ListeningTest

Thank you for your time !

In this test, the goal is to evaluate the perceptual similarity between recordings of percussive musical instrument sounds and their reconstruction by two algorithms.

At first, you will play the original sound as many times as you want (labeled Original). Then, you will play the other two sounds (labeled Sound1 and Sound2) as many times as you want again, and select which one, Sound1 or Sound2, is closer to the original one. Please note that the order of appearance is random, that is, the sound labeled Sound1 does not necessarily correspond to a specific model.

Recommendations

• If there is any technical problem with one sound, select Prob.
• Absolutely use headphones. Do not use earphones or speakers.
• Verify that the sound is loud enough to hear the details properly.
• Do the test in a quiet place.
• Take the time to listen !
• Please, do not stop the sound before it finishes!
• Please, do not play audio files simultaneously !
• Before answering the test, do not hesitate to ask me any question.
