# ACE Step Audio Outpaint API

> Proširuje postojeći audioisječak prije njegova početka ili nakon njegova završetka novokomponiranom glazbom

Nastavlja zapis zadan putem `audio_url`. `extend_before_duration` i `extend_after_duration` dodaju svaki do 107 sekundi na početku ili kraju, a zadana je vrijednost 30 sekundi nakon kraja. Stil proizlazi iz `tags`, uz neobavezne `lyrics` za dodane dijelove. Broj koraka, planer i postavke usmjeravanja podudaraju se s ostalim modelima ACE Step.

- Model id: `ace-step/audio-outpaint`
- Made by: ACE Studio
- Category: Text to Music
- Output: audio
- Price per second of your output audio: $0.0002 / second of output audio (cheapest run $0.001 (1 API credit))
- Run: `POST https://api.doitong.com/v1/run/ace-step/audio-outpaint`
- Quote: `POST https://api.doitong.com/v1/quote/ace-step/audio-outpaint`
- Docs page: https://doitong.com/hr/developers/models/ace-step/audio-outpaint

## Pricing

Price: **$0.0002 / second of output audio**. Price per second of your output audio: the input files are measured before the run (length, resolution, frame rate). The quote measures the same files and is exactly what the run charges.

The full example input below costs $0.006 = 6 API credits (30 s output audio × $0.0002).

Prices are the upstream price in USD, paid from the API balance in API credits (1000 API credits = 1 USD). `POST https://api.doitong.com/v1/quote/ace-step/audio-outpaint` with the same JSON body returns the exact price for that input; the quote is exactly what a run charges. Invalid input is never charged and failed or canceled requests are refunded automatically.

## Input parameters

Send either the canonical name or the native field name (not both). Canonical names are the same across models.

| Parameter | Canonical name | Type | Required | Default | Allowed values / range | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| `audio_url` | `audio` | string (audio URL) | yes |  |  | URL audio datoteke za proširivanje. |
| `extend_before_duration` |  | number | no | `0` | 0 – 107 | Trajanje proširenja prije početka audija, u sekundama. |
| `extend_after_duration` |  | number | no | `30` | 0 – 107 | Trajanje proširenja nakon kraja audija, u sekundama. |
| `tags` |  | string | yes |  |  | Oznake audio stila zadane kao žanrovi odvojeni zarezima, pri čemu je `prompt` dostupan kao alternativni način njihova zadavanja. |
| `lyrics` |  | string | no | `` |  | Otpjevani stihovi, s odjeljcima pjesme organiziranima pomoću oznaka kao što su [verse], [chorus] i [bridge]. Za audio bez otpjevanih stihova izostavite ovaj ulaz ili navedite samo [inst] ili [instrumental]. |
| `number_of_steps` |  | integer | no | `27` | 3 – 60 | Broj koraka koji se koristi tijekom generiranja audija. |
| `seed` |  | integer \| null | no |  |  | Seed za ponovljivo generiranje, odabran nasumično ako ne navedete vrijednost. |
| `scheduler` |  | enum (string) | no | `euler` | `euler`, `heun` | Scheduler koji se koristi tijekom generiranja. |
| `guidance_type` |  | enum (string) | no | `apg` | `cfg`, `apg`, `cfg_star` | Vrsta CFG-a koja se koristi tijekom generiranja. |
| `granularity_scale` |  | integer | no | `10` | -100 – 100 | Skala granularnosti primijenjena tijekom generiranja. Povećanje može smanjiti artefakte. |
| `guidance_interval` |  | number | no | `0.5` | 0 – 1 | Dio rasporeda generiranja na koji se primjenjuje usmjeravanje: odabirom 0.5 ograničava se na korake od 0.25 * infer_steps do 0.75 * infer_steps, dok početak i kraj ostaju bez usmjeravanja. |
| `guidance_interval_decay` |  | number | no | `0` | 0 – 1 | Opadanje usmjeravanja unutar intervala generiranja: 0.0 onemogućuje opadanje; u suprotnom se skala tijekom tog intervala smanjuje s guidance_scale na min_guidance_scale. |
| `guidance_scale` |  | number | no | `15` | 0 – 200 | Skala usmjeravanja primijenjena tijekom generiranja. |
| `minimum_guidance_scale` |  | number | no | `3` | 0 – 200 | Najniža skala usmjeravanja dosegnuta nakon opadanja tijekom generiranja. |
| `tag_guidance_scale` |  | number | no | `5` | 0 – 10 | Skala usmjeravanja oznaka primijenjena tijekom generiranja. |
| `lyric_guidance_scale` |  | number | no | `1.5` | 0 – 10 | Skala usmjeravanja stihova primijenjena tijekom generiranja. |

File parameters (`audio`) take a public `https://` URL, a `data:` URI up to 10 MB, or the `file_url` of an upload from `POST /files`.

## Example input

Required parameters only:

```json
{
  "tags": "lofi, hiphop, drum and bass, trap, chill",
  "audio": "https://content.doitong.com/audio/showcase/v3/tools/dub_es.mp3"
}
```

A fuller example:

```json
{
  "tags": "lofi, hiphop, drum and bass, trap, chill",
  "audio_url": "https://content.doitong.com/audio/showcase/v3/tools/dub_es.mp3"
}
```

## Run it

Set `DOITONG_API_KEY` to a key from https://doitong.com/developers/dashboard#keys. `?wait=20` returns the finished request in the same call when it is ready within 20 seconds; otherwise poll `GET /requests/{id}` (it also accepts `?wait=`), or pass `webhook_url`.

### curl

```bash
# Run the model; wait up to 20 s for the finished result in the same call
curl -X POST "https://api.doitong.com/v1/run/ace-step/audio-outpaint?wait=20" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $DOITONG_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "tags": "lofi, hiphop, drum and bass, trap, chill",
    "audio_url": "https://content.doitong.com/audio/showcase/v3/tools/dub_es.mp3"
  }'

# Still "queued" or "running"? Poll with the id from the response:
curl "https://api.doitong.com/v1/requests/REQUEST_ID?wait=20" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $DOITONG_API_KEY"
```

### JavaScript

```javascript
const API = "https://api.doitong.com/v1";
const headers = {
  "Authorization": "Bearer " + process.env.DOITONG_API_KEY,
  "Content-Type": "application/json",
};

// Run the model; wait up to 20 s for the finished result in the same call
let res = await fetch(API + "/run/ace-step/audio-outpaint?wait=20", {
  method: "POST",
  headers,
  body: JSON.stringify({
    "tags": "lofi, hiphop, drum and bass, trap, chill",
    "audio_url": "https://content.doitong.com/audio/showcase/v3/tools/dub_es.mp3"
  }),
});
let request = await res.json();
if (!res.ok) throw new Error(request.error.code + ": " + request.error.message);

// Not finished yet: long-poll until it is
while (request.status === "queued" || request.status === "running") {
  res = await fetch(API + "/requests/" + request.id + "?wait=20", { headers });
  request = await res.json();
}
if (request.status !== "succeeded") throw new Error(JSON.stringify(request.error));
console.log(request.outputs.map((o) => o.url), request.cost.credits + " API credits ($" + request.cost.usd + ")");
```

### Python

```python
import os
import requests

API = "https://api.doitong.com/v1"
headers = {"Authorization": "Bearer " + os.environ["DOITONG_API_KEY"]}

payload = {
    "tags": "lofi, hiphop, drum and bass, trap, chill",
    "audio_url": "https://content.doitong.com/audio/showcase/v3/tools/dub_es.mp3",
}

# Run the model; wait up to 20 s for the finished result in the same call
r = requests.post(API + "/run/ace-step/audio-outpaint", params={"wait": 20}, json=payload, headers=headers)
request = r.json()
if not r.ok:
    raise RuntimeError(request["error"]["code"] + ": " + request["error"]["message"])

# Not finished yet: long-poll until it is
while request["status"] in ("queued", "running"):
    request = requests.get(API + "/requests/" + request["id"], params={"wait": 20}, headers=headers).json()
if request["status"] != "succeeded":
    raise RuntimeError(request["error"])
print([o["url"] for o in request["outputs"]], request["cost"]["credits"], "API credits", "$" + request["cost"]["usd"])
```

### MCP

The MCP server at `https://api.doitong.com/v1/mcp` exposes the tools `search_models`, `get_model`, `quote`, `run`, `get_request`, `cancel_request`, `list_requests`, `create_upload` and `get_account`. A `run` call for this model:

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "run",
    "arguments": {
      "model_id": "ace-step/audio-outpaint",
      "input": {
        "tags": "lofi, hiphop, drum and bass, trap, chill",
        "audio_url": "https://content.doitong.com/audio/showcase/v3/tools/dub_es.mp3"
      },
      "wait_seconds": 20
    }
  }
}
```

## Response

Every call returns a request object. `status` is one of `queued`, `running`, `succeeded`, `failed`, `canceled`. `outputs` lists the generated files with URLs on our storage (kept forever, or 7 days with `?storage=temporary`; `storage` says which); `output` is the model's own result object with the same URLs.
