  • Exact lengths for cues
  • Songs with vocals too

Quick answer

Updated

An AI composer writes and performs original instrumental music from a brief. In Kenerate's Music Studio, choose Instrumental and describe what a composer would need: the scene or purpose (film cue, game theme, documentary opening), the ensemble (full orchestra, string quartet, solo piano), the lead instrument and the emotional arc ("builds to a hopeful swell"). You get a finished recording in about a minute, and ElevenLabs Music can hit an exact cue length. Output is audio (MP3; WAV/FLAC on Mureka), not sheet music or MIDI. New accounts get 25 free credits.

Tips

Better AI compositions

From making the demos above.

  • Name one lead instrument — it becomes the theme.
  • Describe the arc, not just the mood.
  • 'Chamber', 'quartet' or 'solo' keeps the ensemble small.
  • For games, add 'loopable' and keep the energy even.
  • Need a score? Transcribe the audio in notation software — the studio doesn't export MIDI.

In depth

AI Composer, explained

What works, what to avoid, and how the pieces fit.

How composers brief music

Film and game composers start from a 'spotting' brief: where the cue starts and ends, what the audience should feel, and how it changes. The same brief — purpose, ensemble, lead and arc — is exactly what steers an AI composer.

Uses

Where AI-composed pieces fit:

  • Temp tracks and mock-ups for film edits.
  • Indie games — themes and loops per level.
  • Documentaries and YouTube — cues at an exact length.
  • Sketches — ideas to develop in your own score.
