MOD Audio Dives Into Neural Modelling

US AIDA-X is an AI neural model player developed in partnership with AIDA DSP 26/04/23

MOD Audio, the company formerly known as MOD Devices has announced the release of AIDA-X, described as a powerful AI neural model player developed in partnership with AIDA DSP.

A spokesperson told us, "AIDA-X adds to the quality of the MOD Audio ecosystem with neural amp models that have been trained on high-quality audio data, giving musicians the dynamic response and sound they expect from a real guitar amp."

Here's more details direct from MOD Audio...

With AIDA-X, musicians can easily load and play a wide range of amp models, and carry an unlimited amount of realistic sounding amplifiers - all inside the portable MOD Dwarf. Additionally AIDA-X offers a flexible set of controls for the modelled amps, so that it's easier to craft the perfect tone.

A simplified training process allows users to capture their own physical gear and share these models with the community. Professionally curated models of iconic amplifiers will also be released soon together with AIDA DSP, providing users with a great collection of plug-and-play high quality sounds.

In addition to being an integral part of the MOD platform, AIDA-X is also available both as a plugin and standalone version for any DAW. Model files for AIDA-X can be loaded in all versions of the software, providing a seamless experience at home, in the studio or onstage.

Alongside the release of AIDA-X, MOD Audio advances with the development of the MOD Assistant, an AI-based tool that provides tone suggestions to guitarists, subsidised by a German innovation program. The MOD Community already has access to a beta version and is helping to improve it with valuable feedback. The incorporation of Neural Models in the repertoire of the MOD Assistant will be the next stage.

The release of AIDA-X marks another milestone in the history of MOD, and the company remains committed to pushing the boundaries of what is possible in the world of audio processing.

Gianfranco Ceccolini, Co-Founder and CEO of MOD Audio, told us, "We're thrilled to bring AIDA-X to the market and see the incredible potential it holds for the future. With its advanced AI processing and cross-platform compatibility, we believe AIDA-X lifts the MOD platform to a new level, with incredibly good sounding gear modelling powered by strong community exchange of models"
