# Sam Audio · Span Separate API

> Isola um som do áudio usando intervalos de tempo fornecidos, com uma dica de texto opcional

Em vez de depender apenas de texto, você fornece `spans` marcando quando o som-alvo ocorre no `audio_url`. `prompt` é opcional, mas ajuda a identificar o tipo de som. `trim_to_span` pode cortar a saída para o intervalo, e `use_sound_activity_ranking` permite reclassificação sem prompt. Retorna áudio `target` e `residual` em wav ou mp3.

- Model id: `sam-audio/span-separate`
- Made by: Meta
- Category: Audio
- Output: json
- Price per 30 seconds of your input audio: from $0.05 / 30 seconds of input audio (cheapest run $0.05 (50 API credits))
- Run: `POST https://api.doitong.com/v1/run/sam-audio/span-separate`
- Quote: `POST https://api.doitong.com/v1/quote/sam-audio/span-separate`
- Docs page: https://doitong.com/pt-BR/developers/models/sam-audio/span-separate

## Pricing

Price: **from $0.05 / 30 seconds of input audio** (the lowest tier; the quote prices your exact input). Price per 30 seconds 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 $0.05 = 50 API credits (1 × 30 s input audio × $0.05).

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/sam-audio/span-separate` 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 do arquivo de áudio para processamento. |
| `prompt` |  | string \| null | no |  |  | Auxílio para identificar o som a fim de extraí-lo do intervalo. Recomenda-se, mas não é obrigatório, fornecer uma descrição textual do som a isolar. |
| `spans` |  | array of object {start, end, include} | yes |  |  | Intervalos de tempo que contêm o som desejado a isolar. |
| `spans[].start` |  | number | yes |  | ≥ 0 | Timestamp inicial do intervalo, medido em segundos. |
| `spans[].end` |  | number | yes |  | ≥ 0 | Timestamp final do intervalo, medido em segundos. |
| `spans[].include` |  | boolean | no | `true` |  | Inclusão dos sons dentro do intervalo: True os inclui, enquanto False os exclui. |
| `reranking_candidates` |  | integer | no | `1` | 1 – 7 | Quantidade de candidatos usada somente com um prompt de texto: essa quantidade de candidatos é gerada e classificada. A separação somente por intervalo ignora esta configuração. |
| `acceleration` |  | enum (string) | no | `balanced` | `fast`, `balanced`, `quality` | Nível de aceleração aplicado ao processamento. |
| `max_chunk_duration` |  | number | no | `60` | 10 – 60 | Limite de áudio por passagem, medido em segundos, acima do qual o processamento usa trechos sobrepostos que são combinados. |
| `chunk_overlap` |  | number | no | `5` | 0 – 30 | Duração da sobreposição entre os trechos, medida em segundos, usada para a combinação por crossfade. |
| `use_sound_activity_ranking` |  | boolean | no | `false` |  | Opção de classificação da atividade sonora que exige reranking_candidates > 1, permitindo a reclassificação efetiva para separação somente por intervalo sem um prompt de texto. Os candidatos recebem pontuação conforme a proximidade entre suas regiões detectadas sem silêncio e os intervalos fornecidos. |
| `trim_to_span` |  | boolean | no | `false` |  | Escolha do comprimento da saída entre apenas o intervalo especificado e o áudio completo. Ativá-la recorta o intervalo de tempo; False mantém a duração completa e isola o som desejado ao longo de todo o áudio. |
| `output_format` |  | enum (string) | no | `wav` | `wav`, `mp3` | Formato do áudio gerado. |

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
{
  "audio": "https://content.doitong.com/audio/showcase/v3/tools/dub_es.mp3",
  "spans": [
    {
      "end": 10,
      "include": true,
      "start": 6
    }
  ]
}
```

A fuller example:

```json
{
  "audio_url": "https://content.doitong.com/audio/showcase/v3/tools/dub_es.mp3",
  "spans": [
    {
      "end": 10,
      "include": true,
      "start": 6
    }
  ]
}
```

## 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/sam-audio/span-separate?wait=20" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $DOITONG_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{

    "spans": [
      {
        "end": 10,
        "include": true,
        "start": 6
      }
    ]
  }'

# 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"

### 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": "sam-audio/span-separate",
      "input": {
        "audio_url": "https://content.doitong.com/audio/showcase/v3/tools/dub_es.mp3",
        "spans": [
          {
            "end": 10,
            "include": true,
            "start": 6
          }
        ]
      },
      "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.
