Abstract
A digital audio processing system determines characteristics of an electronic presentation to generate a musical composition that is unique to the electronic presentation by adjoining digital audio stems in accordance with the characteristics of the electronic presentation. Embodiments enable a user to define an order for displaying images and a level of importance of the images with respect to one another. For example, the user may designate a specific one of the multiple images as a 'highlight image' for emphasizing during the electronic presentation. Then, the system may arrange numerous musical segments adjacent to one another so that the intensity (e.g., energy level) of a resulting musical composition coincides with key events (e.g., a highlight image being shown) of the particular electronic presentation. The intensity of a particular musical segment may indicate a relative note structure density as compared to other musical segments that are defined within the stem data.
