Stable Audio 3.0 Medium is the larger of the two open-weights sizes in Stability AI's Stable Audio 3 family, released on 20 May 2026. It is a 1.4-billion-parameter latent diffusion transformer that generates 44.1 kHz stereo music and sound effects up to 6 min 20 s, with inpainting and continuation of existing recordings. Stability says it runs on consumer hardware: a few seconds on a MacBook Pro M4 and under 2 s on an H200. It was trained on licensed and Creative Commons audio. model card; paper; launch post
