A Parametric Model for Generative Audio Synthesis

Krishna Subramani & Alexandre D'Hooge & Preeti Rao

This notebook demonstrates the latent space we obtained and sounds we synthesized from the network.

Here is an example of the 2-dimensional latent space we obtained when training on brass and organ sounds from NSynth.

Note: All the sounds are sustained sounds both when we trained and sampled from the network.

CAUTION: Some of the sounds can be loud, adjust volume accordingly!

First experiment:

We play examples of sounds sampled from each cluster of the latent space and we also play similar sounds from the training set to compare them.

Brass sound from the training set

Organ sound from the training set
