You've been there.  On thousands of streaming Web-music channels, and countless mobile devices, almost every song-to-song transition is served up to the listener with annoying SILENCE GAPS between songs:

(5 to 10 seconds)

And the automatic mixing results of so-called DSP CROSS FADE methods implemented by several major vendors, and even by some prominent Web-streamers, are very sloppy.  Listeners hear a series of premature fade OUTs, followed by unwanted fade INs.  Here is how the typical CROSS FADE solution presents its brand of 'gapless' transitions:

Erratic audio level Cross Fades, like the "dip 'n clip" effect above, do not reproduce music the way the recording artist designed it; and for that reason, it's not how people expect to hear their favorite songs.   (But happily, Codentity's patented music-flow control methods overcome the limitations of existing technology from other companies.  See examples 3 and 4 below.)

SONG B start normal

Or for music track pairings where, for example, Song A resolves abruptly (i.e., cold), CTT starts Song B at its normal audio level, and it starts B at the moment Song A concludes—producing the expected tightly ADJOINED transition.

As you can see by the diagram examples above, Codentity methodology produces transitions WITHOUT silence gaps and WITH expected audio levels, while other technologies deliver disruptive silence gaps or strange audio level fluctuations—which are both an indication of poor song boundary calculation.

Codentity Delivers An Enhanced Listening Experience

Codentity Transition Technology is an evolutionary improvement that provides a more desirable listening experience.  CTT eliminates the disruption of glaring silence gaps.  CTT ends the problem of audio level disparities like premature fade OUTS and unwanted fade INS.  CTT stops the practice of arbitrary content deletions used by other designs that result to trimming material in order to create a simulated blending effect.

And Codentity Transition Technology, if incorporated into the music-flow processing for Web-streamers (think Spotify®, Pandora®, Google®, and others), can reduce listener fatigue; thereby leading to longer TSL (time spent listening) due to improved consumer satisfaction.  For streamers, this could mean better results for ad sales objectives and subscription renewals.

Or if adapted to enhance and smooth music sequencing transitions on smartphone handsets or tablet devices (think Samsung®, Sony®, Apple®, Microsoft®, and others), CTT can give licensees the immediate advantage of a desirable technical distinction (i.e., a feature "selling point"); this can lead to improved sales and a renewed loyalty to the implementing platform.
