Musico

Musico is an AI-powered software engine that creates music based on a variety of input sources, including gestures, motion, code or other sounds. It combines classical and modern machine learning algorithms to produce a never-ending flow of royalty-free music in a wide range of styles. Musico provides a new way to create music, letting both pros and non-musicians create and apply sound that responds to its environment in real time.

Some of its features include:

• AI-Assisted Composition: Create infinite melodies, beats and harmonies with autonomy and responsiveness to user input.
• Augmented Performance: Apps like Impro let musicians create music in real time with intuitive gestures.
• Guided Sound Generation: Engines respond to multiple control signals for varied input.
• Auto-Scoring for Digital Storytelling and Media: Build next-gen soundtrack plugins for storytellers, game developers and cross-media creators.

Musico's technology is designed to be flexible, so musicians, media developers and other artists can tap into advanced music generation technology that's tuned to their needs. For example, the Impro app uses AI to create music on the fly while a musician is performing. The technology also can be used in combination with other software, letting control signals create music based on a user's actions.

Musico's products include:

• Engine: The software that generates music based on different input methods.
• Apps: New musical instruments and demonstrations of Musico's technology, including Impro and Song.
• Musico Streams: Control or listen to music generated by the Musico AI engine directly from the cloud.

Pricing isn't clearly disclosed, but some early releases are available for free, including Impro BEAT and Impro VST Plugins for Mac. For deeper integration or customization, you'll have to contact Musico.

Musico benefits from human oversight to ensure useful results. Its algorithms are designed to be adaptive and responsive, though, so the technology can be used in a wide variety of industries where music is important.
