The StableCascade_EmptyLatentImage node creates empty latent tensors for Stable Cascade models. It generates two separate latent representations - one for stage C and another for stage B - with appropriate dimensions based on the input resolution and compression settings. This node provides the starting point for the Stable Cascade generation pipeline.

## Inputs

| Parameter | Description | Data Type | Required | Range |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `width` | The width of the output image in pixels (default: 1024, step: 8) | INT | Yes | 256 to MAX_RESOLUTION |
| `height` | The height of the output image in pixels (default: 1024, step: 8) | INT | Yes | 256 to MAX_RESOLUTION |
| `compression` | The compression factor that determines the latent dimensions for stage C (default: 42, step: 1) | INT | Yes | 4 to 128 |
| `batch_size` | The number of latent samples to generate in a batch (default: 1) | INT | No | 1 to 4096 |

## Outputs

| Output Name | Description | Data Type |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `stage_c` | The stage C latent tensor with dimensions [batch_size, 16, height//compression, width//compression] | LATENT |
| `stage_b` | The stage B latent tensor with dimensions [batch_size, 4, height//4, width//4] | LATENT |
