arXiv:2607. 00777v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recognizing jazz standards from audio is a challenging form of tune-level music retrieval: different performances of the same standard may vary in tempo, key, arrangement, instrumentation, improvisational content, and even whether the head melody is present.

TUTTI is a new pre‑training framework for audio‑to‑score transcription that uses a large, fully synthetic multi‑instrument dataset generated by a symbolic music model. The approach trains a standard Transformer encoder‑decoder on these synthetic audio‑score pairs, producing a stronger foundational representation than single‑instrument training. When fine‑tuned on real datasets, TUTTI surpasses prior methods, achieving state‑of‑the‑art results and demonstrating strong cross‑instrument transferability.

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.

arXiv:2607. 01297v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Most existing audio classification methods suppose that each query (testing) sample belongs to a class of support (training) samples, and misrecognize samples of unseen classes as seen classes (cannot reject samples of unseen classes).
