# ACE Step Audio To Audio API

> Endurhljóðblandar fyrirliggjandi lag eða skiptir út texta þess með upprunalegum og nýjum merkjum sem leiðbeiningu

Byrjar með `audio_url` ásamt `original_tags` og beitir nýjum `tags` til að breyta stílnum. `edit_mode` er annaðhvort remix, sem breytir heildarhljóðinu, eða lyrics, sem breytir aðeins því sem er sungið. Hægt er að gefa upp `original_lyrics` og ný `lyrics`, auk `original_seed` ef hann er þekktur. Skrefa- og leiðbeiningabreytur eru þær sömu og í fjölskyldunni.

- Output: audio
- Price per second of your input audio: $0.0002 / second of input audio (cheapest run $0.001 (1 API credit))
- Run: `POST https://api.doitong.com/v1/run/ace-step/audio-to-audio`

## Pricing

Price: **$0.0002 / second of input audio**. Price per second of your input 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 $0.002 = 2 API credits (10 s input 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-to-audio` 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 |  |  | Vefslóð hljóðskrár fyrir útmálun. |

| `original_tags` |  | string | yes |  |  | Merki sem upphaflega tengdust hljóðskránni. |
| `original_lyrics` |  | string | no | `` |  | Texti sem upphaflega tengdist hljóðskránni. |

| `lyrics` |  | string | no | `` |  | Sunginn texti, þar sem laghlutar eru skipulagðir með stýringum á borð við [verse], [chorus] og [bridge]. Fyrir hljóð án söngtexta skal sleppa þessu inntaki eða aðeins gefa upp [inst] eða [instrumental]. |
| `number_of_steps` |  | integer | no | `27` | 3 – 60 | Fjöldi skrefa sem notaður er við efnisgerð hljóðs. |
| `seed` |  | integer \| null | no |  |  | Sáðgildi fyrir endurtekningarhæfa efnisgerð, valið af handahófi nema þú gefir upp gildi. |

## 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",
  "original_tags": "lofi, hiphop, drum and bass, trap, chill"

}
```

## 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-to-audio?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",
    "original_tags": "lofi, hiphop, drum and bass, trap, chill"
  }'

# 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

payload = {

request = r.json()

### 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-to-audio",
      "input": {
        "tags": "lofi, hiphop, drum and bass, trap, chill",
        "audio_url": "https://content.doitong.com/audio/showcase/v3/tools/dub_es.mp3",
        "original_tags": "lofi, hiphop, drum and bass, trap, chill"
      },
      "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.
