.

In implementing the present invention, various modifications are possible. In the above embodiment, the identification information is embedded in the attack part of the musical sound. This is because the attack portion is most preferable because it satisfies all the conditions that the attack portion is noisy and has a large amplitude and is a characteristic portion of the tone color of a musical tone. However, the present invention is not limited to this, only in the characteristic part of the tone of the musical tone and the waveform part with much noise, or only in the characteristic part of the tone of the musical tone and the waveform part with a large amplitude, Identification information may be embedded.

In the above-described embodiment, the original waveform data is separated into an attack part and other parts, and then the identification information is embedded in the attack part. A method of creating waveform data in which identification information is embedded may be used. In the case of an electronic musical instrument in which a musical sound is composed of two or more partial constituent sounds (an attack part and other parts in this case), and these are synthesized to finally form one musical sound, the waveform data is Since it is originally divided into an attack part and other parts, a step of separating the attack part is unnecessary when embedding the identification information.
