# MOSS-Music-8B-Instruct — MLX 4-bit

An MLX conversion of
[OpenMOSS-Team/MOSS-Music-8B-Instruct](https://huggingface.co/OpenMOSS-Team/MOSS-Music-8B-Instruct)
(Apache-2.0), quantized to 4-bit (group size 64) with the `moss_music_mlx`
converter from the community MLX port of the MOSS-Music inference stack —
the same converter and layout as the `mlx-community/MOSS-Music-8B-Thinking-*`
quants. The language model, adapters, lm_head and token embeddings are
quantized; the audio encoder is kept in bf16.

Weights are otherwise unmodified. All credit to the OpenMOSS team; see the
base model card for capabilities, benchmarks and citation.

Converted for use in a local macOS music app; uploaded so its
model catalog has a stable download source.
