AI upscaled sounds

Open SenhorFlibble opened this issue 2 years ago • 0 comments

I've been playing around with an online deep learning/neural network tool called SpecVGAN, and ran some low-quality Aleona's Tales sound effects through it, with arguably decent results. Since Wyrmsun uses a few sound effects from AT, I decided to contribute these:

  • Lumber Mill -- reconstructed version (SpecVQGAN produces two variants of a sound, "original" and "reconstructed")
  • building construction -- reconstructed version
  • placement success -- reconstructed
  • building explosions -- reconstructed

I think these came out quite well and are an improvement over the low-quality originals.

SpecVQGAN outputs WAV files in 22 kHz, I converted them to 44 kHz with Audacity to match the rest of Wyrmsun's sound files. This has not affected the quality of upscales in any way.
