Open-Source AI Music Generation

Open-Source AI Music Generation

  1. YuE, an open-source AI music generator under the Apache 2 license, enables free local generation of full songs with no commercial use restrictions, unlike other AI music tools with potential ownership rights issues.

  2. The tool features a visual Gradio interface for non-coders, simplifying input of genre, lyrics, and song generation, while the original GitHub repo requires code-based interaction.

Technical Implementation

  1. Installation requires Git, cloning the UGP repo optimized for GPUs with <10GB VRAM, and the inference folder, totaling ~1.7GB, followed by creating a Conda virtual environment with Python 3.10+ and installing Torch 2.51 with CUDA 12.4.

  2. First-time run downloads a 5GB SafeTensor file; subsequent runs are faster, with an RTX 5000 GPU (16GB VRAM) generating a 50-second clip in 15-20 minutes.

AI Music Generation Capabilities

  1. YuE generates songs based on genre and lyrics input, producing consistent melodies across sections like choruses, but may skip some lyrics and lacks stereo width.

  2. The tool exhibits emergent properties like improvisation and freestyling when input lyrics don't match song length, resulting in interesting scatting or rap sections.

Customization and Future Potential

  1. The seed determines the generation starting point; setting the same seed with identical genre and lyrics produces identical output, while seed 0 generates random results.

  2. Being open-source, YuE is expected to improve over time, with potential optimizations for non-CUDA GPUs and lower VRAM usage, although current quality is mono and not suitable for publishing on major streaming platforms.
