The world of classical music and machine learning just got a powerful new tool: The Spheres dataset. This isn’t just another collection of recordings; it’s a meticulously crafted resource designed to push the boundaries of music information retrieval
In the rapidly evolving landscape of AI-generated audio, the line between genuine and fabricated sound is blurring at an alarming rate. This technological advancement, while impressive, brings with it a host of security challenges, from misinformatio
In the rapidly evolving world of artificial intelligence, the quest for more efficient and scalable models is never-ending. A recent breakthrough in this area comes from a team of researchers who have developed a novel framework called AnyExperts. Th
In the world of emotion recognition technology, the dream has always been to create systems that can seamlessly integrate into our daily lives, understanding and responding to our emotional states in real-time. However, the reality has often fallen s
Depression is a widespread mental health disorder, and recent advancements in AI are offering new ways to detect and assess it. Researchers have been leveraging multi-modal data—such as speech, video, and transcripts—to develop AI-assisted depression
The pro audio world has long grappled with a fundamental tension: the warmth and immediacy of analog consoles versus the flexibility and recallability of digital systems. This week, Solid State Logic’s new Oracle console shatters that divide, offering a fully analog signal path with instantaneous digital recall—a breakthrough that could redefine how top-tier studios and live sound engineers work.
A groundbreaking 24-band dynamics processor, Bark24 Dyn, has just been released by FSK Audio in collaboration with Mark Jeffery, the original software engineer behind Pro Tools. This innovative plugin marks a significant departure from traditional EQs and compressors by leveraging the Bark scale—a psychoacoustic model that mirrors how humans perceive sound. Instead of forcing users to think in Hertz and decibels, Bark24 Dyn allows audio professionals to shape dynamics in musical regions such as clarity, presence, and warmth, aligning with the natural way our ears and brain process audio.
The latest update to Jamahook’s AI-powered sound-matching VST plugin, released on November 24, 2025, marks a significant leap forward in how producers interact with sample libraries and creative workflows. Unlike traditional sample browsers, Jamahook’s plugin listens to your DAW project in real-time, analyzing tempo, harmony, mood, rhythm, and more, then instantly suggests loops and sounds that harmonically and rhythmically complement your track. This isn’t just about keyword searches or manual filtering—it’s about AI understanding the musical context and delivering results that feel like they were handpicked by a seasoned collaborator.
Imagine you’ve spent countless hours perfecting an AI model to classify audio, only to find it stumbles when faced with real-world sounds. This is the challenge of domain shift, where models trained on one dataset falter when confronted with acoustic
In the ever-evolving world of voice technology, the need for efficient, on-device keyword spotting (KWS) systems is becoming increasingly important. These systems, which allow devices to recognize and respond to specific commands, are crucial for cre
