To score a teaser with your own track, use a model whose catalog lists audio references: wan-3.0, minimax-h3, minimax-h3-max or a Seedance id. gemini-omni-flash-1.1 has reference_audio_urls disabled and Kling 3 is not listed among the models that accept reference inputs. A 12-second clip costs $0.90 on H3 at 768p, $1.50 on Wan 3.0 at 720p, $4.54 on Seedance 2.0 and $6.94 on Seedance 2.5.

Send the track as an audio_url in input_references, with a trimmed excerpt, not the full song. Source: Video generation and Video Router, read 2026-10-06.

How do I attach the track?

An audio_url entry sits beside any image references. Only models that list audio references accept it; others answer with a 400.

Does the track have to be short?

Trim it to the section you want under the clip. A 12-second teaser needs 12 seconds of audio, not the whole song.
