Length follows the lyrics
Same as official YuE 1. Each verse, chorus, or bridge is up to about 30 seconds. There is no three-minute cap. An optional “stop after N minutes” control is only a stop condition.
Turn lyrics into a song on your Mac
Write lyrics, pick a style, and YuE runs YuE 1 locally on Apple Silicon. You get a vocal stem, an instrumental stem, and a mix. Models download once. After that, generation stays on your Mac.
Get it on the Mac App StorePlaceholder link until the app is live. One-time purchase, HK$8.
Apple Silicon only
macOS 26
HK$8 once
About 6.6 GB of models on first launch
Separate stems
Play and export vocal, instrumental, and mix. Instrumental-only BGM still lets you pick a style.
8 GB Macs can continue
Smaller Macs generate one section at a time. Close other apps and stay plugged in. The screen can sleep; do not close the lid.
What you need
An Apple Silicon Mac, macOS 26, and a one-time download of about 6.6 GB of models through Apple Background Assets. The weights are not inside the App Store download. You are responsible for lyrics, reference audio, and the result, including copyright and likeness.
The model is YuE 1 by HKUST / M-A-P (Apache 2.0). MLX Q4 weights are converted by mingz2022. This app does not use YuE2.
