@yalishanda Hey Alex!

Thank you for creating and sharing this model! It's very interesting and I was wondering if I can ask you a few questions?

  1. Why did you go with MDN? Did it show a better performance?
  2. Have you considered using masked encoder-based archtecture? From my experience, it performs really well usually...
  3. Have you considered training on more data? E (GMD) are nice and everything but IMHO they are too small to train a well performing model.

So, if you get a minute, I wanted to invite you to check out my Discover MIDI Dataset. It has ~1M+ solo drum track MIDIs which (with included filtering) can be used for large drum track model pretraining.

Also, check out my Bidi Score where I use masked encoders to inpaint individual MIDI notes elements (i.e velocities or timings)

Last but not least I wanted to suggest giving your models more context to work with. I.e drum track + lead monophonic melody so that the model can infer velocities easier.

Anyways, thank you again for your models and the demo. Its really nice otherwise :)

I would be interested to chat about all of this if you have free time :)

Let me know.

Sincerely,

Alex.
