ComfyUI Node: Pre CFG merge negative channel

Pre CFG merge negative channel:

The Pre CFG merge negative channel node is designed to enhance the conditioning process in AI models by merging specific channels from unconditional outputs into conditional outputs before the classifier-free guidance (CFG) step. This node is particularly useful for fine-tuning the model's behavior by selectively integrating information from the unconditional context, which can help in achieving more nuanced and controlled outputs. By leveraging this node, you can improve the model's ability to generate more accurate and contextually relevant results, especially in scenarios where the unconditional and conditional outputs need to be harmonized.

Pre CFG merge negative channel Input Parameters:

model

This parameter represents the AI model that will be modified by the node. It is essential for the node to know which model to apply the pre-CFG patch to, ensuring that the correct model is being adjusted for the desired output.

channel

This integer parameter specifies which channel from the unconditional output should be merged into the conditional output. The value can range from 1 to 128, with a default value of 1. Selecting the appropriate channel is crucial as it determines which part of the unconditional output will influence the conditional output.

enabled

This boolean parameter determines whether the node's functionality is active. When set to True (default), the node will perform the merging of the specified channel. If set to False, the node will not make any changes to the model, effectively bypassing its functionality.

Pre CFG merge negative channel Output Parameters:

model

The output is the modified AI model with the pre-CFG patch applied. This model now includes the merged channel from the unconditional output into the conditional output, ready for further processing and inference.

Pre CFG merge negative channel Usage Tips:

• Ensure that the channel parameter is set to a valid channel number within the range of your model's latent space to avoid errors.
• Use the enabled parameter to toggle the node's functionality without removing it from your workflow, allowing for easy experimentation with and without the channel merging.
• Experiment with different channel values to find the optimal configuration that enhances your model's performance for specific tasks.

Pre CFG merge negative channel Common Errors and Solutions:

WRONG CHANNEL SELECTED. THE LATENT SPACE ONLY HAS {len(conds_out[1][b])} CHANNELS

• Explanation: This error occurs when the specified channel number exceeds the number of available channels in the model's latent space.
• Solution: Verify the number of channels in your model's latent space and ensure that the channel parameter is set to a valid number within this range. Adjust the channel parameter accordingly to avoid selecting an out-of-bounds channel.
