RAVE Models

This is a collection of RAVE models trained by the Intelligent Instruments Lab for various projects.

For a full description see our blog post at: https://iil.is/news/ravemodels, and for more about RAVE, see the original paper from IRCAM.

Most of these models are encoder-decoder only, no prior, and all use the --causal mode and are exported for streaming inference with nn~, NN.ar or rave-supercollider.

In the checkpoints/ directory are some complete checkpoints which can be used with our fork of RAVE to speed up training by transfer learning.
