About YuE2

YuE2 is an open-weight music model that converts written lyrics and a style prompt into a complete song with vocals and accompaniment. It generates an editable musical score in ABC notation before rendering audio, allowing users to inspect and modify melody and chords between composition and performance stages. The tool operates within a browser-based studio where users can add lyrics, select musical styles, and optionally include reference audio to guide new renditions. Generation occurs in the cloud, with results delivered as downloadable audio files. The model workflow supports three planning modes: melody-and-chord planning, melody-only planning, and generation without a symbolic plan. YuE2 also enables cover versions by transposing a melody into a new musical setting while preserving the original lyrics. The platform includes features for remixing and editing songs, though advanced editing agents are not available in the browser studio.
