From what I've gathered, it was just AI to clean up a track that was previously too poorly recorded to release.
It's not synthesised, it's just repaired.

Yeah. From what I understand, Giles Martin used the same technique (or, at least, a similar one) when making the 2022 remix of Revolver. The AI was able to make clean stems from the original tracks where the instruments were mixed. So, I would suspect that this technique was able to separate the vocal from tape hiss, room noise and other factors--it isn't a deepfake of John Lennon.
Damn, was looking forward to a.i. Yoko Oni ruining the track.
Interesting, I wonder why this couldn’t be accomplished with conventional techniques. I own a handful of “AI” Plugins meant to achieve similar cleanup and I feel like it always needs to be tweaked to sound right. And that’s for a guy like me without practiced mixing ears. I wonder why real studio engineers needed AI.
It was likely a combination of AI and manual tuning, like with modern photoshop plugins.
AI in this usecase is another tool for the engineer.
Hey! You can also post this to !beatles@sopuli.xyz if you fancy :)
The Beatles link doesn't work for me. It looks broken. No http:// in it. Why email?
You can post it.
That's how Lemmy community addresses are formatted, it isn't email. The part after the @ symbol is the specific Lemmy instance that hosts the community.
Try copying and pasting the whole address (including the "!" at the start) into the search bar on the Lemmy instance that you use and you should be able to find that Beetles community after a few seconds!
Arhhh. The bit after the ! the android app is treating as an email. And I can't select the text. Future releases..
You're welcomed to post it though.
If you click on the 3 dots to the bottom right of the comment then select "view source" you should be able to select the text.
I'm not that phased about it getting crossposted personally, just wanted to give you a hand in figuring out how Lemmy (and Jerboa) work!
That’s pretty amazing. I’m excited to hear the song
I can't imagine thinking so much of yourself that you need to use AI to release a new song in this manner. It's wild.
It'll be interesting to hear. However, I really hope someone doesn't buy the rights to the Beatles and start generating new albums when Paul and Ringo are gone. It'll be soulless.
