Synthesis and editing of multi-instrument audio mixtures using scalar-quantised latents with MIDI Span conditioning

Sungkyun Chang, Keshav Bhandari, Simon Dixon +1

Music creation often involves iterative refinement, changing selected musical details while retaining the rest. To support such refinement, we introduce SpanSynth-Edit, a flow-matc…

A pairwise approach to simultaneous onset/offset detection for singing voice using correntropy

Sungkyun Chang, Kyogu Lee

In this paper, we propose a novelmethod to search for precise locations of paired note onset and offset in a singing voice signal. In comparison with the existing onset detection a…
