Hmm, idea... suppose you ran tempo/beat detection on some music, and then took its 1D waveform and chopped it up and arranged it in a virtual 2D space, lining up similar sections (e.g. choruses would lie side by side). Could you then gainfully compress the result with a 2D compression algorithm?
- TylerE 10y agoNo, because things aren't gonna live up that nice.
- andai 10y agoI had this idea a while ago and later discovered that the MOD file format beat me by a few decades :) Also, today I stopped halfway through importing a FLAC of repetitive electronic music into Audacity, and I was surprised to discover that there was almost no repetition (it would play one bar then skip ahead over the identical parts) Edit: Whoops, totally wrong! Turns out I was loading a half-torrented file and forgot that torrents don't download in order!
