Data Transfer Guide

Soundraw doesn't offer project file exports, so migration focuses on audio assets and workflow recreation. First, download all tracks you want to keep as WAV or MP3 files from Soundraw's 'My Creations' section. Organize these by project or mood for reference. In AIVA, you cannot directly import these files, but use them as audio references when creating new compositions. For workflow transfer, document your favorite Soundraw parameters (mood, genre, BPM, length) and manually recreate these settings in AIVA using style presets and customization options. Save successful AIVA presets as templates for future use.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I transfer my data from Soundraw to AIVA?+

Direct project transfer isn't possible since Soundraw doesn't export project files. However, you can download audio tracks and use them as references while recreating workflows in AIVA using similar parameters and style mappings.

How long does migration take?+

For most individual creators, active migration takes 2-4 hours plus 1-2 days of practice. Full workflow adaptation typically requires 3-5 days of regular use to become proficient with AIVA's advanced features.

Will I lose any features switching to AIVA?+

You gain more advanced features but may miss Soundraw's ultra-simple interface. AIVA requires slightly more musical knowledge but offers greater control. The core functionality of AI music generation remains with enhanced customization options.

Can I use both tools during migration?+

Yes, run both platforms in parallel for 1-2 weeks. Use AIVA for new projects while completing urgent Soundraw work. This phased approach minimizes disruption while you build proficiency with AIVA's interface and capabilities.

Is AIVA cheaper than Soundraw?+

Pricing is comparable at similar tiers. AIVA's free plan offers more monthly generations, while professional plans differ in advanced features. Compare based on your specific needs—AIVA may offer better value for complex compositions.
