9.7 – Generation AI Music In Soundraw Lesson

Lesson Overview

Soundraw provides an accessible way to generate original music without traditional music production experience. The platform uses AI to build tracks based on your chosen parameters—such as duration, tempo, mood, genre, and theme. This flexibility allows users to easily experiment with different musical styles and moods, refining each piece until it fits its intended purpose. The lesson will cover the straightforward workflow: setting basic song details, selecting moods or genres, and hearing immediate feedback. You'll also see how to incrementally modify tracks by adjusting elements like “energy” or included instruments, letting your personal preferences guide the creative process.

This approach suits anyone who needs background music but lacks the time or resources to compose or license expensive tracks. In contexts such as digital marketing, content creation, or education, being able to quickly produce and tailor music to a project can enhance production quality and engagement. For example, a YouTube creator might need a 60-second energetic hip-hop track, while a marketer might look for ambient music for an explainer video. Soundraw’s method keeps music-making fast and flexible.

Who This Is For

If you need instantly generated music tracks but don’t have a music production background, this lesson is for you. You’ll benefit if you are:

• Content creators searching for custom, copyright-friendly music
• Video editors seeking mood-matching soundtracks
• Marketers looking to enhance video ads with the right atmosphere
• Educators wanting to add engaging background music for lessons
• Small business owners producing in-house media
• Creative hobbyists wanting to try digital music generation

Where This Fits in a Workflow

Generating AI music in Soundraw is an early step in producing multimedia content. You’d typically use this process after you know the tone or emotion you want but before you finalize your video, ad, or presentation. For example, once you’ve scripted and edited your visuals, you can use Soundraw to build a soundtrack matching your project’s length and mood. If feedback calls for a different style or tempo, you can quickly regenerate tracks with new parameters, without starting from scratch. This flexible placement makes Soundraw a helpful tool in a creator’s toolkit, streamlining how background music is sourced and edited for different types of content.

Technical & Workflow Benefits

Traditional music customization often means manually editing royalty-free tracks or struggling through complex audio software. Soundraw speeds up the process by letting you generate tracks on demand, complete with genre, tempo, and instrument selection. Changing a parameter—like removing piano or switching from “normal” to “laid-back” mood—is immediate, with the music regenerating accordingly.

If you previously spent hours searching for the perfect track or editing long files to fit your project, Soundraw condenses this to a few clicks. For example, a teacher building an educational video can experiment with themes (like “uplifting” or “funny”), make quick edits based on student feedback, and have a new track ready in moments. The ability to preview the music directly with video also prevents mismatches between visuals and audio, ensuring higher output quality and saving editing time.

Practice Exercise

1. Try generating a custom track for a real project or imagined scenario.
2. Pick a video you’ve worked on recently, or imagine you’re creating a short ad or presentation.
3. Open Soundraw and create a music track:
   1. Set the length to match your project (1–3 minutes).
   2. Choose a genre and mood that complements your video’s style.
   3. Adjust energy blocks and remove an instrument to see how your changes affect the track.
4. Use the video preview feature to check how the music fits with your visuals.

Reflect: Does the AI-generated track enhance your project? If not, try varying a parameter and notice how the feel changes.
