StepFun 与 ACE Studio 发布 StepAudio 3 Music，可将文本描述和歌词生成完整歌曲，支持歌曲生成、器乐生成、音乐翻唱、人声编排四种工作流，并基于 ABC-COT 先规划音乐结构与编排再合成。
StepFun has released StepAudio 3 Music, a model that turns a text description and lyrics into a finished song.
The interesting engineering result is that better audio reconstruction did not necessarily produce better music generation.
The technical report compares single-codebook and residual vector quantization approaches. The final tokenizer uses one token stream at 50 Hz with 65,536 entries, followed by a flow-matching DiT renderer.
Why this matters: the representation has to preserve sound AND give the autoregressive model a sequence it can predict reliably. Optimizing the codec in isolation can miss that trade-off.
(In comment you will find some audio examples to give this architecture some context)
StepFun and ACE Studio present StepAudio 3 Music, StepFun’s first music generation foundation model — built to turn a prompt and lyrics into a complete song. Describe the sound you want: • Genre, mood and vocal character • Instruments, key and BPM • Song structure and arrangement Four workflows in one model: 🎤 Song generation 🎹 Instrumental generation 🔁 Music cover 🎙️ Vocal-to-song arrangement Powered by ABC-COT, it plans musical structure and arrangement before synthesis. Generate a version, rewrite the prompt, edit the ABC notation, and iterate toward the sound in your head.
