# LTXVAudioVAELoader - ComfyUI Built-in Node Documentation

> Complete documentation for the LTXVAudioVAELoader node in ComfyUI. Learn its inputs, outputs, parameters and usage.

The LTXV Audio VAE Loader node loads a pre-trained Audio Variational Autoencoder (VAE) model from a checkpoint file. It reads the specified checkpoint, loads its weights and metadata, and prepares the model for use in audio generation or processing workflows within ComfyUI.

## Inputs

| Parameter   | Description                                                                                                                       | Data Type | Required | Range                                                                            |
| ----------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | --------- | -------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `ckpt_name` | Audio VAE checkpoint to load. This is a dropdown list populated with all the files found in your ComfyUI `checkpoints` directory. | STRING    | Yes      | All files in the `checkpoints` folder.<br />*Example: `"audio_vae.safetensors"`* |

## Outputs

| Output Name | Description                                                                                            | Data Type |
