sound effects

Adobe has moved Firefly's Generate Music, Generate Speech, and Generate Sound Effects tools out of beta and into general availability on desktop and mobile web. The tools produce commercially licensed audio without requiring a separate subscription, and Firefly has also added Gemini Omni Flash, Runway Aleph 2.0, and Kling 2.0 to its third-party model roster.

Stability AI has released Stable Audio 3 Medium, a 2 billion parameter latent diffusion model capable of generating variable-length audio up to 380 seconds. The model generates music and sound effects in less than 2 seconds on an H200 GPU, trained on 1.28 million licensed and Creative Commons audio recordings.
