Requirements

To install:

pip install -r requirements.txt
pip install -e .

We recommend installing in a virtual environment.

Data

We trained our checkpoints on the URMP dataset. Once downloaded, the dataset can be preprocessed using scripts/create_urmp_dataset.py. This will consolidate recordings of each instrument within the dataset and preprocess them according to the pipeline in the paper.

python scripts/create_urmp_dataset.py \
  --gin-file gin/data/urmp_4second_crepe.gin \ 
  --data-directory /path/to/urmp \
  --output-directory /path/to/output \
  --device cuda:0  # torch device string for CREPE model

Alternatively, you can supply your own dataset and use the general create_dataset.py script:

python scripts/create_dataset.py \
  --gin-file gin/data/urmp_4second_crepe.gin \ 
  --data-directory /path/to/dataset \
  --output-directory /path/to/output \
  --device cuda:0  # torch device string for CREPE model

Training

To train a model on the URMP dataset, use this command:

python scripts/train.py \
  --gin-file gin/train/train_newt.gin \
  --dataset-path /path/to/processed/urmp \
  --urmp \
  --instrument vn \  # select URMP instrument with abbreviated string
  --load-data-to-memory

Or to use a non-URMP dataset:

python scripts/train.py \
  --gin-file gin/train/train_newt.gin \
  --dataset-path /path/to/processed/data \
  --load-data-to-memory
