Tone

Define a tone or style modifier text (e.g., “cinematic”, “cheerful”) to influence connected AI nodes.

Overview

The Tone parameter node holds a free-text tone descriptor that can be wired into downstream AI nodes such as Generate Script, Generate Image, or Generate Text. It provides a reusable, centralized way to control the emotional or stylistic tone of generated content across multiple nodes in a workflow without duplicating instructions in each prompt.

Configuration

Field	Type	Default	Description
Tone	text	""	Free-text tone descriptor. Examples: “cinematic”, “cheerful”, “dark and moody”, “corporate professional”, “whimsical children’s story”

Inputs & Outputs

Inputs:

• in – optional upstream text input (can be used to dynamically set tone)

Outputs:

• tone – tone text string, consumed by downstream AI nodes

  Supported Providers

Not applicable. This is a data-passing parameter node with no AI provider.

Best Practices

• Keep tone descriptions concise but descriptive: “warm, nostalgic, golden-hour lighting” is more effective than a single word like “warm”.
• Use one Tone node per workflow and connect it to all AI generation nodes that should share the same tone for visual/textual consistency.
• Combine with Style Guide for more granular control: Tone handles emotional quality while Style Guide handles visual specifics.

Common Use Cases

• Setting a consistent cinematic tone across all image and video generation nodes in a storyboard workflow.
• Defining brand voice tone for Generate Text nodes producing marketing copy.
• Controlling the mood of Generate Script output (e.g., “suspenseful thriller” vs “lighthearted comedy”).

Tips

• The tone value is passed as-is to downstream nodes. How it is used depends on the consuming node – typically it is injected into the system prompt or appended to the generation prompt.
• You can connect the in input from a Text Prompt node to dynamically set the tone based on upstream logic or user input.
