timoncool/YuE2-Studio

Local AI song generator with an editable score — YuE2 on your GPU: full songs with vocals, sheet music, covers, exact replay. Native Windows app, no Python, installer with auto-update.

What it solves

YuE2 Studio provides a complete, offline desktop environment for generating full-length songs using the YuE2 open-source music model. It solves the complexity of running advanced generative music models by offering a single, self-contained Windows executable that handles everything from score generation and vocal performance to audio processing and MIDI editing without requiring Python or complex manual setups.

How it works

It acts as a graphical interface for yue2.cpp, a native C++/CUDA implementation of the YuE2 model. The studio allows users to input lyrics and style descriptions to generate a musical score (in ABC notation), which the model then performs. Users can edit the generated score directly, re-render performances with different settings, or use the built-in MIDI editor to refine compositions. The application also includes an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server, allowing AI agents to control the studio's functions programmatically.

Who it’s for

This tool is designed for music creators, AI enthusiasts, and developers who want to run high-quality generative music models locally on Windows. It is particularly useful for those who want granular control over the composition process—such as editing notes or chords—rather than just generating audio from a single prompt.

Highlights

  • Full-stack music creation: Generates songs from lyrics and style, with the ability to edit the underlying score and re-render performances.
  • Native performance: Runs offline on NVIDIA GPUs (6GB+ VRAM) with experimental support for AMD/Intel via Vulkan.
  • Extensive editing tools: Includes a multi-track MIDI editor, audio stem separation (via HT-Demucs), and audio processing chains (VST3 support, mastering).
  • Agent-ready: Features an integrated MCP server, enabling AI agents to manage song creation, training, and file operations.
  • Advanced training: Includes a built-in LoRA trainer to fine-tune the model on specific artist styles or datasets.
  • User-friendly interface: Offers a portable Windows experience with features like a Winamp-style skin mode, visualizers, and automatic updates.
