## What this ranking can tell you

 - The date is the end of the source’s evaluation window, not the date this page was fetched.
- These results cover the source’s tested model versions. They do not establish the quality of later releases.
- Confidence bounds are reconstructed from the source’s rounded score and ± interval. Small differences should not be interpreted as decisive.
- No audio is redistributed. A benchmark result does not grant rights to a model or its generated music.

## Check the source

The original evidence is retained byte for byte. The downloadable board includes the source URLs, revision and SHA-256 hashes.
