Conditional drum generation, 6-stem music source separation on MLX, XTTS voice cloning, and edge TTS — machine learning applied to sound.

Research Question
How far can locally trained models go in generating and deconstructing music and voice?
The audio lab spans DrumAI-Conditional (conditional drum synthesis), BSRoFormer running 6-stem separation natively on Apple Silicon, StableAudio MLX generation, and Demucs-based DrumSep experiments.
Voice work includes XTTS fine-tuning with three cloned voice profiles built from recorded clips, and the Piper ONNX pipeline for fast TTS on Raspberry Pi-class hardware.
