While recent years have witnessed rapid progress in speech synthesis, open-source singing voice synthesis (SVS) systems still face significant barriers to industrial deployment, particularly in terms of robustness and zero-shot generalization. In this report, we introduce SoulX-Singer, a high-quality open-source SVS system designed with practical deployment considerations in mind. SoulX-Singer supports controllable singing generation conditioned on either symbolic musical scores (MIDI) or melodic representations, enabling flexible and expressive control in real-world production workflows. Trained on more than 42,000 hours of vocal data, the system supports Mandarin Chinese, English, and Cantonese and consistently achieves state-of-the-art synthesis quality across languages under diverse musical conditions. Furthermore, to enable reliable evaluation of zero-shot SVS performance in practical scenarios, we construct SoulX-Singer-Eval, a dedicated benchmark with strict training-test disentanglement, facilitating systematic assessment in zero-shot settings.

Large Audio-Language Models (LALMs) have demonstrated remarkable performance in end-to-end speaker diarization and recognition. However, their speaker discriminability remains limited due to the scarcity of large-scale conversational data and the absence of explicit speaker representation optimization. To address this, we propose GLSC-SDR, a paradigm that jointly trains speaker classification with diarization and recognition. We further introduce a Global-Local Speaker Classification strategy, which uses clustered speakers as global labels and re-encoded intra-cluster speakers as local labels. This hierarchical design enhances fine-grained speaker discrimination while preserving semantic transcription accuracy. Experiments on AliMeeting, AISHELL-4, and AMI-SDM demonstrate that GLSC-SDR achieves competitive or superior performance compared to simulation-based and multi-encoder approaches, without relying on large-scale real conversational data.
