Abstract: Systems, devices, and methods for motion-based output of audio content are provided. The motion-based output of audio content may include synchronizing a tempo and a phase of audio content being output with a cadence and a phase of a cyclic movement of a user of an electronic device. The motion-based output can be performed by a system-level process such that synchronizations to motion cadence and phase can be provided for local audio content and/or audio content from any of various content streaming sources. The motion-based output can also account for algorithmic and/or transmission latencies, to output beats of the audio content in sync with user footfalls, including in implementations in which wireless headphones or earbuds are used. Tempo and phase matching can also be provided across a delay or interval in which there is no output of audio content, such as during the gap between adjacent songs in a playlist.

Abstract: Implementations of the subject technology provide systems and methods for providing distributed audio processing for audio devices. Distributed audio processing may include encoding signals from multiple microphones and/or sensors, such as at a headphone or an earbud, and decoding and processing the signals on host, source, or companion device. Distributed audio processing may also include deactivating one or more digital signal processors and/or neural networks based on an operational mode of an audio device or based on a processing capability of a companion device.

Abstract: Aspects of the subject technology provide for automatic adaptive noise cancellation, which may be provided with a substantially flat frequency response. In one or more implementations, a noise cancellation signal is combined with a pass-through audio signal with a ratio that is controlled based on a mixing curve. The mixing curve may be one of multiple mixing curves that are defined for multiple respective operational states of an electronic device.

Abstract: Systems, devices, and methods for voice over music recording are provided. A person may sing along with music being output into the physical environment of the person by a loudspeaker. One or more microphones may be used to record both the voice of the person singing, and the music output by the speaker. An electronic device may cancel the portion of the microphone signals containing the music output by the speaker, and remix the voice of the person with digital audio content corresponding to the music.
