Adobe has launched a new prototype of its generative AI tool
‘Project Music GenAI Control.’ It is currently undergoing development with the
help of collaborative efforts by the University of California and the School of
Computer Science at Carnegie Mellon University.
The tool, like other generative AI audio tools, is designed to produce audio based on text descriptions. But there is more to it too: the ability to edit the output without having to use a separate editing software – allowing the user enhanced control over their creation. This is something that is either lacking or not sufficiently supported in other tools like Google’s MusicLM or Meta’s AudioCraft.
Anyone who wishes to use Project Music GenAI Control doesn’t
have to be a skilled music producer. With the help of simple text prompts like “happy
dance,” or “sad jazz”, you can create a melodic piece that you can then customize
using the tool’s editing features.
Customization options include the ability to extend the
length of audio clips, create repeating loops, remix sections of the clip, and adjust
tempo, intensity, structure, and any repeating patterns. Repeating loops can be
of use for backing tracks or background music for content creation, while
extending the length of the track can come handy for things like a fixed
animation or podcast segments. Adobe hasn’t yet specified how long clips can be
extended for.
