The paper introduces MixAgent, an agentic pipeline for music post‑production that emulates audio engineers’ workflow to create interpretable and editable mixing plans guided by a reference song. It employs a grouping agent to cluster related tracks, a planning agent to select and order audio effects, and a detector‑critic pair to refine the mix by identifying needed corrections and proposing parameter adjustments. The authors also present MixCritic, a dataset of 45,657 repair critiques, and demonstrate that supervised fine‑tuning followed by preference optimization improves mix quality, achieving a 19% error reduction on MedleyDB and outperforming several large language models in human listening tests.
arXiv:2606. 01686v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: As generative platforms such as Suno and Udio reach human-grade audio quality, the scope of AI's utility has expanded across the entire music production workflow.
As generative platforms such as Suno and Udio reach human-grade audio quality, the scope of AI's utility has expanded across the entire music production workflow. Beyond simple track generation, these advancements have catalyzed the adoption of AI-driven methodologies in diverse forms.
arXiv:2608. 07285v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: AI-generated music is increasingly used at the stem level, with producers integrating synthetic drums, basslines, or vocals alongside human-performed instruments.
MixJudge is a language‑queryable audio critic trained on a curriculum of 11 vocal‑mix issues across multiple severity levels. It can retrieve specific mixing problems, differentiate opposite issues, and rank their severity. When presented with processing options, MixJudge tends to select versions acoustically closer to a held‑out professional mix, showing that explicit mixing judgment can aid downstream mixing decisions.
Neural music editing requires a system to perform a requested change while preserving the musical content that should remain unchanged. Existing evaluations often lack a paired target edit, making the...
arXiv:2608. 04378v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Collaborative music agents need internal representations rich enough to support both understanding and generation, yet flexible enough for a workflow where the human retains agency.
arXiv:2508.03448v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Music recordings often suffer from audio quality issues such as excessive reverberation, distortion, clipping, tonal imbalances, and a narrow...
arXiv:2608. 14916v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: AI-generated music detectors are commonly evaluated against original songs, but real-world uploads are often remixed, re-encoded, pitch-shifted, or otherwise edited.
Spot, Separate, and Enhance (SSE) is the first multimodal, user‑guided generative model for audio remixing and enhancement. It rebalances audio, removes unwanted sources, and reduces reverberation in video content, guided by both video and textual descriptions. The authors introduce the DegradedMix dataset, built on MuddyMix, and use generative‑model evaluation metrics to demonstrate SSE’s superior controllability and remixing quality compared to existing baselines.
