TUTTI: Toward generalizable audio-to-score transcription via fully synthesized data

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.

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

SpanSynth-Edit is a flow‑matching model that enables MIDI‑guided synthesis and editing of multi‑instrument audio mixtures using low‑frame‑rate scalar‑quantised latents. It encodes instrument‑labelled note lifecycles as unordered event sets, pools them into a conditioning vector per audio‑latent frame, and uses contextual audio for instrument‑specific timbre guidance. The model supports editing by resynthesising target regions from revised MIDI and demonstrates competitive performance on single‑ and multi‑instrument benchmarks, including within‑frame onset control.
