Model Details

This is the XL (4B) Turbo variant of ACE-Step 1.5 — a distillation-accelerated model that generates high-quality audio in just 8 steps. Combines the speed of turbo with the quality of the 4B architecture.

XL Architecture

GPU Requirements

All LM models (0.6B / 1.7B / 4B) are fully compatible with XL.

Key Features

• —💰 Commercial-Ready: Trained on legally compliant datasets. Generated music can be used for commercial purposes.
• —📚 Safe Training Data: Licensed music, royalty-free/public domain, and synthetic (MIDI-to-Audio) data.
• —⚡ Fast: 8-step inference — the fastest XL variant.
• —🔮 Higher Quality: 4B parameters provide richer audio quality than 2B turbo.
