ComfyUI, without the noodles? Stable Swarm for those who want a simpler interface for your AI Art

hey everybody Scott thatwe here today we're going to look at stable swarm so this is the UI that if you're not into comfy and you're like I just don't want to look at those graphs I hate noodles whatever whatever is going on with it and you don't like comfy and you want to stick with automatic 1111 simply for that reason this is your solution so this allows you to take a comfy graph and have a different front end for it so it's very simple all you do is load in the comfy graph that you want and it'll expose certain parts so I'm going to talk you through kind of how this works now there's a lot to this product so initially it just looks like it's just a simple UI but it other things like you can talk to other endpoints so if you have a different computer in your house that's running all of your comfy back end for example this can be your front end you can also use it against other servers and then it has a lot of tools too like doing XY plots if you want to do a comparison of different values and it'll create a separate web page just to look at that so it's very cool so I'm going to give you a quick introduction to that and see what you think okay so here you go a standard comfy graph just like we're all used to looking at and there's nothing really special about it I do have uh the inspir pack Global seed here just cuz I like that that control so I don't have to fix or randomize different controls different things but it's pretty basic this is my standard sdxl template here uh that you guys can get in the community area on YouTube here for my channel again thank you for your support I just go ahead and grab that and it's kind of a messy messy graph it's a thing that everybody hates about uh about this product is there's noodles freaking everywhere and this is this is interesting because we do an upscale by four times and then we set it to a quarter of its size and then we upscale it again so this is called a super resolution and it gives a lot more detail to the ending image so why do you care like what's the big deal well the neat thing is we can go to the generate Tab and here is all you see you see the positive prompt you see any of these parameters you like to play with the steps of the CFG or something like that or you want to change your sampler or you want to change the scheduler whatever you can do all that from right here so you don't have to stare at those noodles if you don't want to and then down here under Advanced are all the other controls or nodes that are on that page or in this graph so if you're looking for something specific like say the D noise here for this first K sampler if we go back over here we can find the K sampler and sure enough here's the denoise so we can go ahead and change that right from here so if you're a person who really doesn't like the node interface once you get your node graph done you can just use this and again this works a lot like comfy in all the other respects so if you hide this you're asking yourself how do you make more of these controls available and that's actually pretty simple you just simply use Primitives so for example if we want to show Deno up at the top let's go ahead and add denoise as something that is an input so now it's here I just pull this out and I'm going to go add node I have a whole lot of nodes here so don't worry about that but you're going to find utils and you're going to go down and find primitive and here I'm just going to rename it because it does pay attention to that noise now if I go go ahead and go back now there's actually a menu up here that I had minimized for this when you click use this workflow in the generate tab if you go back you'll notice that now D noise is now one of the interface items that you see so I usually collapse this because I don't typically change those things those are things that once they're set they're good but I might change the noise I might play with other things like this so this gives you the option to take your huge graph and make it into a nice user interface there's also a server tab here and in here you can see that I'm running it locally here and if you had this elsewhere in your house another laptop or another machine you could certainly use it this way now there's a lot of other places where you can put your comfy back in and you can use this as the front end there's other options too for Server configurations and so on now if you're a person who loves settings under user you're going to see that there are some user settings here but if you're really big into them like the automatic 1111 fans under parameter configurations you have everything you could dream of and there's a lot of really neat things in here too like the free U and uh other aspects like Dynamic thresholding if you want a really high CFG but want it to not be all overbaked you can fix that down here too so so there's a lot of other options if you don't want to put them in the graph you can control it this way I tend not to use these however I do tend to like to uh get rid of the prompt every so often uh and you'll notice that too I have moved some of these things like images list to Advanced versions so when you're ready to go you just click generate like you would normally and it would go ahead and show you the process as it's unfolding there some other tools too under quick tool so if you want to interrupt the session and so on if you are in the middle of generating can always use this interrupt button here I'm not sure why mine is not red but normally this is red so you can see it if you want to disable the custom workflow you can do that from down here if you want to pick a different model you can use the drop down here so there's a lot of really nice things that are right in here you also have the ability to look through all your models if you have other models if you have luras you can look through those in different embeddings control Nets and even tools here under Tools there's actually a really great grid generator which will generate a grid different values if you want to X on one axis and y and another it'll go ahead and create a separate website that you can go to to watch that being created and that's pretty great because then it's not a small interface overall it's a fantastic product and I'm really excited to finally get a chance to show it to you so if you're wanting to get away from your comfy graph here's your opportunity to finally do so hey everybody thanks for watching the video I will put the graph in the community area uh for everyone who sponsors the channel so really appreciate you guys thank you so much for helping me out I couldn't do this without you and I really appreciate you so I'm going to be gone this next Saturday so I will not be around for a live stream but will be picking it up the next week after that so I try and stream at 10:30 or so on Saturday morning's Central Standard Time Milwaukee time Chicago time so I will see you next Saturday and I'll get some more videos out very quickly Everybody Take Care stay safe and I'll catch youall next time
