Central to its design is a Variational Auto-Encoder (VAE), around which we have designed a deployment context enabling performance through accompaniment and/or user interaction. This module allows the user to use the system as an accompaniment generator while interacting with the generative processes in real-time. In this paper, we review the design principles and technical architecture of the module, while also discussing the potentials and short-comings of our work.application/pdfengLicensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License (CC BY 4.0).
