Neutone

Neutone makes audio plugins that run neural network models inside your DAW in real time. Its main product, Morpho, reshapes any incoming sound into a different sonic style while keeping its core character, and Neutone FX is a free host for research models.

Neutone FX acts as a bridge between machine learning researchers and musicians: researchers publish models, and producers load them into a free plugin to process audio live. Morpho focuses on tone morphing for sound design, and a set of small experimental devices such as neu.rhythm, neu.grains and neu.vochord tries out narrower ideas.

The Tokyo-based team also runs an artist series with interviews, sessions and a printed magazine about musicians working with neural audio.
