Stable Audio 3 Medium (Base)

Note: This is the base (pre-trained) model intended for fine-tuning. If you are looking to generate audio directly, please use Stable Audio 3 Medium instead.

Model Description

Stable Audio 3 is a family of fast latent diffusion models (small, medium, large) for variable length audio generation and editing. Since our models can generate several minutes of audio, variable-length generations are key to avoid the cost of producing full-length generations for short sounds. We also support inpainting, enabling targeted audio editing and the continuation of short recordings. Our latent diffusion models operate on top of a novel semantic-acoustic autoencoder that projects audio into a compact latent space, enabling efficient diffusion-based generation while preserving audio fidelity and encouraging semantic structure in the latent. Finally, we run adversarial post-training to both accelerate inference and improve generation quality, reducing the number of inference steps while improving fidelity and prompt adherence. Stable Audio 3 models are trained on licensed and Creative Commons data to generate music and sounds in less than a 2s on an H200 GPU and less than a few seconds on a MacBook Pro M4. We release the weights of small and medium, that can run on consumer-grade hardware, together with their training and inference pipeline.

Usage

This model can be used with:

the stable-audio-3 inference and fine-tuning library
the stable-audio-tools research library

Using with `stable-audio-3`

python

from stable_audio_3 import StableAudioModel

model = StableAudioModel.from_pretrained("medium-base")
audio = model.generate(
    prompt=(
        "House music that encapsulates the feeling of being at a festival "
        "in the sunny weather with all your friends 124 BPM"
    ),
    duration=180,
    steps=50,
    cfg_scale=7.0
)

Using with `stable-audio-tools`

python

import torch
import torchaudio
from einops import rearrange
from stable_audio_tools import get_pretrained_model
from stable_audio_tools.inference.generation import generate_diffusion_cond_inpaint

device = "cuda" if torch.cuda.is_available() else "cpu"
if device == "cuda":
  model_half = True

# Download model
model, model_config = get_pretrained_model("stabilityai/stable-audio-3-medium-base")
sample_rate = model_config["sample_rate"]
sample_size = model_config["sample_size"]

model = model.to(device)
if model_half:
  model = model.to(torch.float16)
# Set up text and timing conditioning
conditioning = [{
    "prompt": (
        "A dream-like Synthpop instrumental that would accompany "
        "a dream-sequence in a surrealist movie 120 BPM"
    ),
    "seconds_total": 380
}]

# Generate stereo audio
output = generate_diffusion_cond_inpaint(
    model,
    steps=50,
    cfg_scale=7.0,
    conditioning=conditioning,
    sample_size=sample_size,
    sampler_type="euler",
    device=device
)

# Rearrange audio batch to a single sequence
output = rearrange(output, "b d n -> d (b n)")

# Peak normalize, clip, convert to int16, and save to file
output = output.to(torch.float32).div(torch.max(torch.abs(output))).clamp(-1, 1).mul(32767).to(torch.int16).cpu()
torchaudio.save("output.wav", output, sample_rate)

Training dataset

Datasets Used

Our dataset consists of 1,278,902 audio recordings, where 806,284 recordings are licensed from AudioSparx and a further 472,618 are from Freesound. The Freesound portion consists of recordings licensed under CC-0, CC-BY, or CCSampling+. To ensure no copyrighted content was present in the Freesound data, music recordings were identified using the PANNs [89] tagger. We flagged audio that activated music-related tags for at least 30s (threshold of 0.15), that was sent to a trusted content detection company to verify the absence of copyrighted material. All identified copyrighted content was removed. After filtering, the Freesound part includes 266,324 CC-0, 194,840 CC-BY, and 11,454 CC-Sampling+ recordings. The same subset of Freesound audio we used to train Stable Audio Open: https://info.stability.ai/attributions.
