Part looper, part generator, and an entirely new AI instrument! itโs a bit of a lift to get up and running at first, but quite fun once you get it going. this walkthrough is super helpful!
Made a walkthrough vid for Magenta RealTime โAudio Injectionโ! The notebook takes ~10m to spin up, but totally worth it for the surreal experience ๐ค๐ป๐งโ๏ธ

Insightful passage from @FranklinFoer for @TheAtlantic. It does feel like the pursuit of science to promote human understanding is falling away to the promotion of individuals and their fortunes. "Not so long ago, the astronomer Carl Sagan shaped how Americans thought about

Iโm happy to have donated my voice to this incredible new open model and instrument! It is a new, active, approach to spawning music, made for real time jamming and exploration. More like a sampler than a jukebox, you can fine tune it on your own sounds and soon run it locally!
We've worked with @hollyherndon and @matdryhurst to finetune Magenta RT on Holly's vocals and the result is a really cool model that keeps the base model's ability to respond to wide-ranging controls while infusing outputs with the unique sonic qualities of the finetuning domain
