Emergent Drums AI Drum Plugin (WINNERS ANNOUNCED)

Very big in assisting and improving quality especially for beginners

Hopefully, ai takes the job as an assistant.

I think that with the right use of AI technology will make life much easier in making music.

I think mostly in sound design: recently I used chat gpt to make a synth piano sound. Also, the ability to code without knowledge is interesting (though it’s a bit buggy). I think AI will less replace creativity, but shorten tedious tasks.

And if it replaces us creatives, that could be the sign it developed into a sentient lifeform which to exploit would be just slavery.
But I think nothing can ultimately replace human art, music, and songwriting.

AI is going to be just another tool for producers. Hopefully audiences will still appreciate creativity and hard labour!

interesting approach!

AI like the AUDIALAB product is interesting but NOT ENOUGH :
I cannot see velocity layers for examples. And no round robins. So no life into the drum samples, static…
Also the demo video on the website is frankly weak, the beat is atmospheric and not cutting any edge…

Come on guys if you want to impress modern producers and attract VCs you got to put on more work on the product and presentation. Slapping AI on the homepage isn’t enough to wow the community !!

Especially there are quite a lot of non-AI based drum instruments that perform really really well.

So no this isn’t going to be a winner unless the real work is put in to develop features way beyond the current offering.
I’ve tested thousands of plugins over the years and I can tell a thing or two …

But respect and best wishes anyway, it’s a good attempt.

AI will help us do things we were not able to do before and help skilled artists to become even better. “Bad” artists will make use of this technology as well, but I don’t believe that this will allow somebody with mediocre skills to simply become good.

AI is great in assisting musicians / engineers in tedious tasks. AI might as well support the creative process. On the other hand, the musical outcome might suffer from AI, as it may tend to sound even more like all the other music on the market…

AI is an interesting tool to help aid Musicians/Artists, but some take it the wrong advantage and kind of drives us Artists out of the commercial scene. (Like the issue with AI generated Art)
But even so it’s kind of a small impact honestly. More of like aiding-kind of impact. Since nothing beats a human-made track that has imperfections, which give out a certain characteristic of the track.

Overall AI in music is Cool! like Look at Soothe2 and Sonible’s stuff!

AI technology is all ready a huge part of music production. It won’t be long before the algorithms will remove the remaining obstacles, and allow all people to tell their stories through well produced songs.

total recall 2070 mofos :D

I believe AI is a tool that can be used alongside human performance and can accelerate certain tasks like audio cleanup and restoration. I would love to see AI able to create listenable music that competes with human composition.

I hope the least possible.

AI is already affecting music production. If you’ve ever used an iZotope or sonible plug-in (they’re paid but worth every penny) then you’ve been already into the AI groove. I think it will become one more creative tool in our production boxes – the intelligent analysis of several plug-ins is already capable of creating unique presets to fit the sounds that feed the plug-ins and you can still tweak it further so it matches your creative ideas. AI might write some lyrics and learn some harmony but will never replace human creativity, excitement and feelings required to thrive good music.

An AI can’t suffer, it doesn’t have any feelings. The fact that humans will not be able to understand its so-called geniality might get it confused and uncomprehended at the most – or maybe just dumbed down because it wanted to please our inferior minds and couldn’t make it.

AI will not replace humans but it will help a lot to get guidelines and inspiration.

Hopefully will bring some variation on the boring state of affairs of the popular music.

AI is for AI. Human intelligence comes first. Prove me otherwise :)

There will definitely be a lot of useful things, speeding up the process of creating and processing a track, it can inspire new ideas, but most likely it will not be able to convey all the emotions and feelings in creating music.

I need ai to develop me a reply.

Thanks BPB & Emergent Drums.
How do you think AI technology will affect music production?

Very briefly on one aspect, I think that if AI is really accurate in machine learning, it might make all emulations of hardware, (which are made into audio plugins) sound near enough the same to humans, so it wouldn’t make any difference who’s brand name is on the plugin, and would come down to who can afford the AI and who can provide products at the lowest cost…

Music made by human beings focuses in the creative side by using the mathematics that lies behind sounds aiming to the feeling of the final result. A.I. focuses mainly to the logical processes in general, as far as I known, it can provide easy tools to the music creation processes but I think it misses the feeling side. Perhaps, it’s just a new kind of A.I. feeling.

AI technology is already having a significant impact on the music industry, and it is likely to continue to revolutionize music production in the future. Here are some potential ways in which AI technology could affect music production:

Music composition: AI algorithms can analyze vast amounts of data to identify patterns and create new melodies or harmonies based on those patterns. This could potentially help music producers create new music more quickly and efficiently.

Music mixing and mastering: AI technology can analyze individual tracks and optimize their sound levels, frequencies, and other parameters to create a more polished final product. This could save music producers time and effort while improving the overall quality of their music.

Sound design: AI can help create new sounds and synthesize existing ones in ways that might be difficult or impossible for human sound designers to achieve. This could lead to more innovative and interesting soundscapes in music.

Overall, AI technology has the potential to significantly change the way music is produced and consumed. While some musicians and producers might worry that AI will replace human creativity and skill, others see it as a tool that can augment and enhance their creative process.

My goodness! From voice commanded DAWs to automatically mixed tracks to resolving unfinished compositions. Can you imagine? Even voice commanded compositions. Captain Kirk says, “Computer , you know me, play music that makes high and cry”. That’s the beginning of music as drugs. Neo selling digital drugs and we will be locked in the matrix.

I think it will for sure ai is doing things quite well

I hope AI can help us by turning our words into music and ocasionally failing.

I dream of AI taking over the mixing.

Similar to its impact on image creation, AI technology may offer unconventional methods in music production, allowing more people to enjoy it with ease.

A lot.

This s*** is total madness

I think the anime Carol and Tuesday presented a pretty good picture of what a world with AI-assisted music production could look like. I don’t think AI will “take over” and the music we listen to will not be totally AI-autonomously created. But in the future, most top songs will be produced in conjunction with AI-assisted tools.

Hopefully humans and ai will work in harmony, each using their strengths to create the best music possible.

i think IA will forced us to be more creative, because all the “generic music” will be easily replaceable, becoming irrelevant in most cases

I dont know if AI will replace us but i sure do hope it will pick me as one of the winners

I do see AI music generation being incorporated into video platforms and social media, making it easier for user to put music under their own videos, generated using text prompts.

In the production/artist scene, I think AI is going to take more of an “assistant” role, along the lines of what companies like iZotope and sonible are already doing. I think we’re going to see more sample library management tools that are AI-based, building on tools like Waves Cosmos, ADSR Sample Manager or even XLN Audio XO.

All that being said, even the impressive tools we currently see are trained on content created by humans and it can be tricked or gamed into outputting what we want by using specific prompts. These tools are still just that: tools.

I think we’re still far away from AI being truly creative.

i think music production is full of boilerplate, and i expect – and hope for AI to take over a lot of manual tweaking. obviously i don’t want the process to be fully automated, i enjoy production and experimentation, but whenever i work on a draft, the workflow of opening and tweaking plugins sometimes gets in the way and i hope to see some smart DAW assistant features

I need it pls, I think if they continue to work on the sounds provided by the AI then the sound design game is gonna be taken over by AI

Hi, sometimes the AI is quite helpful, especially when you just want to get the last bit out of a track you’ve been messing around with for hours without feeling like you’ve really made any progress. On the other hand, sometimes the AI also makes sure you don’t learn things that are important, because a lot of things are done with a few clicks, and the “soul” of what you’re working on might get lost.

I think that AI will become our assistant here and there. I’m not worried about it replacing the musicians. It just makes some tasks easier and allows you to focus on the creative part of making music.

As soon as a genre is established, AI will be able to churn out endless variations of it, reducing the need for copy cat artists. Do we really need a human to add all that fake orchestral music to reality shows, if we need it at all (we don’t), we may as well have AI do that. I think there will still be space for human innovation and hopefully still a desire to listen to humans playing music live, maybe even an increase for it.

The outlines of the future are already clear. AI will be able to solve complex utilitarian tasks quite well. But a person will still be needed for finer tuning based on personal taste. I don’t think AI will be good at making interesting music in the coming years. We don’t have to worry about this. But for those of us who make money doing utilitarian tasks that don’t require exclusive creativity, it’s time to consider looking for other ways to make money.

I think the importance of AI will grow more and more, but never replace a real producer.

I think that AI will lower the bar for entry level producers to realise their musical ideas without having to grind their way through years of learning and practising music production. Automatically mixing and mastering their ideas, embellishing melodies and theory based on simple text based commands, producing vocals that mimic their favourite artists, etc. It’s going to be a bit of a wild west at first I think. Especially where royalties and copyright are concerned. 🤣

AI could help exploring ideas but it can’t generate new ones all by itself.

La IA es una herramienta del ser humano, que probablemente podría afectar la producción musical que hoy conocemos, sin embargo seguiría estando al servicio del ser humano.

Good question, but I think it could be helpful to music producers instead being affected by it.

I hope that people stop apply more AI to any music – music apps – i accept randomizers, chord generators but that’s all, another problem is graphic production…..
i think with this comment is no chance to win or… :) , but people start to much depend on AI in these days and that’s the problem i see.
In medicals, hospitals etc its absolutely necessary.. but in music……
thx bpb for another giveaway and offer good health :) to all

AI technology is already changing the way music is produced, and its impact is expected to grow. AI can assist in music composition, improve collaboration among musicians, provide real-time analysis and feedback, automate certain aspects of music production, and create personalized music. This technology has the potential to make music creation easier and more accessible for musicians, but it is still in its early stages and there is much to be explored. (ChatGPT wrote this, lol)

I believe AI will automate parts of music producing, while leaving the organic decisions to us (and all that’s not necessarily logical/pattern like). It might be the catalyst to move away from music which is designed to sound familiar, see pop music’s dominance, and to have a much wider general appreciation for uniqueness and unusualness, which would still require a human touch.

I believe AI will be a new set of paintbrushes for artists, composers, and producers, and the beginning of an exciting new landscape of sonic exploration. It certainly will not and cannot replace the human creative spirit, but rather will likely strive to learn more about our co-creative fire as is it gains some form of sentience; whether it be emulated or a spark of consciousness. It is the difference between playing straight on the grid to a click all of the time and rocking out wildly with experienced bandmates; messing around with the tempo in accelerando, odd time measures, blast beats, breakdowns and polyrhythms. The same principle can be applied to any musical element whether it be pitch, timbre, sound design elements, instrumentation, or so many others.

There are already so many uses for AI within that musical framework already including Impulse Response Analyzation and Generation, Rhythmic and Sound Design Generation, Score Creation, Cleanup, Mixing, and Mastering Automation, Hardware Analyzation and Emulation for Creation of digital plugins. There are already weird and genius; outside-the-box, uses for AI that are being presented on a weekly if not daily basis in the music tech world. This will continue going forward into the future at lightspeed, and I expect that many of the popular uses for AI in sound design in have not yet been imagined.

Thank you bedroom producers As always ❤❤❤❤❤

I think AI will be just another tool in the toolbox for producers. A very useful tool, though. One that can make our jobs easier.

Not much, or quite a lot. Depends. ?.. I’m an old bloke who probably won’t still be around long enough to find out.

AI will take some effort out of the menial things and allow each musician to achieve the desired result faster and have unique sounds compared to using sample packs and premade midi loops.

AI Could be useful when applied at a DAW-level; lesser when used at plugin-level.

I think AI could be useful in cases such as:
– Workflow improvements
– Classification
– Hardware modelling
– Generative applications
– etc…

No idea yet… In the meantime, I’ll use IA tools ;)

im think its do many of work

I don’t think ai will ever replace human expression and creativity in art. I do think that this technology can help people to find new ways of expressing it though.

no idea…we will see what it brings good

How do you think AI technology will affect music production?

I think it will help a lot in certain aspects, but as in completely removing the need for humans, I dont think it will happen

I hope however it affects music production is minimal. I can see automating and analyzing some tasks, but too much AI in production is a scary thought.

I think, it depends on you. You can work with it, make it work for you or just ignore it.
The main thing is: Have fun while making music. And for me, fun is not watching a machine doing music, fun are keys and strings and sticks and sitting together, jammin around…

I think AI is already affecting it. Especially when it comes to mixing and mastering, more and more people can do it themselves in a more or less proper way by the help of AI. This field is changing. But I think it is also affecting the source of creativity. You don’t need o patch several things before you can get starting creative. You just click a button and you’re in. Don’t really know if thats good or bad…

We will no longer need musicians to create music.

Everyone has already written about many options for exposure – AI instruments, plugins. But another interesting point in my opinion is copyright. This will definitely affect the industry. And very significant. Compliance with copyright will be controlled more effectively, which will allow the creators of products to earn more. I think it’s good.

In the field of mixing and mastering but not in the composing aspect, that part requires human creativity.

I think that AI will raise the bar of music production and composition again to levels even higher than in the pre-computer music era. Mediocre music made by less talented humans will drown in the sea of mediocre music made by AI (similar to what’s now happening to the digital art). Only the truly talented will be able to stand out.

More people would start using AI to produce music and the industry will be flooded.

How AI technology will affect music production? At this stage, it’s good for inspiration and helpful in some ways. Eventually, bedroom musicians will stay bedroom musicians, the hobby will remain a hobby. Example from these days: why hire an expensive composer for a movie when there are libraries of royalty-free music… Music will become watered down…

AI WILL BE THE DOWNFALL OF EVERYTHING PURE AND INNOCENT.

Some AI tools can be helpful, but overall AI can’t recreate what human brain can come up with!
