Researchers have developed LiveBand, a novel system capable of generating high-fidelity music accompaniments in real-time to live audio input. This system adheres to strict causal constraints by training a causal transformer generator within the latent space of a pre-trained audio autoencoder. LiveBand demonstrates improved performance over existing methods on objective measures of audio quality, beat alignment, and mix adherence, while also enabling real-time streaming generation on consumer hardware.
