Audialab

Audialab develops artificial intelligence tools for music production, focusing on generative AI technologies. Their flagship product, Emergent Drums, is a virtual instrument and sample generator that creates unique, royalty-free drum samples using advanced AI models, without relying on source recordings.

Key features:
- Generative Models: Trained on a vast database of drum and percussion samples to produce new sounds.
- Deep Sampling Technology: Enables creation of variations from users' personal sample collections.
- 16-pad Instrument: Playable via MIDI with multi-out support for individual channel shaping.
- Built-in Effects: Includes clipping, filtering, and pitch-shifting options for sound sculpting.
- Similarity Slider: Analyzes samples and generates variations until desired sound is achieved.
- Export Options: Allows exporting as standalone files or direct drag-and-drop into DAWs and plugins.

How it works:
1. Users install the plugin in their digital audio workstation (DAW).
2. The AI model generates unique drum samples based on user input.
