Key Features
- ✓AI Music Generation
I select mood, genre, tempo, and length, and the AI generates multiple complete, structured tracks in seconds—no musical skill required.
- ✓Royalty-Free Licensing
Every downloaded track comes with a lifetime commercial license. I can use them in monetized videos and client projects without worry.
- ✓In-Browser Track Editor
After generating a track, I can open the editor to mute instruments, change song structure, or adjust volume on individual sections.
- ✓Unlimited Downloads (Paid Plans)
On the Pro plan, I download as much as I want. This is a game-changer for agencies or creators with high-volume output.
- ✓Mood & Genre Filters
The filter system is intuitive. I start with broad genres like 'Pop' or 'Cinematic,' then drill down to moods like 'Hopeful' or 'Dark.'
- ✓Customizable Song Length
I can specify the exact duration I need, from 15 seconds for a Reel to 5 minutes for a podcast intro. The AI adapts perfectly.
- ✓Loop & Variation Generation
For any generated track, I can instantly create multiple 'variations'—different instrumentations and melodic twists on the same core idea.
- ✓Stem Muting/Isolation
In the editor, I can mute specific stems like drums or piano. This is crucial for making a track fit under a voiceover.
- ✓Tempo & Key Adjustment
I can change the BPM and key of any generated track after the fact to better match my video's pacing or mood.
- ✓Favorites & Collections
I save generated tracks I like to collections. This is my personal library for recurring projects or specific client brands.
- ✓Simple Search & Discovery
Beyond AI generation, I can browse a pre-made library of AI-created tracks using descriptive tags like 'corporate' or 'upbeat.'
- ✓One-Click Download
Once I've finalized a track, downloading the high-quality WAV file is instant. The workflow from idea to asset is under a minute.
Tips & Tricks
Always generate at least 5 variations of a promising track. The 3rd or 4th one is often the magic fit.
Use the 'Short' length filter first to quickly audition ideas, then generate your full-length version.
Mute the melody stem in the editor when scoring dialogue-heavy scenes; the rhythm beds are perfect.
Save your favorite parameter combos (e.g., Cinematic + Dark + 120 BPM) as a mental template for future projects.
Download the WAV, not MP3. The quality difference is noticeable in professional video editing software.
Limitations
- -The AI can sound formulaic; don't expect groundbreaking, Avant-garde compositions.
- -Melodic elements are often too prominent and can clash with voiceovers if not edited.
- -The 'human feel' is sometimes missing, resulting in tracks that can sound slightly robotic or synthetic.
- -You cannot upload a reference track to guide the AI; you're limited to their mood/genre tags.
