FM Tone Transfer Demo

Here I present a series of examples generated with the Tone Transfer App. The original audio examples are monophonic excerpts from different sources, which are converted using four different models, namely "DX E. Piano", "Strings", "OB8 Brass" and "Marimba!". More models are available in the Colab Notebook.

Using the Frequency Ratio Controls

Since the neural net predics synthesis parameters, users can modify the outcome of the process by changing the FM synth configuration. Here I present a couple of examples showing the effects of the provided controls.



Standard Guitar to FM Strings

Change OSC1=0.5, OSC=1.02

Change OSC1=1.02, OSC=0.5

Change OSC1=0.5, OSC2=1.02, OSC5=14.9

Standard Voice to OB8 Brass

Change OSC2=2.0

Change OSC2=2.0, OSC3=7.6

Change OSC2=2.0, OSC3=7.6, OSC5=4.1
