Abstract:
1. A music processing method utilizing at least a computer processor to implements steps comprising: determining code values according to a volume transition in every certain period starting from a plurality of coding start positions on a time axis in music data wherein each of the code values indicates whether an average volume in a certain period is increased or decreased from an average volume of a previous period; determining each of the plurality of coding start positions by acquiring a window position where an average volume in a window width on the time axis in the music data excesses an average volume of an entire or a part of the music data for the first time, wherein each of the coding start positions is determined using a different window width; generating a plurality of characteristic patterns of the music data, each indicating a characteristic of the volume transition of the music data, using a series of the code values determined over plural periods; and correcting an offset of the music data or metadata related to the music data based on a window position of the music data by:
