The IDM Latent Space project transforms high-dimensional synthesizer preset data into compact, machine learning-friendly representations. By analyzing Access Virus and Osiris synthesizer presets, the system creates reduced-dimensional spaces (32D, 64D, 128D) that preserve musical characteristics while enabling AI applications.

Synthesizer presets are collections of parameter settings that define a sound. The IDM Latent Space project focuses on:
- Access Virus - Popular virtual analog synthesizer with 384 parameters
- Osiris - Virus-compatible synthesizer with similar parameter structure
- SysEx Format - System Exclusive MIDI data containing preset information
Latent space refers to a compressed representation that captures the essential characteristics of the original data:
| Original Space | Latent Space | Compression Ratio |
|---|---|---|
| 384 parameters | 32 dimensions | 8.3% (12:1) |
| 384 parameters | 64 dimensions | 16.7% (6:1) |
| 384 parameters | 128 dimensions | 33.3% (3:1) |
Parameters are weighted by musical significance:
- Music Information Retrieval - Analyze large preset databases
- Generative Modeling - Train VAEs/GANs for preset generation
- Classification Tasks - Automatic genre and style detection
- Clustering Analysis - Discover preset families and relationships
- Preset Interpolation - Morph between different sounds
- Smart Recommendations - Find similar presets automatically
- Educational Tools - Understand synthesizer programming principles
- DAW Integration - Import analysis results into music production workflows
- Model Training - Use vectors as input features for ML models
- Similarity Search - Find presets with similar characteristics
- Dimensionality Visualization - Plot preset relationships in 2D/3D
- Data Augmentation - Generate synthetic training data
