OVERVIEW

Find the perfect music and sfx for your video, with generative AI-powered audio file management

Audio file management with a twist: Stem separation and generative AI music

Generic cloud storage apps don’t specialize in audio file management. They tend to have limited playback controls and don’t search through audio file metadata. SoundGen Drive makes it easier to find the right tracks when you need to, with vocal removal, stem isolators, and AI audio continuation.

How does Soundgen work?

Type a description of the music you’d like to generate or select from preset terms and tap the prompt magic feature to turn it into a rich text description. Musicians with existing melodies can upload their own audio files. SoundGen will use the text description to transform the uploaded audio into the preferred style. Short clips can be extended into longer tracks in the same style. Users can import videos and write descriptions of what they see in the video, and SoundGen will create music for them.

What is the SoundGen magic prompt feature?

Sometimes it’s hard to come up with a detailed description of a music idea. To solve this, SoundGen provides a list of terms you can pick from. You can expand on them with your own thoughts or take your best stab at writing something from scratch. Once you have a sentence or two, use the magic prompt tool to generate a full paragraph describing the music you’re requesting in seconds flat.

How can I share or download my generated music? Is my work private or public?
