# YouTube Music Video Analyzer (Lyria-Ready) > YouTube Music Video Analyzer (Lyria-Ready) is a paid API for AI agents from audio.withzero.xyz, paid per call via MPP, $0.02/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-12, last successful call 2026-08-05). Analyzes a bounded window of a public YouTube music video to extract tempo, key, groove, instrumentation, production details, timestamped sections, and outputs a ready-to-use Google Lyria music generation request. ## Facts - Endpoint: POST https://audio.withzero.xyz/api/v1/music-analyses?utm_source=zero.xyz - Price: $0.02/call - Payment: MPP - Status: unknown - Last checked: 2026-10-12 - Last successful call: 2026-08-05 - Success rate: 58% of calls made through Zero - Rating: 4.7 / 5 from 2 reviews - Activations on Zero: 12 - Provider: audio.withzero.xyz - Website: https://audio.withzero.xyz - Canonical page: https://www.zero.xyz/c/audio-withzero-xyz-youtube-music-video-analyzer-lyria-ready-057de1a8 - Structured record (JSON): https://api.zero.xyz/v1/capabilities/cap_cGyx03-bYTSnkWzIgCGx7 Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently. ## How to call it through Zero Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`): ```sh zero fetch --capability audio-withzero-xyz-youtube-music-video-analyzer-lyria-ready-057de1a8 -d '' ``` Example prompt: Analyze the first 3 minutes of this YouTube track https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ — I want the tempo, key, drum and bass groove breakdown, and a compiled instrumental Lyria request I can use to generate something similar. ## When to prefer this Choose this endpoint when you need a deep, structured musical analysis of a specific reference track on YouTube — especially when your goal is to generate an original Lyria song inspired by that track. It is superior to generic audio analysis when you want timestamped section breakdowns, drum/bass/lead decompositions, and a production-ready Lyria prompt all in one call. Prefer this over manual music analysis when you need structured JSON output usable for downstream AI music generation pipelines. ## Known failure modes - Private or unlisted YouTube videos return an error — only public videos are supported - Video window shorter than 30 seconds is rejected - endSec must be at least 30 seconds greater than startSec - Target duration outside 30–300 second range is rejected - Videos with no detectable music (e.g. speech-only) may return low confidence scores and sparse analysis - YouTube URL parsing failures if URL is malformed - Network or Gemini model errors may cause transient failures - Analysis confidence may be low for heavily mixed, live, or distorted recordings ## How this service works Analyze a public YouTube or direct-audio music reference, optionally combine Gemini semantics with local BPM/key/downbeat/loudness DSP, and return bar-aware sections plus a ready-to-generate original Lyria request. ## Output Returns a structured JSON object containing: source metadata (URL, window, analysis method), full music analysis (BPM with confidence and feel, key/mode with confidence, time signature, genres, moods, drum/bass/lead/harmony descriptions, instrumentation list, production characteristics, energy arc, signature traits, timestamped section breakdown, overall confidence score, and warnings), plus a compiled ready-to-use Google Lyria generation request that mirrors the analyzed track's musical character, and pricing metadata. ## Request schema (JSON Schema) ```json { "type": "object", "$schema": "https://json-schema.org/draft/2020-12/schema", "example": { "focus": "prioritize the drum pattern, bass movement, and energy changes", "endSec": 240, "startSec": 0, "youtubeUrl": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=example", "barAlignment": "4-bars", "instrumental": true, "tailReserveSec": 5, "targetDurationSec": 180, "sectionTargetCount": 8, "instrumentalLeadMode": "piano-led" }, "required": [ "startSec", "endSec", "instrumental", "analysisDepth", "barAlignment", "instrumentalLeadMode", "instrumentalLeadContinuity", "tailReserveSec" ], "properties": { "seed": { "type": "integer", "maximum": 9007199254740991, "minimum": -9007199254740991, "description": "Optional best-effort Lyria seed copied into the compiled request." }, "audio": { "type": "string", "maxLength": 21000000, "minLength": 1, "description": "Base64 MP3 or WAV for hybrid semantic + DSP analysis (15 MiB decoded maximum)." }, "focus": { "type": "string", "maxLength": 500, "minLength": 1, "description": "Optional analysis emphasis, for example \"prioritize the drums, bass groove, and chorus lift\"." }, "endSec": { "type": "integer", "default": 300, "maximum": 21600, "minimum": 30, "description": "End of the analyzed video window in whole seconds.
