• Abstract summary: We propose enhancing control of multi-instrument synthesis by conditioning a generative model on a specific performance and recording environment. Performance conditioning is a tool indicating the generative model to synthesize music with style and timbre of specific instruments taken from specific performances. Our prototype is evaluated using uncurated performances with diverse instrumentation and state-of-the-art FAD realism scores.

• Abstract: Generating multi-instrument music from symbolic music representations is an important task in Music Information Retrieval (MIR). A central but still largely unsolved problem in this context is musically and acoustically informed control in the generation process. As the main contribution of this work, we propose enhancing control of multi-instrument synthesis by conditioning a generative model on a specific performance and recording environment, thus allowing for better guidance of timbre and style. Building on state-of-the-art diffusion-based music generative models, we introduce performance conditioning - a simple tool indicating the generative model to synthesize music with style and timbre of specific instruments taken from specific performances. Our prototype is evaluated using uncurated performances with diverse instrumentation and achieves state-of-the-art FAD realism scores while allowing novel timbre and style control.

  We are inspired by how musicians compose music not just from a movie script, but also through visualizations. We propose MeLFusion, a model that can effectively use cues from a textual description and the corresponding image to synthesize music. Our exhaustive experimental evaluation suggests that adding visual information to the music synthesis pipeline significantly improves the quality of generated music.

  Musical expression requires control of both what notes are played, and how they are performed. We introduce MIDI-DDSP, a hierarchical model of musical instruments that enables both realistic neural audio synthesis and detailed user control. We demonstrate that this hierarchy can reconstruct high-fidelity audio, accurately predict performance attributes for a note sequence, independently manipulate the attributes of a given performance, and as a complete system, generate realistic audio from a novel note sequence.
