Features

ACE-Step — Prompt to Audio 🎶

ACE-Step Prompt-to-Audio is an intelligent music generation model that composes full-length audio tracks directly from text prompts. Simply describe the sound you want — from chill jazz to cinematic orchestral — and ACE-Step creates a polished piece in seconds.


✨ Key Features

  • Prompt-to-Music Creation Just write your idea in plain language. For example: “A jazzy chillout track with a cozy vibe about rainy evenings in a quiet café.”

  • Instrumental Mode Toggle the instrumental option to generate music without vocals — perfect for background use, podcasts, or film scoring.

  • Duration Control Use the slider to set your track length — anywhere from a few seconds to full-minute compositions (e.g., 60s).

  • Seed for Reproducibility Set the seed value to recreate the same song later, or randomize it for unique variations.

  • Genre & Emotion Understanding The model interprets keywords like “jazzy,” “dark,” “energetic,” “melancholic,” and blends rhythm, instruments, and mood accordingly.


🎧 Use Cases

  • Music Production & Songwriting — Draft melodies, instrumentals, or complete compositions in seconds.
  • Film, Game & Animation Scoring — Create background themes, ambient layers, and emotional moments effortlessly.
  • Social Media & Marketing — Produce custom soundtracks for reels, ads, or brand videos.
  • Education & Experimentation — Teach musical structure or explore AI-based composition.
  • Creative Exploration — Turn story ideas, emotions, or visual scenes into sound.

🧠 Example Prompts

  • “A cheerful pop song about summer memories.”
  • “Dark electronic beat with deep bass and atmospheric pads.”
  • “Calm piano and violin piece inspired by sunrise.”
  • “Lo-fi hip-hop track for late-night studying.”
  • “Epic orchestral theme with rising intensity.”

  2. (Optional) Enable Instrumental for vocal-free music.
