Seed-VC

Seed-VC is wired as --family seed_vc for voice conversion (vc) and singing voice conversion (svc). Every route takes a source audio file plus a target voice reference.

Common CLI shape:

audiocpp_cli --task vc --family seed_vc --model models/SeedVC-MLX --backend cuda --task-route <route> --audio source.wav --voice-ref target.wav --out converted.wav

Model

Field	Value
Family	seed_vc
Model directory	models/SeedVC-MLX
Tasks	vc, svc
Default vc route	v2_vc
Default svc route	v1_svc
Source audio	--audio
Target voice or singer	--voice-ref

V2 Voice Conversion

Use the V2 voice-conversion path for speech voice conversion. This route uses separate intelligibility and speaker-similarity CFG controls.

Field	Value
Task	vc
Route	v2_vc
Source audio	Required
Target voice reference	Required
Pitch controls	Not used
Style conversion	Not exposed in the current C++ route

audiocpp_cli --task vc --family seed_vc --model models/SeedVC-MLX --backend cuda --task-route v2_vc --audio source.wav --voice-ref target.wav --out converted.wav

Common Options (use directly)

Option	Values	Default	Meaning
--num-inference-steps	integer	30	V2 CFM denoising steps.
--seed	integer	random if omitted	Seed for V2 random sampling/noise.

Request Options (use with --request-option)

Option	Values	Default	Meaning
duration_scale	float > 0	1.0	Currently parsed and validated but does not affect V2 duration. Legacy length_adjust remains accepted.
intelligibility_guidance_scale	float	0.7	V2 classifier-free guidance scale for source-content intelligibility; default 0.7. Any finite value is accepted and used in V2 guidance arithmetic.
similarity_guidance_scale	float	0.7	V2 classifier-free guidance scale for target-speaker similarity; default 0.7. Any finite value is accepted and used in V2 guidance arithmetic.
voice_anonymization	bool	false	Use randomized voice conditioning instead of target-speaker conditioning.
noise_file	path	empty	Optional deterministic noise input for validation. Legacy noise_path remains accepted.

V1 Whisper + BigVGAN Voice Conversion

Use this V1 route when you want Whisper content features and the BigVGAN vocoder.

Field	Value
Task	vc
Route	v1_whisper_bigvgan_vc
Source audio	Required
Target voice reference	Required
Content path	Whisper
Vocoder	BigVGAN

audiocpp_cli --task vc --family seed_vc --model models/SeedVC-MLX --backend cuda --task-route v1_whisper_bigvgan_vc --audio source.wav --voice-ref target.wav --out converted.wav

Common Options (use directly)

Option	Values	Default	Meaning
--num-inference-steps	integer	30	V1 CFM denoising steps.
--seed	integer	random if omitted	Seed for V1 random noise.

Request Options (use with --request-option)

Option	Values	Default	Meaning
duration_scale	float > 0	1.0	Stretch or compress generated duration. Legacy length_adjust remains accepted.
inference_guidance_scale	float	0.7	V1 classifier-free guidance scale; default 0.7. Any finite value is accepted; V1 disables CFG for nonpositive values.

V1 XLSR + HiFT Voice Conversion

Use this V1 route when you want XLSR content features and the HiFT vocoder.

Field	Value
Task	vc
Route	v1_xlsr_hift_vc
Source audio	Required
Target voice reference	Required
Content path	XLSR
Vocoder	HiFT

audiocpp_cli --task vc --family seed_vc --model models/SeedVC-MLX --backend cuda --task-route v1_xlsr_hift_vc --audio source.wav --voice-ref target.wav --out converted.wav

Common Options (use directly)

--num-inference-steps	integer	30	V1 CFM denoising steps.
--seed	integer	random if omitted	Seed for V1 random noise.

Request Options (use with --request-option)

Option	Values	Default	Meaning
duration_scale	float > 0	1.0	Stretch or compress generated duration. Legacy length_adjust remains accepted.
inference_guidance_scale	float	0.7	V1 classifier-free guidance scale; default 0.7. Any finite value is accepted; V1 disables CFG for nonpositive values.

V1 Singing Voice Conversion

Use this route for singing voice conversion. It supports the V1 F0 and pitch controls.

Field	Value
Task	svc
Route	v1_svc
Source singing	Required
