Wavenext-encodec

Model Details

Model Description

Wavenext is a modification of Vocos, where the last ISTFT layer is replaced with a a trainable linear layer that can directly predict speech waveform samples.

This version of Wavenext uses encodec tokens as input features, it's trained using the following bandwidths from encodec (1.5, 3.0, 6.0, 12.0) .

Intended Uses and limitations

The model is aimed to serve as a vocoder to synthesize audio waveforms from encodec discrete codes. Is trained to generate speech and if is used in other audio domain is possible that the model won't produce high quality samples.

Usage

Installation

To use Wavenext only in inference mode, install it using:

pip install git+https://github.com/langtech-bsc/wavenext_pytorch

Reconstruct audio from encodec tokens

You need to provide a bandwidth_id which corresponds to the embedding for bandwidth from the list: [1.5, 3.0, 6.0, 12.0].

import torch

from vocos import Vocos

vocos = Vocos.from_pretrained("BSC-LT/wavenext-encodec")

audio_tokens = torch.randint(low=0, high=1024, size=(8, 200))  # 8 codeboooks, 200 frames
features = vocos.codes_to_features(audio_tokens)
bandwidth_id = torch.tensor([2])  # 6 kbps

audio = vocos.decode(features, bandwidth_id=bandwidth_id)

Copy-synthesis from a file:

import torchaudio

y, sr = torchaudio.load(YOUR_AUDIO_FILE)
if y.size(0) > 1:  # mix to mono
    y = y.mean(dim=0, keepdim=True)
y = torchaudio.functional.resample(y, orig_freq=sr, new_freq=24000)
y_hat = vocos(y, bandwidth_id=bandwidth_id)

Training Procedure

The model was trained for 1M steps and 99 epochs with a batch size of 16 for stability. We used a Cosine scheduler with a initial learning rate of 1e-4.

Training Hyperparameters

  • initial_learning_rate: 1e-4
  • scheduler: cosine without warmup or restarts
  • mel_loss_coeff: 45
  • mrd_loss_coeff: 0.1
  • batch_size: 16
  • num_samples: 16384

Evaluation

Evaluation was done using the metrics on the original vocos repo, Note that this metrics are calculated using the codecs corresponding to a bandwidth of 1.5 kbps, after 99 epochs we achieve:

  • val_loss: 5.52
  • f1_score: 0.93
  • mel_loss: 0.53
  • periodicity_loss:0.14
  • pesq_score: 2.12
  • pitch_loss: 47.73
  • utmos_score: 2.89
