To generate music from text prompts using AudioCraft, you use the MusicGen model to process natural-language descriptions and output playable WAV audio. You configure generation parameters like duration, select a pretrained model variant, and save the resulting audio at the correct sample rate.

Yes, AudioGen creates short sound effects from text. It is designed to generate environmental audio, ambience, and impacts, allowing you to produce SFX variants directly from prompt text for creative workflows without manual studio production.

You need to install the audiocraft package along with PyTorch and transformers. This environment setup allows you to load pretrained model variants and execute text-to-music or text-to-sound generation workflows.

Yes, AudioCraft supports melody-conditioned and stereo music generation through MusicGen variants. You can provide an existing melody to guide the output structure and generate high-fidelity stereo audio tracks from your text prompts.

MusicGen is used for text-to-music generation, creating full tracks from prompts, while AudioGen is used for text-to-sound effects, creating short environmental audio and impacts. Both output WAV files but serve distinct creative production needs.

AudioCraft generation requires configuring correct sample rates to save WAV files properly and relies on pretrained model variants. It is built for short sound effects and music generation, meaning output length is constrained by your configured generation parameters.
