Could you build this?

Partial The Mac desktop UI can be vibe-coded, but integrating and optimizing diverse cutting-edge generative audio models (YuE2, HeartMuLa, ACE-Step) on Apple Silicon Metal/MLX requires specialized local AI inference engineering.

What it would actually take: The stack involves a native Swift/AppKit or Tauri desktop application orchestrating local ML inference via MLX, CoreML, or llama.cpp/ggml wrappers compiled with Metal acceleration. The demanding part is quantizing, porting, and managing memory allocation for large multi-modal music generation architectures (which often exceed 10B parameters) to run smoothly within unified memory constraints on consumer Macs without crashing.
