SAGE: Semantic Audio Generative Encoder
SAGE, a 105‑million‑parameter semantic audio generative encoder, compresses music waveforms into compact latent representations by distilling embeddings from a pretrained audio‑text model. It achieves a three‑way balance—high reconstruction quality, rich semantic latent structure, and fast inference—running three times faster than Stable Audio Open while matching or surpassing larger models in listening‑test quality and objective metrics. Across all nineteen latent‑semantics probing tasks, SAGE sets new state‑of‑the‑art performance both within and outside its training domain.

F3-Tokenizer: Taming Audio Autoencoder Latents for Understanding and Generation
arXiv:2606. 06357v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Continuous audio autoencoders reconstruct waveforms well but often produce latents with weak structure for understanding, while self-supervised audio encoders capture semantics but are not directly decodable.

Unified Audio Intelligence Without Regressing on Text Intelligence
Audio intelligence involves understanding, reasoning about, and generating both audio and speech. In this work, we introduce Nemotron-Labs-Audex-30B-A3B (Audex), a unified audio-text LLM built on Nemotron-Cascade-2-30B-A3B, a strong text-only MoE LLM.
