Hey HN, My cofounder and I trained an AI music generation model and after a month of testing we're launching 1.0 today. Ours is interesting because it's a latent diffusion model instead of a language model, which makes it more controllable: https://sonauto.ai/ Others do music generation by training a Vector Quantized Variational Autoencoder like Descript Audio Codec (https://github.com/descriptinc/descript-audio-codec) to turn music into tokens, then training an LLM on those tokens. Instead, we ripped the tokenization part off and replaced it with a normal…

I am excited to announce a new tool for music producers and audio enthusiasts - a music audio search engine. With just a simple description of the groove you're looking for, our semantic search engine will output the most similar audio in seconds. I used the Freesound.org API to upload over 3,000 grooves to MongoDB, and combined all the relevant data such as tags, title, description, BPM, etc. into OpenAI's Text-Davinci to generate a unique description of each sound. I then embedded these descriptions using the Ada Embeddings Model and inserted them into Pinecone DB vector database, making…

YO, I’m Ryan, lead author. I’ve been contributing open source generative audio stuff for a while now, audio reactive Comfy nodes, extended ACEstep support in Comfy, etc.. I just opened-sourced a new audio project that I've been working on for a few months and I want to tell y'all about it. WHAT IS IS DEMON: Diffusion Engine for Musical Orchestrated Noise This is StreamDiffusion but with audio instead of images, and ACEStep 1.5 instead of Stable Diffusion. It’s responsive enough that you can play it like an instrument, and remix in near real-time. I also distilled the ACEStep VAE: it’s faster…

I've created a diffusion-based neural net generative assistant that makes creating new melodies much easier, even for non-musicians like me. These are meant to be just the catchy "hook" parts of songs, so more work is required to make them into full songs, but this is already handled well by existing products (e.g. there are plugins that can suggest a few possible chord progressions based on the melody and there is even good singing software that I used without any tweaks to make the “voice” playlist: Synthesizer V Studio). This side project turned out to be quite challenging because of how…
