Methods for spectral analysis of audio signals and their graphical display are widespread. However, assessing music and audio in the visual domain involves a number of challenges in the translation between auditory images into mental or symbolically represented concepts. This paper presents a spectral analysis method that exists entirely in the auditory domain, and results in an auditory presentation of a spectrum. It aims to strip a segment of audio signal of its temporal content, resulting in a quasi-stationary signal that possesses a similar spectrum to the original signal. The method is extended and applied for the purpose of music summarisation. © 2009 International Society for Music Information Retrieval.
