Venice Music / Async Audio

Music (and long-form voice) generation is asynchronous. The flow is:

POST /api/v1/audio/quote      → price in USD
POST /api/v1/audio/queue      → { queue_id }      (funds reserved)
POST /api/v1/audio/retrieve   → status or binary audio
POST /api/v1/audio/complete   → finalize & delete media

For short text-to-speech, use the synchronous venice-audio-speech endpoint instead.

Use when

• You need songs, jingles, score, soundscape, or long narration.
• The selected model uses duration-based or character-based pricing and must be priced before submission.
• The expected generation time is long enough (> 20 s) that sync call would time out.
