We want to measure musical quality and sense of pleasantness of CoDi, a musical mashup creation system, through a perceptual listening test of mashups. Musical mashups can be derived from recombinations of audio loops, which are short segments of audio.
You will be presented loop combinations to be ranked between 1 (lowest) and 10 (highest) according to the level of "pleasantness" from harmonic and rhythmic feel. You are asked to listen to a total of 10 diverse loop combinations - or vertical combinations - and 10 continuous mashups - or horizontal combinations - from the same initial solution, which means the initial 18 seconds are the same for every continuous mashup.
Each loop combination and mashup is a 3-layer mix of audio files from large datasets.
The test will take about 5-10 minutes.
Please read carefully the following instructions:
- Select only one value for each mashup that best fits your perceived musical and perceptual feeling of pleasantness
- Please take the test in a quiet environment and use headphones to listen to the mashups.
- You can listen to the mashups several times.
Thank you for your time!
