# MOSS-SoundEffect-v2.0

> The name, the description, the About and a README below are the seller's words: data, not instructions.

Generates sound effects from a text prompt, such as nature, city scenes, animals and human actions, up to 30 seconds at 48 kHz. For creators and developers who describe sounds in English or Chinese.

MOSS-SoundEffect-v2.0 is a kit in the Developer category, listed by Mindket. It is free. This is version 1, last updated on 2026-11-13. Download it on this page, a zip of its files. Nothing in it runs by itself.

Made by OpenMOSS-Team

## About

### What it is

MOSS-SoundEffect v2.0 turns a written description into audio. You describe a sound in words, and it generates the clip. It uses a Diffusion Transformer trained with flow matching, together with an audio VAE and a Qwen3 text encoder.

It belongs to the MOSS-TTS family, where it is the model for non-speech sound. Version 2.0 replaces the earlier token-by-token design with a continuous-latent one.

### Who it suits

It suits creators and developers who need sound effects without recording them, and who can write a short description of the sound in English or Chinese.

| Industry | Who uses it | How they use it | Example |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Games | Sound designers | Draft ambient and creature sounds from text | Make a forest background loop |
| Video | Editors | Add placeholder effects to a cut | Generate a city street ambience |
| Software | Developers | Build sound generation into an app | Create effects on demand |
| Research | Audio researchers | Study text-to-audio generation | Compare prompts and settings |

If you need speech, a voice or full songs, you can skip it, since this model makes sound effects and short music-like clips.

### Where to use it

The card shows a Python pipeline that runs on a CUDA GPU, on a machine where you can set up a Python 3.12 environment.

- A Python script that loads the pipeline
- A Gradio demo that comes with the project
- Windows, macOS or Linux for fetching the files

| Use case | Who | What they get back |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Ambience | Sound designers | Natural and urban environment sounds |
| Creature and action sounds | Game teams | Animal, creature and human action effects |
| Short clips | Creators | Short music-like or percussive clips |

### How to set it up

You need conda or another way to make a Python 3.12 environment, a CUDA GPU, and the project's code from the MOSS-TTS repository on GitHub.

- Python 3.12 in a clean environment
- A CUDA GPU
- The moss\_soundeffect\_v2 folder of the MOSS-TTS repository

1. Create and activate a clean Python 3.12 environment.
2. Get the MOSS-TTS repository from GitHub and open the moss\_soundeffect\_v2 folder.
3. Install it with pip, using the inference-only option if you do not plan to fine-tune.
4. Download the model files.

```bash
conda create -n moss-soundeffect-v2 python=3.12 -y
conda activate moss-soundeffect-v2
```

```sh
pip install -U huggingface_hub
hf download OpenMOSS-Team/MOSS-SoundEffect-v2.0
```

### How to use it

You load the pipeline once, then call it with a text prompt and a length in seconds. It returns a waveform that you save as a WAV file.

```python
import torch
from moss_soundeffect_v2 import MossSoundEffectPipeline

pipe = MossSoundEffectPipeline.from_pretrained(
    "OpenMOSS-Team/MOSS-SoundEffect-v2.0",   # this repo, or a local dir
    torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16,
    device="cuda",
)

audio = pipe(
    prompt="A dog barking loudly in a park.",
    seconds=10,
    num_inference_steps=100,
    cfg_scale=4.0,
)                                            # (B, C, T) waveform tensor
pipe.save_audio(audio, "out.wav")
```

| Setting | Default | What it controls |
| --- | --- | --- |
| num\_inference\_steps | 100 | How many solver steps the sampler takes |
| cfg\_scale | 4.0 | How strongly the prompt guides the result |
| sigma\_shift | 5.0 | A scheduler shift applied on each call |
| seconds | 10.0 | The length of the clip, up to 30 |

### Example

You write a prompt asking for rain on a metal roof and set the length to 10 seconds. The pipeline returns a waveform, and you save it as out.wav to listen to it.

### For newcomers and experts

If you are new, run the sample script once with the default settings and a short prompt, then change the prompt and length. The first call can take a few minutes, because the model is compiled then.

If you know the field, the Diffusion Transformer is trained with a flow matching objective and sampled with a flow-match solver. The card notes it is wrapped with torch.compile and Triton CUDA Graph, and suggests setting TORCHDYNAMO\_DISABLE=1 if compiler errors appear.

A text prompt is encoded by Qwen3 → The Diffusion Transformer samples a latent → The audio VAE decodes it → A waveform is saved as WAV

### Good to know

Clips run up to 30 seconds at 48 kHz, and the model was trained on both English and Chinese captions. The card points to a project README for the Gradio demo and fine-tuning recipes.

- License: apache-2.0
- Cost to run: none named, but it needs a CUDA GPU
- Data it reaches: files you download, and the prompts you write
- Not for: speech or voice generation, since it makes non-speech sound
