Ok, I'm really not sure how I feel about this. I knew of AI's capability of generating non orchestral music but I didn't think the nuances and complexities of orchestral music could be handled by AI just yet. I was wrong.
I spent the last few hours prompting AI (Udio.com) to generate this orchestral film music track:
I didn't compose a note of it. I didn't arrange it, I didn't mix it, I didn't master it but I did prompt and re-prompt many times (almost a hundred times), created many remixes and edits. It not perfect/great by any means. Its a little generic sounding. There are glitches, there are questionable bow changes and weird musical choices among other things but overall, this blew my freaking mind. I have no idea how this works under the hood. But one thing I kept thinking about is its just a matter of time for developers figure out how to create sample/ai hybrid orchestral virtual instruments that can be molded exactly how the composer wants. And they will sound like the real deal, if properly composed, arranged and balanced of course.
This is wild. At this point I'm not sure yet if AI will replace composers in the future (that's a whole other intense topic) but I know it will provide them with amazing new tools to compose music with (not prompt but actually compose). Like how when full frame digital cameras made high quality film-making accessible to a lot of people. People still needed to learn how to use them and they needed to be creative and know what they're doing though to produce good results. New, more sophisticated and cheaper tools are around the corner! Maybe there will even be AI assisted composing tools (like AI assisted industrial design, AI assisted learning etc...). Cubase co-pilot?
But I could be wrong. What do I know.
Even the image I used for this track is AI generated.
