Model Details
Distill-NeuCodec is a version of NeuCodec with a compatible, distilled encoder.
The distilled encoder is 10x smaller in parameter count and uses ~7.5x less MACs at inference time.
The distilled model makes the following adjustments to the model:
- Swap the notoriuously slow BigCodec acoustic encoder for the SQCodec acoustic encoder (70m → 36m)
- Swap the w2v-bert-2.0 semantic encoder for DistilHuBERT (600m → 21m)
Our work is largely based on extending the work of X-Codec2.0 and SQCodec.

Get Started
Use the code below to get started with the model.
To install from pypi in a dedicated environment, using Python 3.10 or above:
conda create -n neucodec python=3.10
conda activate neucodec
pip install neucodec
Then, to use in python:
import librosa
import torch
import torchaudio
from torchaudio import transforms as T
from neucodec import DistillNeuCodec
model = DistillNeuCodec.from_pretrained("neuphonic/distill-neucodec")
model.eval().cuda()
y, sr = torchaudio.load(librosa.ex("libri1"))
if sr != 16_000:
y = T.Resample(sr, 16_000)(y)[None, ...] # (B, 1, T_16)
with torch.no_grad():
fsq_codes = model.encode_code(y)
# fsq_codes = model.encode_code(librosa.ex("libri1")) # or directly pass your filepath!
print(f"Codes shape: {fsq_codes.shape}")
recon = model.decode_code(fsq_codes).cpu() # (B, 1, T_24)
torchaudio.save("reconstructed.wav", recon[0, :, :], 24_000)
Training Details
The model was trained using the same data as the full model, with an additional distillation loss (MSE between distilled and original encoder ouputs).
