AI Music Generation: Compose Without Limits
Prompt your perfect track and mix it seamlessly into CutScene timelines.
Direct Your Soundtrack: Set the Musical Mood
Before hitting generate, channel your inner composer. What emotion should the track evoke – triumphant horns for a hero's journey or chill synths for a sunset montage? Map peaks/drops to your video beats; annotate timeline markers for sync points.
Analogy: Like scripting dialogue – music tells the unspoken story. Rough cut first? Compose to picture for spot-on timing.
Step-by-Step Generation: From Idea to Audio
- Open Music Node: CutScene creator → ElevenLabs Music.
- Genre/Mood Select: Preset (epic orchestral, lo-fi beats) or describe: "upbeat electronic with rising synths, 120 BPM."
- Structure Specs: Duration (30s loop?), intro/outro, drops – "gentle build to chorus at 15s."
- Generate Preview: Short sample first – audition against timeline.
- Refine & Approve: Tweak prompt (more bass? Less reverb?), regenerate. Download stems for mix control.
Video Demo: Watch Music Gen in Action – see prompts turn to tracks!
Example: "Energetic pop for workout montage, 140 BPM, driving drums, uplifting melody, 45s with fade out."
Mixing Mastery: Blend Beats with Video
Drop your track into CutScene – now the real symphony begins.
- Volume Dance: Automate to swell at climaxes, dip under VO.
- Stem Separation: Mute drums during dialogue – isolated control.
- Loop Luxury: Duplicate + crossfade for extensions – seamless repeats.
- EQ Carve: Cut lows for voice space; boost highs for sparkle.
