MiniMax introduces Music 3.0, a next-generation music generation model that composes, arranges, performs, and produces a complete song from a creative concept and optional lyrics in a single generation. The model features a redesigned pipeline with a Hybrid-LM architecture (8B Global LLM + 0.6B Local LLM), multi-layer RVQ tokenizer, and flow-matching synthesis for improved fidelity and structural coherence.
