Musical audio samples generated from joint text embeddings

The field of machine learning has benefited from the appearance of diffusion-based generative models for images and audio. While text-to-image models have become increasingly prevalent, text-to-audio generative models are currently an active area of research. We present work on generating short samples of musical instrument sounds generated by a model which was conditioned on text descriptions and the file structure labels of large sample libraries. Preliminary findings indicate that generation of wide-spectrum sounds such as percussion are not difficult, while the generation of harmonic musical sounds presents challenges for audio diffusion models.
