Top AI Tools in 2025 for Music Production

For years, technology & AI has revolutionized music creation, all the way back to David Bowie's Verbasizer in the 1990s - which combined words to spark new lyrics. Although controversial and hotly debated, today's AI tools are rapidly growing - and they examine extensive data from diverse genres to identify patterns in tempo, chords, and notes - helping music producers in all aspects of music creation.

We'll discuss various AI tools that artists can use to enhance audio mixing, mastering, and sound design, enabling them to create music of professional quality. Will you use them as tools in your career, or shun them? Experiment with any and all the tools you can find in your musical journey!

LALAL.AI

LALAL.AI uses audio extraction to isolate instruments and vocals, making remixing, mastering, and generating new compositions easy. This software enables users to extract vocals or multiple instruments from music files by track, separate them, and export them as isolated MP3 files. The tool is efficient for artists in a time crunch, as it supports various audio & video formats, and offers quick processing times.

The tool can effortlessly generate instrumental or karaoke versions of recordings by separating vocals, which is one of its most significant features. It's also great for precise mixing to isolate various instruments, including percussion, bass, piano, and guitars. The voice modification feature enables adjustments to pitch and tone to achieve desired vocal effects, while the noise reduction capabilities improve audio clarity by eradicating unwanted background noise.

Batch processing increases productivity by handling several files simultaneously, while improved processing capabilities improve audio quality. The API incorporation of LALAL.AI enables developers to integrate its audio processing capabilities into applications, enabling an automated workflow. Usability wise, the interface is user-friendly and intuitive, which we think is a time-saver. As for the pricing, the free plan is limited to processing up to 10 minutes. The negatives? Some users have complained about the lack of transparency on the pricing, and customer support has had some complaints. Try it out and see if it's useful!

LandR

LANDR is an AI-powered mastering tool that helps with control over stereo width, dynamics, and equalization. The Mastering Plugin guarantees high-quality results by enabling a seamless integration with digital audio workstations (DAWs).

The platform has more than 2 million royalty-free sounds for artists to choose from in styles like EDM and hip-hop. The "Selector" feature makes finding the right sounds easy, boosting creativity and productivity. LANDR also has a marketplace for third-party plugins, with some beneficial plugins like LANDR FX.

The site makes signing up, submitting songs, and specifying mastering preferences easy. LANDR is optimal for LPs or EPs because it supports batch processing, which fosters a cohesive sound without additional charges for album mastering. Users can save and repurpose their settings across multiple projects, allowing you to have consistency and efficiency across styes and genres.

AIVA

AIVA is an AI-powered music composition platform that simplifies original music. It supports over 250 musical genres, like Modern Cinematic, Electronic, Jazz, and more, catering to beginners and seasoned professionals. Its user-friendly interface makes creating music quick, you can customize style models, upload audio or MIDI influences, and edit and download tracks in various formats. The Pro Plan allows for monetization of your compositions by providing full copyright ownership.

Independent musicians and producers are using this tool for song drafting, and music educators are now using it to demonstrate composition techniques. AIVA is especially popular among film and game developers for the ability to create  compositions that are customized to specific themes. Marketing professionals and content creators are also using it to generate personalized background music and jingles that are consistent with their brand's identity.

Despite its powerful capabilities, AIVA may not always be able to match the nuanced touch of a human composer in complex compositions. The tool's dependence on pre-existing designs can restrict coming up with actual innovative creations. Even so, the platform's ability to produce copyright-clear music is very useful for users who want to begin creating original content. AIVA provides a free version with restrictions, while paid plans offer greater control and ownership.

Magenta Studio

Magenta Studio is a set of AI-powered plugins that Google made just for Ableton Live. Other digital audio workstations (DAWs) can also use the suite as a stand-alone program. Magenta Studio comes with five core tools that are meant to improve the process of making music.

"Groove" adds small changes to the time and velocity of beats to make them sound more real, and "Drumify" turns MIDI input into moving drum patterns. The "Continue" button helps finish musical ideas by guessing sounds that go with other songs. "Interpolate" combines two clips to make new music, and "Generate 4 Bars" writes four bars of music from scratch, giving artists new ideas. The "Temperature" feature lets users change how predictable the results are, which encourages users to try new things.

Magenta's DDSP-VST tool also lets users change sounds into different instrument tones while keeping the original pitch and dynamics. Magenta Studio lets musicians try out new musical ideas quickly and naturally, which speeds up and improves the composition process.

Loudly

Loudly AI Music Generator lets music fans of all ability levels easily create unique compositions. Musicians can customize their music by adjusting the duration, instruments, energy levels, structure, tempo, and key - as well as choose genres such as Electronica, Trip Hop, and Electro Dub. Thanks to an intuitive interface, this generator allows both beginners and experienced composers to experiment and refine their musical compositions effortlessly.

The platform's AI Recommender facilitates the discovery and creation of personalized tracks by providing users with music recommendations tailored to their preferences. After verifying their accounts, users can save and download their compositions, thereby guaranteeing a secure and personalized music creation process. Real-time collaboration and cloud-based access increase flexibility, enabling users to compose and modify music from any device with internet access.

Loudly is not without its constraints. Although the platform provides high-quality audio outputs for commercial purposes, certain users might discover that the sound quality doesn't meet the standards of a professional studio. And due to the algorithm's unpredictability, limited export formats may hinder production or distribution options.

Wrap up

The five AI music tools listed are making music production more accessible and imaginative - but they are by no means the only options out there! The landscape is growing rapidly. As you explore these tools, we hope you can use AI to grow both your curiosity and creativity in the music industry.
