Step-Audio-EditX is an open-source, 3 billion-parameter audio model from StepFun AI designed to make expressive and precise editing of speech and audio as easy as text editing. Rather than treating audio editing as low-level waveform manipulation, this model converts speech into a sequence of discrete “audio tokens” (via a dual-codebook tokenizer) — combining a linguistic token stream and a semantic (prosody/emotion/style) token stream — thereby abstracting audio editing into high-level token operations. ...

We introduce a language modeling approach for text to speech synthesis (TTS). Specifically, we train a neural codec language model (called VALL-E) using discrete codes derived from an off-the-shelf neural audio codec model, and regard TTS as a conditional language modeling task rather than continuous signal regression as in previous work. During the pre-training stage, we scale up the TTS training data to 60K hours of English speech which is hundreds of times larger than existing systems....
