A method is proposed for rhythm style transfer of multitimbral drum recordings via conditioning a VAE on
rhythm and timbral features. Modulation and estimation of latent parameters and a novel resequencing process for
reconstruction loss result in an end-to-end transformation circumventing manual segmentation and alignment.
