In this work we demonstrate an approach to discovering DJ tools in personal music collections. Leveraging open-source libraries for speech/music activity, music boundary analysis and a Contrastive Language-Audio Pretraining (CLAP) model for zero-shot audio classification, we demonstrate a novel system designed to retrieve (or rediscover) compelling DJ tools for use live or in the studio.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2411.12209v1","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2411.12209v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"zero-shot-crate-digging-dj-tool-retrieval","repo_url":"https://github.com/ruohoruotsi/djtool-crate-digging","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":0,"mentioned_in_github":0,"framework":"pytorch","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
