ACE-Step Test Bench

Upload a clip, pick what the AI should do, listen to what comes back.

1 · Access

Passcode

2 · Your clip

Not needed for “New from text”.

3 · What should it do?

Describe it (style, instruments, mood)

How many takes (1–4)

BPM hint (optional)

Key hint (optional)

Advanced (model & quality)

Model

Quality steps (blank = recommended)

Prompt strength (non-turbo, 1–15)

Shift (1–5, blank = 3)

Seed (blank = random)

Shift changes how the AI spends its steps (the project’s own guides disagree on 1 vs 3 for non-turbo models — try both on the same seed). A fixed seed makes a take repeatable so you can compare settings fairly.

Custom sound (your trained style)

Use the AI song planner (helps “New from text”; slower)

A model downloads the first time it is used (several GB). Turbo is the quickest; SFT/Base/XL trade speed for quality. Pick the same task with different models to compare.

5 · Train your own sound

Upload your own music, and the AI learns its style. Afterwards, pick it under Advanced → Custom sound. A handful of clean, consistent tracks beats a big messy pile. Only use music you own or have rights to.
