Our Favorite Machine Learning and AI Tools for Music Production and Mixing

Machine learning and AI tools have long powered our production process. While there are many new products out there, there is a small handful that routinely make it into our creative workflow. We wanted to quickly highlight a few of these that help make our process more efficient and creative. This does not include generative AI music platforms. We will talk about those in more detail, in a separate blog.

Our Favorite AI-Powered Tools for Mixing and Production

In-DAW AI-Powered Plugins

  • Izotope RX 10 Standard: Audio restoration and clean-up for mixing
  • Izotope Ozone 10: Mastering Assistant - Automating the mastering process

Stem Separation Tools

  • Izotope RX Music Rebalance
  • Fadr+: Highest isolation capabilities for individual instruments
  • Moises.ai

Voice Manipulation

  • Kits.ai: Royalty-free voice blending and cloning. Fun for creating quick harmonies, or to demo male vs. female voice. Quality is pretty good when blended in a mix, but quality artifacts are apparent when listening to the cloned voice in isolation.

Vocal Processing

  • Antares Auto-Tune: Includes advanced pitch correction features powered by AI to ensure natural-sounding vocal tuning.
  • Melodyne by Celemony: Uses sophisticated algorithms to analyze and correct pitch and timing of vocal and instrumental recordings.

Conclusion

The tools we've highlighted—Izotope RX 10, Ozone 10, Fadr+, Moises.ai, Kits.ai, Antares Auto-Tune, and Melodyne—are just a few examples of how technology can enhance your workflow, making the process more efficient and opening up new creative possibilities.

However, this is just the tip of the iceberg. The world of AI and machine learning in music is vast and ever-expanding. By embracing these advancements, you can unlock new levels of creativity and efficiency in your production process. Don't be afraid to explore and experiment with new tools and technologies. Each new tool has the potential to add a unique dimension to your music, helping you to innovate and stay ahead in an ever-competitive industry.

Stay curious and keep pushing the boundaries of what's possible with music technology.
