AI summary

This disclosure is directed to an enhanced audio file generator. One aspect is a method of enhancing input speech in an input audio file, the method comprising receiving the input audio file representing the input speech, wherein the input audio file is recorded at an audio recording device, and generating an enhanced audio file by applying an audio transformation model to the input audio file, wherein applying the audio transformation model to generate the enhanced audio file comprises extracting parameters defining audio features from the input audio file, the parameters including a noise parameter defining noise in the input audio file and one or more other preset parameters respectively defining other audio features, synthesizing clean speech based on the extracted parameters including the noise parameter, wherein synthesizing the clean speech comprises transforming the noise parameter to defined value(s); and generating the enhanced audio file with the synthesized clean speech.
