TAAN / RESEARCH
Music for picture is a timing problem before it is a taste problem. We build the instruments that measure it, publish what they read, and score ourselves on the same scale as everyone else.
A benchmark for temporal controllability in text-to-music generation. TimingBench turns “bring in drums at exactly the sixth second” into a reproducible, apparatus-aware measurement — and finds that deployed systems follow tempo but not time.
Read the paperResults from the first benchmark of temporal controllability in text-to-music. Across four widely used commercial systems, taan places instructed events on time 2.8× as often as the best of them.
