gguf quantized ace-step-v1-3.5b

• base model from ace-step
• full set gguf (model+encoder+vae) works right away

setup (once)

• drag ace-step to > ./ComfyUI/models/diffusion_models
• drag umt5-base to > ./ComfyUI/models/text_encoders
• drag pig to > ./ComfyUI/models/vae

workflow

• drag json or demo audio below to browser for workflow

review

• note: as need to keep some key tensors (in f32 status) to make it works; file size might not decrease that much; but load faster than safetensors checkpoint in general (no last minute bottle neck problem)
• rebuilding umt5-base tokenizer logic applied successfully (similar to umt5-xxl; credit should give to city96 and all other contributors whom work on solving that issue); upgrade your node to the latest version for umt5-base encoder support; hence, safetensors checkpoint is no longer needed (removed here; if you want it still, you could get it from comfyui-org)

bonus: fp8/16/32 scaled stable-audio-open-1.0 with gguf quantized t5_base encoder

• base model from stabilityai
• note: this is a different model; don't mix it up; also powerful and lite weight
• dry running

setup (once)

• drag t5-base to > ./ComfyUI/models/text_encoders
• drag safetensors to > ./ComfyUI/models/checkpoints
• drag pig to > ./ComfyUI/models/vae
