Key Capabilities of Seed Audio 1.0

Reference-to-Audio Generation

Reference-to-Audio Generation

Use text, a reference voice, or an ambience clip as input, and Seed Audio generates audio that follows it end to end. Because it reads a reference rather than only a script, you can carry a specific timbre or mood across very different scenes, something that is hard to capture in words alone.

Multi-Character Dialogue & Voice Consistency

Multi-Character Dialogue & Voice Consistency

Define several characters in one prompt (their lines, tone and emotional pacing) and let the model stage the dialogue in one generated clip.

Music, Sound Effects & Ambience in One Prompt

Music, Sound Effects & Ambience in One Prompt

Background music, environmental sound and voice can be generated together in a single pass, so a finished scene comes out of one instruction instead of separate tracks stitched together afterward. The result is meant to sound mixed, not assembled.

Zero-Shot Multimodal Audio Creation

Zero-Shot Multimodal Audio Creation

No extra training is required. A single text prompt can define a voice's timbre and expressive style, and adding reference audio or one image makes the result more precise.

Soundtrack & Foley in a Single Pass

Soundtrack & Foley in a Single Pass

Beyond voice, Seed Audio can layer music beds, room tone and incidental sound effects under your dialogue, so the mix arrives balanced instead of needing a separate scoring and foley stage afterward. One prompt carries the whole sound design.

How to Use Seed Audio 1.0 Online

Go from a text prompt to a finished audio clip in three simple steps with Seed Audio 1.0.

  1. 1

    Describe Your Audio

    Tell Seed Audio what you want to hear in natural language: who is speaking, the emotion, any music, and the surrounding ambience. The more intent you give the model, the closer the first result tends to land.

  2. 2

    Add a Reference (Optional)

    Upload a reference voice or an ambience clip to guide timbre and atmosphere. This step is optional, but it is the fastest way to steer the output toward a specific sound you already have in mind.

  3. 3

    Generate and Download

    Generate the audio, preview it, and download the result in the selected output format.

Passing a reference voice makes it much easier to steer timbre and delivery than trying to describe every detail in text.
