Salamon, R. M. Bittner, J. Bonada, J. J. Bosch, E. G&oacute;mez, and J. P. Bello. &quot;An analysis/synthesis framework for&nbsp;<br> automatic f0 annotation of multitrack datasets&quot;. In 18th Int. Soc. for Music Info. Retrieval Conf., Suzhou, China,&nbsp;<br> Oct. 2017.</p> <p>This dataset includes:<br> * 65 stereo wav files of song mixes where the original melody stem (track) has been replaced with a resynthesized one<br> * 65 mono wav files containing the resynthesized melody stem (track) only<br> * 65 csv files containing a perfect f0 annotation of the melody stem (track) obtained via the analysis/synthesis&nbsp;<br> &nbsp; method described in the paper</p> <p>The data come in three folders, the contents of which is described below.</p> <p><br> audio_mix<br> ---------<br> Contains 65 stereo wav files of song mixes where the original melody stem (track) has been replaced with a&nbsp;<br> resynthesized one. All other stems (tracks) in the mix are the original ones (not resynthesized). The resynthesized &nbsp;<br> melody is obtained via the analysis/synthesis method described in the paper, and is automatically mixed together&nbsp;<br> with the rest of the stems as described in the paper.</p> <p>Naming convention:&nbsp;<br> &lt;artist&gt;_&lt;songtitle&gt;_MIX_melsynth.wav</p> <p>Example:&nbsp;<br> AClassicEducation_NightOwl_MIX_melsynth.wav</p> <p><br> audio_melody<br> ------------<br> Contains 65 mono wav files of the resynthesized melody stem (track) only. The resynthesized melody is obtained via the&nbsp;<br> analysis/synthesis method described in the paper.</p> <p>Naming convention:&nbsp;<br> &lt;artist&gt;_&lt;songtitle&gt;_STEM_&lt;stemID&gt;.RESYN.wav</p> <p>Example:&nbsp;<br> AClassicEducation_NightOwl_STEM_08.RESYN.wav</p> <p><br> annotation_melody<br> -----------------<br> Contains 65 csv files containing a perfect f0 annotation of the melody stem (track) obtained via the analysis/synthesis&nbsp;<br> method described in the paper.&nbsp;</p> <p>Format:<br> Each file contains two comma-separated columns, the first containing timestamps and the second containing the melody&nbsp;<br> f0 in Hz. The first frame in the annotation is zero-centered. Silence is indicated as 0 Hz. The hop size of the&nbsp;<br> annotation is 128/44100 seconds (~2.9 ms).</p> <p>Naming convention:<br> &lt;artist&gt;_&lt;songtitle&gt;_STEM_&lt;stemID&gt;.RESYN.csv</p> <p>Example:<br> AClassicEducation_NightOwl_STEM_08.RESYN.csv</p> <p><br> Please Acknowledge MDB-melody-synth in Academic Research<br> --------------------------------------------------------</p> <p>Please cite the following publication when using MDB-melody-synth:</p> <p>J.
