oh and as for time - this is several months of work, but is the culmination of several years of audio adjacent genai work

lets talk philosophy, bro

biggest unexpected unlock i would have to say is the shared mutable curves that bypass the ringbuffer drain. i wouldnt have thought of that without the throughput that preceded it

thank you kindly

Good question. First and foremost, Magenta is autoregressive, and this is not. Practical differences: THIS: - has more controls; output can be highly custom - has very fast response time for updating controls; this approaches real time - runs on consumer cards - is optimized for loops, and full songs, not continuous infinite music

MAGENTA: - can generate music forever, it plainly wins here - has fewer controls - has high parameter update latency (chunks of 2 seconds) - I did get magenta to fit on a 5090, but just barely

these autoregressive models are wild
