Abstract (en)

A method for humanizing a music sequence (S), the music sequence (S) comprising a multitude of sounds (s 1 , ..., s n ) occurring on times (t 1 , ...,t n ), comprises the steps - generating, for each time (t i ) a random offset (o i ), - adding the random offset (o i ) to the time (t i ) in order to obtain a modified time (t i + o i ); and - outputting a humanized music sequence (S') wherein each sound (s i ) occurs on the modified time (t i + o i ). According to the invention, the power spectral density of the random offsets has the form wherein 0< ± < 2.
