A method for analyzing media assets such as video and audio files. The method includes providing access to all the frames of a digital media asset. The method includes, with a microprocessor, running a raw analyzer modules to analyze the asset frames to produce sets of raw analyzer result data that are stored in a data cache in a file associated with the asset. The sets of raw analyzer results are linked to the raw analyzer modules with unique identifiers. The digital media asset is played for the raw analyzer modules, which concurrently analyze the temporally-related frames. The raw analyzer results are stored as data tracks that include metadata for the asset such as immutable parameters including histograms. The method includes using a feature algorithm module to generate an analysis result, such as face identification, for the digital media asset based on the raw analyzer results accessed by the identifiers.

Framework for combining content intelligence modules

A digital medium environment includes an audio processing application that generates a user interface for editing audio data. Sound effects are displayed each with a single adjuster according to an ordered workflow based on a mix type of an audio clip, such as music, dialogue, etc. Adjustment of a single adjuster for a sound effect causes adjustment of multiple parameters of an effects processor underlying the sound effect. Furthermore, effects processors corresponding to selected sound effects are placed in an effects rack in a correct order, rather than in an order in which the sound effects are selected, thus correcting user mistakes. The techniques described herein allow users of varied skill levels to work on a same project, and provide a dynamic interface suitable to the user's skill level that also facilitates comparative testing with an audio effect disabled and subsequently enabled without dropouts in the rendered audio.
