ComfyUI: Generating Images with Z-Image Turbo

Demo summary
A demonstration of setting up the modern Z-Image Turbo model, including the specific Model Sampling AuraFlow node and high-quality prompt generation.
Step-by-step
- Load the Z-Image Turbo model using the model loader node
- Add an 'Empty SD3 Latent' node and set the width and height
- Remove the negative text prompt node or collapse it
- Set the KSampler steps to 5 and CFG to 1
- Select 'DPM++ SDE' as the sampler and 'beta' as the scheduler
- Add a 'Model Sampling AuraFlow' node, set the shift to 3, and connect the model through it
- Add a 'Conditioning Zero Out' node and connect it to the negative input of the KSampler
- Input your positive prompt and run the workflow
Options
- Use 768x768 resolution instead of 1024x1024 if you have low VRAM
- Collapse the negative prompt node to visually indicate it is not in use
Watch out for
- Do not use the standard 'Empty Latent' node; the SD3 version is required for this model architecture
- The KSampler requires a negative input to function; you cannot leave it unplugged without causing an error
Tips
- Use a 'Conditioning Zero Out' node to safely disable the negative prompt's influence without breaking the workflow
- Use a large language model like ChatGPT or Gemini to generate more complex, detailed photo prompts for better results
- Adjust the shift parameter on the AuraFlow node to subtly affect contrast and sharpness
Highlights
“As you can see, it works just fine and we get a nice robot.”
