Infinite Variations with ComfyUI

[@zef3k]

dude unsampler is sick! I love that you're showing how some of these other nodes work and not just ipadapter, thanks!

[@knabbi]

"...and now she is pissed". Never had a better introduction for another useful comfyui node😂 Appreciate your work and your entertaining videos. I like your effective and pragmatic way of explanation. Thanks.

[@BoolitMagnet]

Wow. Another great video, so much info and all clearly explained. Your mastery of ComfyUI is impressive.

[@Deadgray]

Hahaha, "and now she's pissed". I would never miss a lesson with such teacher 🙂 Every time I watch something from you I have new ideas, thank you.

[@WallyMahar]

A WORKFLOW I DOWNLOADED AND IT ACTUALLY WORKS! OMFG! You don't understand how rare that is. As a pro artist but A python noob, you don't understand how many of my list that is at least a screen long of workflows that just don't work and I don't understand why. And I have spent hours and hours and usually give up Thank you.

[@pedxing]

absolutely love watching these work sessions. ❤‍🔥💡💪

[@Paulo-ut1li]

Saying this channel is the best ComfyUI resource on YT is an understatement . Thank you Matteo, please keep up the amazing work!

[@ronnykhalil]

Unsampler is an insane option that I can only begin to imagine its potential. thanks for shining lights on all these unsung heroes. the channel remains my favorite by a long shot

[@latent-broadcasting]

The unsampler blew my mind! It's amazing all the possibilities available with ComfyUI. Thanks for the tutorial!

[@ooiirraa]

Dear Matteo, I became your absolute fan 🎉 your videos and projects (ip-adapter) are generous and abundant. Every your product is valuable but understandable in the same time. Thank you very much, Please keep creating ❤

[@chadhamlet]

Wow! Using the noise in this fashion really makes it so much nicer than image to image. I've done some really great enhancements of some old 1.5 generations that kept the look of the old but dramatically increased the details with the newer SDXL models. I've never had an upscale do something this nice and not change the image. Can't wait to see what you've got planned next. Your videos are amazing! I'd love to see you tackle a workflow that is geared towards reusing a character, face, clothes and in multiple poses!

[@TheDocPixel]

You have read my mind! I've been searching for more information and usage videos and tuts for all of these nodes that are bundled in packages, that other YTers suggest to install, but use only one or 2 of them. Please continue on with these easy, to the point videos for advanced users. WE NEED THEM!

[@1E9L9I7J1A6]

not much to say other than thank you very much, great videos, im about to explore your whole channel, you definetly just won a new regular viewer

[@johnmcaleer6917]

'and now she's pissed' cracked me up.....Your vids continue to impress and your knowledge of such a new subject is amazing....Love your explanations and subject choices..Wonderful stuff again..

[@antiquechrono]

Short, to the point, and absolutely jam packed with information. Great video.

[@nawrasryhan]

The best comfyUI tutorials hands down, the amount of info, small tips, real experience that you show in these videos is unmatched and highly appreciated. Keep it up and of course Thanks for sharing!

[@ProzacgodAI]

I was playing with the unsampler, and went (total 20 steps) - unsampler(5 steps) -> advanced sampler (5 steps -> 10 steps) -> advanced sampler +add noise (10->20) and it produces really good variations. I can even supply it with a new prompt at the last step and it's really really good at integrating it and keeping consistency

[@latentvision]

I guess this is a situation like: give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach him how to fish and you feed him for a lifetime 😄

[@ProzacgodAI]

​@@latentvision Give the man the seed for the fish image and he'll have variations for a lifetime...

[@dck7048]

These videos are so consistently useful, thanks for taking the time! Even on subjects that you'd think are "solved" like image variations, the fine control can be a real asset when you're looking to generate something specific.

[@eagleeyedjoe0075]

These videos are fantastic, I'm learning many new techniques and you've introduced me to loads of new nodes. Can't wait to see the new IPAdapter you mentioned.

[@Renzsu]

Love your videos man, they're a joy to watch. And I like how you keep your examples relatively simple and straight to the point, no unnecessary fluff :)

[@crow-mag4827]

Found you after the release of ipadapter, your skills in comfy are amazing. Watching all your videos.

Wow, great demonstration! I have been playing around with combing noises for a bit now and I still learned a lot! I’m going to take what I’ve learned here and play around with all the different type of noise formats.

[@world4ai]

I have to say that so far I found all of your videos really useful. I would like some AnimateDiff tutorials.

📝 Summary of Key Points: The speaker discusses various techniques for creating small variations on an image using the SDXL workflow. They suggest adding low-weight tokens or random numbers to slightly change the image. The concept of "horror negatives" is introduced, where negative prompts with words like "horror" or "zombie" are used to achieve a clean result. Conditioning comcat is explained as a way to change the style or details of an image while keeping the same composition. Conditioning combine is also discussed for achieving more mutation in the image. The use of IP adapter is explored to guide the composition of the image, using different reference images to achieve different styles. The unsampler node from the confi noise extension is shown as a technique to modify an existing image by removing noise until it reaches the original noise at the first step of generation. Creating a batch of images with little differences is demonstrated using fixed base noise and the slurp latent node. The strength of the noise can be adjusted, and a new batch of similar images can be generated by changing the seed in the noise generator. 💡 Additional Insights and Observations: 💬 "There is no one-size-fits-all solution" - The speaker emphasizes that different techniques may work better for different images and prompts. 📊 No specific data or statistics were mentioned in the video. 🌐 The video provides practical examples and demonstrations to support the techniques discussed. 📣 Concluding Remarks: The video provides a comprehensive overview of techniques for creating image variations using the SDXL workflow. From simple tricks like adding tokens or random numbers to more advanced techniques like conditioning comcat and using IP adapter, the speaker demonstrates practical examples and offers valuable insights for achieving desired image variations.

Fascinating! Is this something like the Noise Inversion feature in A1111?

[@paulofalca0]

Great stuff! Thanks!

[@tomolson6169]

I noticed you never re-adjusted the values for width/Height on the ClipTextEncode nodes after you switched to the Unsampler demo. Even tho you started working with a different latent size. Was that just an oversight? It didn't seem to make a difference, your images still looked GREAT! I was just curious, I ended up using a node template for SDXL with primitives set up to quickly adjust the values to 4x the latent size as you suggested. Thank you so much for all your teachings! You've helped me GREATLY!

[@latentvision]

yeah I noticed after I posted the video. the size conditioning doesn't make much difference, it's more of a refinement, so it's not crucial, but yeah in this case it's an oversight

[@HideousSlots]

Awesome!

[@fgmanfredini]

Very Nice, really! Very useful, thank you. If i can give you a suggestion would be for a vídeo about dynamic composition using automatic masks. Example: generate a subject, cut it with automatic masking (Sam?) and paste it over a generate background and then a second pass to fix The composition and then generate variations of the background for the same subject or vice versa.

[@TimVerweij]

So much useful information! Thanks!

[@j_shelby_damnwird]

This and Scott's are the coolest AI art channels. Kudos! are these workflows available somewhere for reverse engineering? I tried to follow along but it's hard to keep track of everything that's going on.

[@latentvision]

[@j_shelby_damnwird]

@@latentvision thanks man

[@bwheldale]

I'm slowly absorbing these valuable insights, my favourite Comfy channel. At the beginning of 'light conditioning' I wasn't getting subtle changes they were drastic until I tried other seeds. Some worked for subtle changes while some did not. Unless I'm mistaken this light conditioning may be seed dependent. Just wondering if some seeds you tried weren't "subtle friendly"?

[@latentvision]

sometimes it's hard to see them but there's always a difference. Try to use the "enhance difference" node from the Comfy_Essentials extension. Yes, some seeds will show more difference than others, but it's completely random.

[@bwheldale]

My appologies, I was just about to edit my post to say my wiring to each text box was not from both "text_g and text_l". It's now all working fine and looks exactly as yours with the subtle results achieved. I'll also play with the extension as suggested, thank you for the tips.

[@ai-roman-ai]

I love your videos, they are the best! I want to generate keyframes and then interpolate them to create a realistic video in the end without any time constraints. Can you advise me on how I can apply your approaches to create the consistent frames, which you show in this video or other videos? For example, a dog plays with a ball in the garden. The dog must run and be in different positions in each frame, the camera does not move. How to specify the position of the dog and the ball in each keyframe?

Would conditioning concat be the same as something like Automatic1111's blend function or is it something different? Love these videos, thanks! Also: "a hint of Klimt" had me chuckling.

[@latentvision]

no, blend is another option. The node is called conditioning average.

[@danielmatejka1976]

[@kakochka1]

@latentvision Could you explain how you created start_at_step primitive (to control both unsampler and kSampler inputs) with just one click and the correct naming? Is this some custom nodes magic? And as an idea for future videos - could you share how you debug the content of different nodes (maskPreivew and PreviewImage aside) with int/bool/etc values in them?

[@kdesign1579]

[@alexgilseg]

This is really cool however I have a question. In The Video you set "end at step" to 0 and it keeps the structure of the loaded image. When I set it to 0 it just uses nothing of my loaded image and just goes by the prompt.. And that's what I thought the whole thing was, to go backwards in an image and then load from there so to say.. By setting it to zero don't you tell the workflow to ignore the loaded image ?

[@iozsoo]

Why my SDXL node hasn't got green pins on it? Also, my positive and negative prompts has conditioning, not string :(

[@GForcenuwan]

wow💡

[@generalawareness101]

For whatever reason if I put the int to 0 I get nothing and the closer I get to the sample steps (30 in this example) the more the image comes in.

[@AntonioRomero-x1e]

Ive watched this video many times trying to use one of this methods to fake an "unstable" animation. Animatediff evolved so quickly that it seems imposible now to make each frame in a different style...... can u make a video on how to make a video with animatediff where Ipadapter keeps the identity of the main subject but the rest of the composition changes style in each frame? have in mind that scheduled prompots are not a solution here. It would be very difficult to write a prompt for each frame.

[@cyril1111]

Thanks for the explanations! Super helpful! Now, Im a bit confused of the width and height of your TextencodeSDXL - it is huge! How come it goes so fast on your workflow, when for me it takes more than 5min with a 4090 ?

[@81sw0le]

I have a unique way of creating characters in midjourney. I'd like to use it as an ipadapter and pose it but I never get any good results. (very detailed, grotesque cartoon style) The goal it to be able to create a character sheet so I can animate it. Have you seen a way to do something like this?

[@latentvision]

I'd need to see the pictures. Technically it's possible, you probably need a checkpoint or a lora with a close style and depends on the kind of result and fidelity you are after.

[@81sw0le]

Do you have a discord so I can send you the images?@@latentvision

[@bobgalka]

I just have to laugh... I wanted to use some of the ideans from this work flow and started a new flow and started building my flow and almost immediately got stuck on on the pos and neg nodes... took me awhile to figure out that the nodes are called primitiveNode... so i added that but it looked nothing like yours.. tried different things... then I though to just copy paste the node to my new on... nope.. no text area to type.... How did you create those primitiveNode nodes to have string out and multiline text area? BTW I am totally enjoying my self watching and learning from your videos. ;O)

[@luiswebdev8292]

can you explain more detail why you're using the CLIPTextEncodeSDXL and not just CLIPTextEncode? Is that important to this workflow?

no, it's not essential. As I mentioned at the very beginning CLIPTextEncodeSDXL generally gives slightly sharper details
