# Stable Audio 3 · Medium · Text to Audio API

> Text-to-audio Medium destilado, com predefinição rápida de 8 passos e clips até 380 segundos

Cria áudio a partir de um `prompt` de texto, opcionalmente com um `negative_prompt`. Esta variante pós-treinada utiliza por predefinição 8 passos de amostragem e beneficia pouco de valores superiores; a escala de orientação é predefinida como 1, pois só tem efeito nos checkpoints base. `duration` varia entre 1 e 380 segundos. Escolha entre saída mp3, wav, flac, ogg, opus, m4a ou aac.

## Pricing

Price: **$0.0376 / request**. Billed once per request.

The full example input below costs $0.038 = 38 API credits (1 request × 37.6 API credits).

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/stable-audio-3/medium/text-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

| Parameter | Canonical name | Type | Required | Default | Allowed values / range | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| `negative_prompt` |  | string | no | `` |  | Texto que especifica qualidades indesejadas na saída. |
| `duration` |  | number | no | `30` | 1 – 380 | Duração do áudio em segundos, com um máximo de 380 segundos para o modelo médio (aproximadamente 6 minutos 20 segundos). |
| `num_inference_steps` |  | integer | no | `8` | 1 – 100 | Contagem de iterações de amostragem, com predefinição de 8 porque os checkpoints destilados e pós-treinados já alcançam boa qualidade nesse valor; iterações adicionais oferecem poucos benefícios. |
| `guidance_scale` |  | number | no | `1` | 0 – 25 | Intensidade de orientação sem classificador apenas para checkpoints base; os checkpoints destilados não são afetados. Nos checkpoints aplicáveis, aumentá-la reforça a aderência ao prompt. |
| `seed` |  | integer \| null | no |  |  | Seed do gerador aleatório para resultados reproduzíveis; omiti-la seleciona uma seed aleatória. |
| `enable_prompt_expansion` |  | boolean | no | `false` |  | Expansão do prompt com um LLM quando ativada, adicionando detalhes e melhorando a qualidade do resultado. |
| `enable_safety_checker` |  | boolean | no | `true` |  | Verificação de segurança para conteúdo NSFW. |
| `output_format` |  | enum (string) | no | `mp3` | `mp3`, `wav`, `flac`, `ogg`, `opus`, `m4a`, `aac` | Formato do contentor usado para o áudio resultante. |
| `bitrate` |  | string | no | `192k` |  | Taxa de bits do áudio de saída, ignorada ao usar wav ou flac por serem formatos sem perdas. Para formatos comprimidos como mp3, aac ou opus, forneça um valor no formato '192k' ou '320k'. |
| `prompt` |  | string | yes |  |  | Texto que especifica o conteúdo de áudio pretendido. |

## Example input

Required parameters only:

```json
{
  "prompt": "A red fox trots through fresh snow at sunrise, soft golden light, shallow depth of field"
}
```

A fuller example:

```json
{
  "prompt": "A red fox trots through fresh snow at sunrise, soft golden light, shallow depth of field"
}
```

## 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/stable-audio-3/medium/text-to-audio?wait=20" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $DOITONG_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "prompt": "A red fox trots through fresh snow at sunrise, soft golden light, shallow depth of field"
  }'

# 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/stable-audio-3/medium/text-to-audio?wait=20", {
  method: "POST",
  headers,
  body: JSON.stringify({
    "prompt": "A red fox trots through fresh snow at sunrise, soft golden light, shallow depth of field"
  }),
});
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 = {
    "prompt": "A red fox trots through fresh snow at sunrise, soft golden light, shallow depth of field",
}

# Run the model; wait up to 20 s for the finished result in the same call
r = requests.post(API + "/run/stable-audio-3/medium/text-to-audio", 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": "stable-audio-3/medium/text-to-audio",
      "input": {
        "prompt": "A red fox trots through fresh snow at sunrise, soft golden light, shallow depth of field"
      },
      "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.
