Welcome to my course. This introductory course is perfect for beginniners or intermediate user of music generators and content creators. If you’re looking for an intro to AI music or to get some inspiration for your projects then you're in the right place. I cover all areas of music generation and also touch on other content software services in order to complete a series of end-to-end tutorials, which are created around a multitude of content niches.
I'm looking forward to sharing all my knowledge and experience in what I hope you will find a consise, informative and fun course.
Artificial Intelligence (AI) refers to the simulation of human intelligence processes by machines. These processes can learn, reason, problem solve and in terms of music, is now completely revolutionizing how music is created, distributed, and consumed. AI-powered music software can now help with everything from improving your social media through to composing sophisticated orchestral music. This lesson explores the basics of AI music and what it can mean for content creators.
Let's take a step back in time to see (and hear) where it all began. From the early pioneers and their groundbreaking experiments which laid the foundation for future developments in AI-driven music composition. We'll finish with some music from a single line prompt which shows what is possible with todays music generators.
Some truths and some fiction about AI in music. We'll take a look at some common misconceptions of its positioning in the market and consider why we should remain optimistic.
Learn how AI composes music from analyzing vast amounts of musical data, patterns and styles to generate music based on that knowledge. We don't go too deep, but this lesson is a good starting point to start to understand the concepts of AI music generation.
Some background on AI tools on the market, plus our first music generation. This simple lesson will get you started using one of the many new online music generators, with some great results.
Let's grab a prompt from ChatGPT and set Udio to work. We'll look around some of Udio's core features including a brief look at the more advanced tools. And for fun, we're going to simulate a stand-up comedian live on stage, telling a joke with audience feedback. This lesson simply demonstrates the power of the platform and considers what direction it could take in the future. We also discuss terms of use.
Complete walkthrough of Suno from creating our very first music through to an introduction to some of the more advanced features. Also quick look at terms and conditions.
A list of 10 of the leading music AI generators, with feature summaries and links. This list will continue to be updated as more music generators come on line.
Why music AI matters to music creators and musicians. A discussion around cost-effeciency, speed benefits and competitor advantages make it extremely important for artists and creators to take a lead while they can.
In this lesson we create a campaign for social media by getting ChatGPT to build us a quiz. This is a real-world example that you could use to engage your audience, maybe add snippets of your own music, or as per this example we use a Canva template and connect directly to the data and then use Soundraw to add our royalty-free background music.
I explore some aspects of content design and data import in this lesson to complete the quiz from start to finish.
We start with a little text-to-voice in ElevenLabs, then head to Soundful and Suno for our wellness music.
Ultimately we generate a meditation/soundscape in 396 Hz. This is a solfeggio frequency, paired with the first of the 7 Chakras, the Root Chakra, used in ancient eastern holistic medicine.
We finish with a video avatar introduction to the session, a soothing voice-over guided meditation and custom frequency music. This lesson can be used as a basis for any type of therapeutic, meditative or fitness type session, from a yoga class to a high energy workout. Just adapt it to your needs.
In this lesson we create a fictional podcast, and then use Suno to add an intro jingle and background music. This was great fun to experiment with. Also we head to ElevenLabs again for some text-to-voice generation.
Transform your podcast with these simple and highly engaging techniques.
In this lesson we put Suno to work on a hiphop beat with an ultra modern feel. If you can get this right, it can be the essense of going viral. Getting a musical hook to stick in someone's head, means you're on to a winner. When we are done with the music we hop over to Canva to create a design and timeline for our video, then we generate an AI video with a highly visual and creative effect. You could try creating a bunch of these and see what works, and maybe go viral!
In this quick lesson we get ChatGPT to provide a great prompt for a wicked rock beat in Suno. We step away from the music for a minute to see how easy it is to transform your static images or video content for your social campaigns with Magic Hour.
Ownership of AI-generated music is still unchartered territory, and the legal waters are still being tested. We venture into these unchartered water to understand where ownership and copyright lies.
A few ideas around how AI music could be used in the future, from personalised music collections to advanced compositions or enhanced storytelling. The possibilities are boundless.
Signing off with a few findings of our AI music journey. Thanks for joining me and I hope this has given you some inspiration for your own AI music projects. Please also let me know if do create anything based on what you have learned from the course. I would love to showcase it here.
