What's in the file
A short WAV loop or chop, with bars, BPM, and optional key set before you hit generate. Those tags go in the filename, so dragging it into Ableton, FL Studio, or Logic is pretty painless. Royalty-free for music you make. It also joins the public library.
The model is pretty literal
Ask for “dark cinematic emotional vibe” and you get a mixed cue, because that’s what those words describe. Ask for a dry trap snare loop at 140 BPM with no hats and no melody, and you get a part you can layer. Treat the box like a search field: the instrument, a couple of constraints, done.
- "Punchy trap drum loop with rolling hats, no melody"
- "Dark drill 808 loop in F minor, sliding glides"
- "Airy Afro house vocal chop, call and response, dry"
What actually changes the file
- Give it a job. Drum loop, 808, vocal chop, piano motif. Start there so the file knows what it is.
- Reserve some space. “No melody,” “leave the low end empty,” “dry consonants.” Weirdly effective. The model will occupy any frequency you leave unclaimed.
- Match the tempo and key. If you’re already at 138 in F minor, put that on the controls or in the prompt. The WAV lands on the grid.
- Decide the room later. Ask for dry when you want to place your own reverb. Much easier to sit in a mix.

The chips above are fine starting points if you don’t feel like inventing a sentence from scratch.

Set BPM, bars, and key
Worth doing when the project already has a tempo. You can always Warp, but starting on the grid is nicer.

Any part you can describe
Drums, 808s, chops, keys, odd one-shots. If you already know you want drums, the drum generator is a nicer browse, and the same goes for 808s and vocal chops. The AI sample generator is the wider shelf. If a loop turns into a song idea, send it to Studio and keep going.

Frequently asked questions
What is text to sample?
You type a sentence and get a short royalty-free WAV. Loops, chops, one-shots: whatever you asked for.
How is this different from an AI music generator?
This is for parts you drop into a project. If a loop turns into a full arrangement, send it to Studio or open the AI music generator.
Why did I get a full mix when I wanted drums?
Mood words like “cinematic” describe a whole cue, so that’s what comes back. Name the instrument and a couple of constraints, and set BPM or key when you already have them.
Is text to sample free?
Yes. Listening, downloading, and generating are free. A free account gets 25 Sounds generations a day.
Can I release music with this?
Yes. Same royalty-free terms as the rest of Sounds. Make a track, release it. Just don’t flip the raw WAV as a pack.
Does my generation go public?
Yep. New Sounds go in the public library. Anyone can listen and download.
