Music editing primarily entails the modification of instrument tracks or remixing in the whole, which offers a novel reinterpretation of the original piece through a series of operations. These music processing methods hold immense potential across various applications but demand substantial experti…
End-to-end generation of musical audio using deep learning techniques has seen an explosion of activity recently. However, most models concentrate on generating fully mixed music in response to abstract conditioning information. In this work, we present an alternative paradigm for producing music ge…
Recent progress in music generation has been remarkably advanced by the state-of-the-art MusicLM, which comprises a hierarchy of three LMs, respectively, for semantic, coarse acoustic, and fine acoustic modelings. Yet, sampling with the MusicLM requires processing through these LMs one by one to obt…
Differentiable Wavetable Synthesis (DWTS) is a technique for neural audio synthesis which learns a dictionary of one-period waveforms i.e. wavetables, through end-to-end training. We achieve high-fidelity audio synthesis with as little as 10 to 20 wavetables and demonstrate how a data-driven diction…
This paper presents a novel supervised approach to detecting the chorus segments in popular music. Traditional approaches to this task are mostly unsupervised, with pipelines designed to target some quality that is assumed to define "chorusness," which usually means seeking the loudest or most frequ…
In this work, we propose a new solution for parallel wave generation by WaveNet. In contrast to parallel WaveNet (van Oord et al., 2018), we distill a Gaussian inverse autoregressive flow from the autoregressive WaveNet by minimizing a regularized KL divergence between their highly-peaked output di…
In supervised speech separation, deep neural networks (DNNs) are typically employed to predict an ideal time-frequency (T-F) mask in order to remove background interference. However, the performance of DNNs is frequently degraded for untrained noises and speakers. Inspired by recent research on dila…
Voice cloning is a highly desired feature for personalized speech interfaces. We introduce a neural voice cloning system that learns to synthesize a person's voice from only a few audio samples. We study two approaches: speaker adaptation and speaker encoding. Speaker adaptation is based on fine-tun…
