ElevenLabs released SFX v3, a new sound effects model available in ElevenCreative and through ElevenAPI, which it says handles prompts describing multiple sounds more reliably than SFX v2. The company says the model generates music and vocals more convincingly and produces cleaner, more natural audio in benchmark testing. In ElevenCreative, users can create sound effects from a text prompt in Flows, the Sound Effects tab, Studio, and the Music Editor, and the model is also available in the ElevenLabs mobile app. ElevenLabs says SFX v3 is less likely to produce unwanted artifacts on sounds such as gongs, chimes, and whistles, preserving the character of the requested sound. Developers can access SFX v3 through ElevenAPI to bring sound effects generation into their own products and workflows.

## Evidence

Verbatim from https://elevenlabs.io/blog/sound-effects-v3:

> Big scenes rarely come down to one sound. A football clip might need a crowd cheering, a ball dropping, and the same crowd booing seconds later. Until now, getting all of that from one prompt took trial and error.

> Introducing SFX v3 in ElevenCreative and ElevenAPI
> 
> SFX v3, the newest ElevenLabs sound effects model, is built for that. It handles prompts that describe multiple sounds more reliably, generates music and vocals more convincingly, and produces cleaner, more natural audio than SFX v2 in benchmark testing. It’s available now in ElevenCreative and through ElevenAPI.
> 
> In ElevenCreative, you can create original sound effects from a text prompt in Flows, the Sound Effects tab, Studio, and the Music Editor.
> 
> Better handling of multiple sounds in one prompt
> 
> SFX v3 is better at following several instructions within a single prompt. That means more of the sounds you describe make it into the generated audio. Describe the sounds that make up your scene and hear how they work together.
> 
> For creators working on videos, games, and other projects, this makes it easier to explore a scene’s sound as a whole.
