Big update for ACE-Step UI - the open source Suno alternative that runs 100% locally on your GPU.
New backend, better music generation, multi-language support, and experimental LoRA training - all in one update. Just hit Update in Pinokio and you're good to go.
What's New
Gradio Backend
We've replaced the old REST API with a direct Gradio integration. You won't notice the difference in how you use it - Pinokio handles everything - but under the hood this unlocks:
- Full feature parity with the native ACE-Step Gradio app
- LoRA model loading and training support (experimental)
- Better reliability - one less server to manage
AI Enhance
Users reported that genre tags like "pop, rock" often sounded like a ballad regardless of what you picked. We found the fix.
There's now an AI Enhance button right in the Style of Music section:
- OFF (default): Fast generation, your tags go straight to the model
- ON: The AI enriches your tags into a detailed music description and figures out the right BPM, key, and time signature
No extra GPU memory needed. It just adds ~10-20 seconds for much better results when using genre tags.
Multi-Language Support
The entire interface now supports 4 languages:
- English
- Chinese (中文)
- Japanese (日本語)
- Korean (한국어)
Switch languages in Settings. Everything is translated - creation panel, library, player, tooltips, and more.
Experimental LoRA Training
A new Training tab where you can:
- Upload your own audio datasets
- Train custom LoRA models
- Load them directly into generation
This is experimental - we'd love your feedback on how it works.
Player Fixes
- Play button works when no song is selected (starts first available track)
- Spacebar play/pause shortcut
- Skips songs that are still generating instead of getting stuck
- "No repeat" mode properly stops at the end
