This node loads a specialized text encoder for the LTXV audio model. It combines a specific text encoder file with a checkpoint file to create a CLIP model that can be used for audio-related text conditioning tasks.

## Inputs

| Parameter      | Data Type | Required | Range                      | Description                                                                                                                                                              |
| -------------- | --------- | -------- | -------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| `text_encoder` | STRING    | Yes      | Multiple options available | The filename of the LTXV text encoder model to load. The available options are loaded from the `text_encoders` folder.                                                   |
| `ckpt_name`    | STRING    | Yes      | Multiple options available | The filename of the checkpoint to load. The available options are loaded from the `checkpoints` folder.                                                                  |
| `device`       | STRING    | No       | `"default"`<br />`"cpu"`   | Specifies the device to load the model onto. Use `"cpu"` to force loading onto the CPU. The default behavior (`"default"`) uses the system's automatic device placement. |

**Note:** The `text_encoder` and `ckpt_name` parameters work together. The node loads both specified files to create a single, functional CLIP model. The files must be compatible with the LTXV architecture.

## Outputs

| Output Name | Data Type | Description                                                                                  |
| ----------- | --------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `clip`      | CLIP      | The loaded LTXV CLIP model, ready to be used for encoding text prompts for audio generation. |
