# Steering Vectors — `tempo` (ACE-Step)

Steering vectors for the **tempo** concept on ACE-Step, computed via contrastive activation addition (CAA).

## Quickstart

```python
from src.steering import SteerableACEModel
from steering.caa import CAAController

model = SteerableACEModel(device="cuda")
ctrl = CAAController.from_pretrained("lukasz-staniszewski/ace-step-austeer-tempo-all", alpha=20)

with model.steer(ctrl):
    audio = model.generate(prompt="instrumental music", seed=0)
```
