Crafting Catchy Tunes: My Journey with Free AI Music Generation
Creating music is a complex and time-consuming process that requires immense creativity and skill. However, what if I told you that you could create stunning music in just a matter of minutes, even without any prior music knowledge? Well, thanks to the advancements in artificial intelligence (AI), it is now possible to compose beautiful and unique melodies with just a few simple steps. In this blog post, I will guide you through the process of using free AI tools to create your own song. So, let's dive into the world of AI-driven music production!
Step 1: Starting with Aiva
The first AI tool we'll be using is called Aiva. Here, you'll find a vast library of music options to choose from. Take your time to explore each track and select the genre that resonates with you. For example, if you want to create pop music, filter the options and select a pop track that you like. Once you've made your selection, click on "Create Track".
Step 2: Downloading the MIDI File
After selecting your track, it's time to choose the key signature and duration of your song. If you have music knowledge, you can select a specific key signature. Otherwise, you can choose the "Auto" option. Additionally, select the desired duration and the maximum number of tracks for a richer composition. Once you're ready, click on "Create Track". Aiva will generate five tracks for you to choose from. Listen to each of them and select the one you like the most. Remember to download the orchestrated MIDI version of the track, as it's crucial for the next steps.
Step 3: Importing the MIDI File to Bandlab
Now, we'll move on to another AI tool called Bandlab. Create an account on their website and upload the MIDI file that you downloaded from Aiva. Bandlab will automatically split the track into multiple tracks. To identify the melody track, play each track individually and find the one that contains the melody. Once identified, export that track as a MIDI file.
Step 4: Using Synthesizer V Studio
In this step, we'll use a desktop application called Synthesizer V Studio. Download and install the software on your system, along with a voice model from their website. Import the MIDI file you exported from Bandlab and add the lyrics to the notes section. Play the track and select the voice model that fits your preference. Add more lyrics if desired and export the track.
Step 5: Adding Vocals with Bandlab
Return to Bandlab and add a new track for vocals. Import the voice generated by Synthesizer V Studio or record your own voice if desired. Adjust the track position and synchronize it with the song. Download the final track.
Step 6: Mastering with Bandlab Mastering
For the final step, we'll use Bandlab Mastering to enhance the quality of the track. Drag and drop the downloaded track into the tool. Let the AI do its work and adjust the settings as needed. Once satisfied, download the final mastered track.
Congratulations! You have successfully created your own song using free AI tools.
