Abstract:
1. A machine, comprising: circuitry for accepting input for a designation of a reference designator associated with a sound of interest in an audio data stream; circuitry for accepting input for a designation of a beginning demarcation designator associated with a beginning of a presence in the audio data stream of the sound of interest designated by the reference designator; circuitry for accepting input for a designation of an ending demarcation designator associated with an ending of the presence in the audio data stream of the sound of interest designated by the reference designator; circuitry for accepting input for retaining at a high resolution a portion of the audio data stream associated with the presence of the sound of interest, the portion for retaining at a high resolution beginning at the beginning demarcation designator and ending at the ending demarcation designator; and circuitry for retaining at the high resolution the portion of the audio data stream associated with the presence of the sound of interest, the retaining at the high resolution relative to retention of another portion of the audio data stream not associated with the presence of the sound of interest and designated for retention at a resolution lower than the high resolution.
