Models — IIL-curated set (b2048 streaming exports, 18 models)

Voice / speech

• voice_vocalset_b2048_r48000_z16.ts — Voice (VocalSet). Voice timbre trained on the VocalSet corpus — covers vocal techniques across multiple singers. Use for the canonical 'make this sound like a voice' transfer.
• voice-multi-b2048-r48000-z11.ts — Voice (Multi-speaker). Aggregated multi-speaker voice corpus. Wider speaker diversity than VocalSet — produces more 'average human' renders.
• voice_hifitts_b2048_r48000_z16.ts — Voice (HiFi-TTS). High-fidelity expressive English speech corpus. Cleaner, more articulate than the multi-speaker model.
• voice_jvs_b2048_r44100_z16.ts — Voice (JVS, Japanese). JVS Japanese multi-speaker corpus at 44.1 kHz. Use for Japanese-language sources or non-Latin phoneme structure.
• voice_vctk_b2048_r44100_z22.ts — Voice (VCTK, English). VCTK English multi-speaker corpus from CSTR Edinburgh, 44.1 kHz. High 22-dim latent — captures more speaker idiosyncrasies.

Bird / wildlife

• birds_motherbird_b2048_r48000_z16.ts — Birds (Motherbird). Bird-vocalization corpus — chirps + textural transients. The canonical 'weird' pick: produces wildly warped output for any arbitrary input.
• birds_dawnchorus_b2048_r48000_z8.ts — Birds (Dawn Chorus). Dense overlapping bird vocalizations recorded at dawn. Smaller 8-dim latent — outputs lean ensemble-textural over individual calls.
• birds_pluma_b2048_r48000_z12.ts — Birds (Pluma). Lighter, individual bird-call timbres. Mid-size 12-dim latent balances character + clarity.
• humpbacks_pondbrain_b2048_r48000_z20.ts — Humpback Whales. Humpback-whale song. Long, slow, hauntingly-deep vocal contours — pairs well with sustained input.
• marinemammals_pondbrain_b2048_r48000_z20.ts — Marine Mammals. Mixed marine-mammal vocalizations — dolphins, orcas, sea-life clicks and cries.

Instruments

• guitar_iil_b2048_r48000_z16.ts — Guitar (IIL). Acoustic / electric guitar timbre. Good demo for transferring voice or synth input into a plucked-string voice.
• organ_bach_b2048_r48000_z16.ts — Organ (Bach). Pipe-organ timbre trained on Bach repertoire. Sustained harmonic textures — pairs well with melodic input.
• organ_archive_b2048_r48000_z16.ts — Organ (Archive). Historical pipe-organ recordings — broader, dustier textures than the Bach model. Good for film-score atmospheres.
• sax_soprano_franziskaschroeder_b2048_r48000_z20.ts — Soprano Sax (Schroeder). Soprano-saxophone extended techniques by Franziska Schroeder. Multiphonics, growls, key clicks. 20-dim latent — captures fine-grained articulation.
• mrp_strengjavera_b2048_r44100_z16.ts — Magnetic Resonator Piano (Strengjavera). Sustained metallic-string overtones produced by electromagnetically driving piano strings — 44.1 kHz.
• crozzoli_bigensemblesmusic_18d.ts — Big Ensemble Music (Crozzoli). Big-ensemble orchestral music (M. Crozzoli). Broad 18-dim latent for hugely-textured renders. Sample rate not embedded in filename — defaults to 48 kHz.

Textures / environment

• water_pondbrain_b2048_r48000_z16.ts — Water (PondBrain). Water / aquatic textures. Treats any input as if it were running through liquid — bubbles, ripples, splashes.
• magnets_b2048_r48000_z8.ts — Magnets. Ferromagnetic / electromagnetic resonance textures — metallic hums, distant industrial buzz, magnetized-string ringing.

Models — ACIDS public catalog (10 models, mirrored 2026-05-18)

Note: VCTK.ts (ACIDS v1, 48 kHz, original 2022 release) and voice_vctk_b2048_r44100_z22.ts (IIL v2 retrain, 44.1 kHz) are different models trained on the same source corpus — keep both for comparison.
