AUDEDIT: Inversion-Free Text-Guided Editing with Pretrained Audio Flow Models (opens in new tab)

We introduce AudEdit, an inversion-free method for text-guided editing of real audio with a pretrained rectified-flow audio generator. Text-to-audio systems such as Stable Audio 3 already expose audio-to-audio editing by noising an input recording and denoising it under a new prompt, but this inversion-style route must trade prompt adherence against preservation of rhythm, transients, timbre, and long-range musical structure. Motivated by recent...
