Abstract

See full text

A method for playing a multipart data file on an interactive karaoke system includes receiving a multipart data file from a source. This multipart data file includes an interactive virtual instrument object and a global accompaniment object. The global accompaniment object includes at least a first synthesizer control file and at least a first sound recording file. This method generates at least one virtual instrument required to process the multipart data file and prompts the user of at least one virtual instrument to provide an input stimuli to the virtual instrument input device associated with that virtual instrument. This generates a performance for that virtual instrument. The method then combines at least one performance with information contained in the global accompaniment object to generate a hybrid performance signal. The virtual instrument is a software object that maps the input stimuli provided by the user to specific notes specified in the interactive virtual instrument object.
