Demos

The demos below were generated with yue2-3b-bf16.gguf and yue2-vae-f32.gguf . The _q8.wav comparison files were generated with yue2-3b-q8_0.gguf and yue2-vae-f16.gguf using the same prompts and seeds. Replace <AUDIOCPP> with your audio.cpp checkout and <YUE2_GGUF> with this downloaded GGUF repo directory.

WebUI demo video

Sorry if the UI is a bit rough. I’m not a UI person and probably messed up some of the nice community UI work while wiring this up.

This WebUI demo uses the official Yue2 examples/tonight-awake.json test case.
