| contents | Guitar-related machine listening research involves tasks like timbre transfer, performance generation, and automatic transcription. However, small datasets often limit model robustness due to insufficient acoustic diversity and musical content. To address these issues, we introduce Guitar-TECHS, a comprehensive dataset featuring a variety of guitar techniques, musical excerpts, chords, and scales. These elements are performed by diverse musicians across various recording settings. Guitar-TECHS incorporates recordings from two stereo microphones: an egocentric microphone positioned on the performer's head and an exocentric microphone placed in front of the performer. It also includes direct input recordings and microphoned amplifier outputs, offering a wide spectrum of audio inputs and recording qualities. All signals and MIDI labels are properly synchronized. Its multi-perspective and multi-modal content makes Guitar-TECHS a valuable resource for advancing data-driven guitar research, and to develop robust guitar listening algorithms. We provide empirical data to demonstrate the dataset's effectiveness in training robust models for Guitar Tablature Transcription. |
