ACE-Step 1.5: Fast Open-Source Music Generator
ACE-Step 1.5 is a fast open-source music generation model that creates high-quality audio from text prompts, offering efficient performance and accessibility
Someone stumbled on ACE-Step 1.5, an open-source music generator that’s surprisingly fast and actually runs on normal gaming PCs.
The stats are kind of wild:
- Full song in under 2 seconds on an A100
- Around 10 seconds on an RTX 3090
- Only needs ~4GB VRAM (runs locally, no cloud credits)
- Beats Suno on standard eval metrics
The cool part is the LoRA support - train custom styles with just a few sample tracks. Everything’s MIT licensed, so commercial use is fair game.
Grab it here:
git clone https://github.com/ace-step/ACE-Step-1.5
All the weights, training code, and LoRA tools are included. The whole package (model, paper, training setup) is fully open, which is pretty rare for music generation stuff that actually performs well.
