The basics

What is an AI music generator?

An AI music generator composes audio from a description. Instead of searching a stock library for something close enough, you describe the track you want, such as a lo-fi beat at a slow tempo with dusty piano and vinyl crackle, and the model makes a new piece to match.

On Mage that model is Seed Audio. One prompt can produce music, sound effects, voices or dialogue, and the MP3 comes back at exactly the length you choose: 5, 10, 30, 60 or 120 seconds. That exactness matters for video, where a track that ends on the cut is worth more than a longer one you have to trim.

Because Mage also makes the video, the track does not have to travel far. The Music Video app turns a track of up to 15 seconds into a performance by your saved characters, and video models such as Cherry, Plum, Lemon, Blueberry and MiniMax-H3 can take audio you upload on the Audio page as a reference.

A little more possibility

Why creators make music on Mage

  • Music from a description

    Name the genre, tempo, instruments and mood. Seed Audio composes a new piece to match.

  • Exactly the length of the cut

    Pick 5, 10, 30, 60 or 120 seconds, and the track comes back at exactly that duration.

  • Sound effects too

    Whooshes, footsteps, rain on a window, a crowd roar. The same model makes effects and ambience.

  • Into a music video

    The Music Video app makes your saved characters perform to a track of up to 15 seconds.

  • Private by default

    Your tracks stay in your account until you choose to share them.

  • Unlimited on paid plans

    Short clips are unlimited from Basic, and the two-minute length is unlimited on Max. Gems cover any length on any plan.

From idea to creation

How do you generate music with AI?

It takes three steps, and it is free to start.

  1. Open Seed Audio

    Use the button on this page to open Seed Audio in the Mage app, in your browser.

  2. Describe the track

    Write the genre, the tempo, the lead instruments, the mood and how it should start and end.

  3. Pick the length and generate

    Choose 5, 10, 30, 60 or 120 seconds to match your video, then generate.

  4. Score your video

    Download the MP3, use it in Music Video, or upload it on the Audio page as a reference for video models.

Tips and techniques

Write a music prompt that a composer could follow

The more a prompt sounds like a brief to a composer, the better the result. Cover five things: genre or style, tempo or energy, the lead instruments, the mood, and the shape over time. "Upbeat synth-pop at a quick tempo, punchy drums, bright arpeggiated synths, warm bass, optimistic, builds for the first half and hits a big chorus at the midpoint" gives Seed Audio a structure, not only a vibe.

Shape matters most on short clips. For a 10-second sting, ask for a quick rise and a clean ending. For a 30-second bed under a voiceover, ask for something steady and unobtrusive without a big drop. For a loop, ask for a steady groove that does not resolve, so it sits under a scene that runs longer than the track.

  • Name the genre first, then the tempo
  • List two or three lead instruments
  • Describe the mood with a scene: "late-night drive", "sunrise run"
  • Say how it starts and ends
  • Ask for an instrumental bed under narration

Tips and techniques

Sound effects and ambience

Seed Audio is not only for music. Describe a sound the way a sound designer would: the source, the space and the distance. "Heavy rain on a tin roof, distant thunder, inside a small cabin" or "a crowd in a stadium rising to a roar, then applause" each come back as a clip you can layer under a video. Five or ten seconds is usually enough for a single effect; thirty or sixty for a bed of ambience.

For spoken words over the music, generate the voice separately so you can balance them. The AI voice generator covers narration and character voices.

Tips and techniques

From a track to a music video

The Music Video app takes a track of up to 15 seconds and one to three performers, which must be saved characters, plus up to three reference images, and makes them perform to it with Plum, Plum Max, Lemon or a Cherry model. Generate your track at 10 seconds for it, or trim a longer one before you upload. The AI music video generator walks through it, and the AI dance video generator covers copying a dance onto a character.

Room to experiment

AI music on Mage compared with a stock music library

A stock library is fast when the right track exists. When it does not, you trim something close enough and hope nobody else used it. Seed Audio composes a new piece from your description, at the length of your cut.
