Unifying Local and Global Methods for Harmonic-Percussive Source Separation
|
Marva Whitney - Unwind Yourself This excerpt is taken from a 1968 funk recording. Although this solo record by Marva Whitney was not a chart hit, it was later sampled numerous times by diverse hip-hop artists. This intro section lasts from 00:00 to 00:15 and introduces the drum beat for 4 bars, before a characteristic baritone saxophone lick is introducend in bars 5 to 8. In comparison to KAM and Median-Filtering, our method delivers more natural sounding kick, snare and hi-hat sounds. However, the long reverb tail of the snare gets erroneously assigned to the harmonic component. Using score-information remedies this problem but also leads to more pronounced leakage of the saxophone line in the percussive component. |
