# Diff-SSL-G-Comp: Towards a Large-Scale and Diverse Dataset for Virtual Analog Modeling

This is the official repository 👑 for the **Diff-SSL-G-Comp** dataset. 

## Diff-SSL-G-Comp Overview ⭐️

The **Diff-SSL-G-Comp** dataset is an extensive and diverse dataset with the following features:
- we use *real-world* unmastered songs as input instead of noises and test signals;
- *175* songs are selected with diverse genres, instruments, tempos, and keys;
- comprehensive *220* parameter combinations are recorded, resulting in *2528* hours of data.

## Diff-SSL-G-Comp Dataset Structure ⛪️

Diff-SSL-G-Comp is formatted using the following structure:

```
|-- cambridge_unmastered_songs
|   |-- 54_UnmasteredWAV.wav
|   |-- ...
|-- processed_normalized
|   |-- 54_UnmasteredWAV.wav
|   |-- ...
|-- ...
|-- processed_ground_truth
|   |-- threshold_-12_attack_10_release_0.1_ratio_2
|   |   |-- 54-exported.wav
|   |   |-- ...
|   |-- ...
|-- ...

```

The raw audios are in the folder "cambridge_unmastered_songs." The normalized input audios are in the folder 
"processed_normalized." The ground truth hardware output audios are in the folder "processed_ground_truth."

Note that we used annotated thresholds illustrated on the analog device instead of the digital workstation.
