soundpiece Reviews

Working with this software is really productive. I am very happy with my purchase

A lot of comments on some better options.

These are somewhat true but Soundpiece does exactly what it says it will and is good for really base or simple projects of several kinds.

I give it 4 Tacos because there is lots of room for improvement, but that's what we, as early adopters, are paying into. I look forward to the developments.

With other similar services such as Aiva and Mubert being around since 2016, Soundpiece is definitely the new kid on the block. This is reflected in its music generation quality and features.

Given you don't expect industry-leading standards right from its inception, there is plenty to love about Soundpiece and things that make it unique.

The most notable is how it automatically creates song titles for you, which you can later change. This seemingly small feature helps a lot when it comes to remembering what a song is. As a bonus, its created name is often entertaining. Shoutout to a Rock tune called "Speedy Gopher of Witchcraft"

It has a dead-simple interface that allows anyone to begin creating tunes quickly. You have three options to select from. The first is called Type which dedicates what you're trying to create whether it be some beats or an entire song. The second is Style, which is basically your Genre. Finally, there is Setting. It is essentially a mood you're going for such as sad or energetic.

Or simply click generate without messing with any of that and see what comes out. There are no limits to the amount you can generate and Soundpiece also offers unlimited cloud storage of your songs. It is a fun way to pass some time and a glimpse into what it's capable of, as to later try to replicate in your custom songs.

Also worth a mention is the speed at which it generates a song. There is little in the way of waiting when it comes to using this program. In combination with it automatically naming your songs, Soundpiece is one of the most seamless AI music generators out there.

After you create a song, you can then customize its length (up to 5 min) and BPM. A handy feature for when it creates something you love and have it play for longer without a need to duplicate then splice pieces in another program.

You'll find that there is a tendency for unappealing amounts of repetition in its generation. It is likely you'll be creating and deleting a fair bit of duds before Soundpiece creates a good or even fire track. While a mixed bag, it can create tracks you wouldn't believe weren't made by a human, and a rather talented one at that.

If I had one suggestion to make to the Soundpiece team, it'd be to separate the song length from the Setting tab and allow us to choose a specific duration. Trading out the ability to choose a mood just for the vague option of 30+ second length isn't worth it.

I'd say the lifetime deal is a steal. For $69 you'll be receiving an unlimited amount of unique music to do with as you please, whether it be a Youtube video, Podcast, or a commercial project. You have a sizable 50 downloads per day limit, but with the unlimited song generation in play, they will all be of vetted quality as decided by you. If you somehow manage to download that much in a day, the cloud storage ensures they will be available for you in the next.

This SAAS developer decided to not let people at least try out 1-2 demo songs and rather locked it with a paywall to try out the software. I created a Happy "EDM" song and the result was anything BUT edm. same for lofi.

If I was able to try the software before paying this review and a refund request could have been avoided.

Login /Signup Link:

The link is shared so when you select login/signup, it really takes you to a “signup” page. This gets annoying where you have to then select “Log in” again in a smaller font light colored purple font versus the huge SIGN UP on the same page.

After login:

You are taken to the homepage where once again you see “find out more” and “sign up”. You need to select the “create” link at the top left which is somewhat obscure. Or you can scroll down and select “create”, “inspire” which requires a monthly fee, or “develop” if you want to API access.

Appsumo screenshots:

These don’t match the actual settings you get after signing up. If you want those screenshots you have to subscribe to their monthly service called “Inspire”.

Appsumo deal:

What you actually get are three options: type, style and setting. BPM and length are NOT separate submenus. They offer BPM in an obscure way by allowing you to change it “per song”, but not as an option to filter out. Length is combined as part of “setting” so you can choose calm music or 30+ seconds… but NOT BOTH!

Menus:
- TYPE = 4 options: any, songs, chords, beats
- STYLE = 16 options: any, ambient, bass, brass, cinematic, edm, electronic, futurepop, guitar, lofi, piano, pop, retrowave, rock, strings, synthpop
- SETTING = 9 options: any, calm, energetic, happy, sad, major key, minor key, long (30+ sec), short (1-30 sec)

Overall:

You don’t get what you see in APPSUMO unless you purchase a subscription. The fact that they provide “subscription screenshots” is very misleading in my humble opinion.

The generated music is okay and many of them sound the same (probably because all of the subscription settings are removed in the appsumo deal).

However, if you want to pay $2.50 a month for a subscription on top of the appsumo deal then go for it.

Why 3 tacos?

I bought it because of the settings I saw in the screenshots here in Appsumo, if this was a separate taco it would be 1 taco for misleading.

As for the music, it is still 3 tacos because of the missing settings/options making it much harder to produce better-sounding music. The mere fact that genre, instrument, BPM, and length are all removed makes it very hard to use this app.

Hopefully, one day the screenshots in Appsumo will actually match what customers are buying.

I'm very impressed by how easily & quickly this tool can create tracks that sound nice, within the genres that you specify. I really like that I can change the length of the track after it has been generated, because this allows room for flexibility. The minimum track length is 10 seconds and the maximum is 5 minutes. I also like that we don't lose credits from tracks that are generated, and we only lose them if we decide to download a track. Soundpiece also auto-names the tracks for you, which I find helpful, because it saves me from putting my time & energy into having to think of a track name when I just want to focus on whether I like the song or not. If I decide that I like the song, then I can simply go back to rename it into something I prefer. So, I think there's a lot to like about Soundpiece.

There are only a few improvements that I would suggest based on my experience. My suggestions relate to adding more flexibility to the existing tools.

Here is what I think would make Soundpiece even better:

1) Soundpiece has the option to "Fade in/out" a track. However, I wish we had the ability to decide how much fading we want in our track. I felt that the fading was not enough, and the track ended abruptly.

2) It is not clear when a song is coming to an end, because it often lacks a conclusion. It doesn't give any indication that it's going to end. The beat stays the same and everything about the music stays the same, so it doesn't seem like it will end, until it ends in an abrupt manner. I wish the ending would sound more like a conclusion to the song, where you see it coming.

3) I think it would be helpful if we had the option to generate a track that can be looped. This way we can import it into another program, and just copy & paste the track as many times as we need to in order to create a longer track, which will all play seamlessly. Although Soundpiece can only create tracks up to 5 minutes long, we can make use of those tracks that are possible to loop by making them hours long, which would be great for projects such as relaxing music.

I think these types of features would be very helpful, because I'm not so great at editing audio and I just want music that's ready-to-go, which I can simply upload to play in the background of my videos. Other than these 3 things, I think Soundpiece does an amazing job at creating tracks. It's really a great tool, which I would recommend.

Hello!
We bought Soundpiece and tested, what can I say, the result was not very good. We use Soundraw and Mubert almost every day. Mubert is in a league of its own, Soundpiece is the closest thing to Soundraw, although the difference is huge. soundraw has a mini daw where you can edit the songs even more. This feature is completely missing in Soundpiece, also the choices of which genre to use are very limited. The sound itself is very monotonous compared to the other two providers and offers no surprises, unfortunately.
This opinion reflects the result of our team (14 people). Please do not be angry, that is how it feels to us.

with kind regards

The genres/styles of music is rather limited, but this has been great in terms of generating music background for my short YouTube videos (max length of song is 5 minutes). You can specify exactly how long you want your song to be, after the initial sample is created.

The 50-download-a-day plan is pretty generous. It seems like you can generate as much as you want, but you're only deducted credits if you like the result and download it. I'm enjoying this!

I've bought a slew of Appsumo products and normally don't comment. Maybe this is the first one. Soundpiece is ridiculous and I'm constantly shocked at the generated results. If you produce music, this is the cheat code to infuse ideas and samples into your productions. I use a NI Maschine Studio and incorporate the midi , from SoundPiece, with no issue. I'm just astonished of the ease of use. I'm sure I've made 4 complete songs off of a few SoundPiece creations. At first, I was quite ashamed, that I was using the "cheat code", until my daughter came downstairs and said "dad, who made that!" Me and my new music partner SoundPiece. It's to the point I have to stop clicking the generate button. My current process is the download the chords, splice it to my liking, add the drums, baseline etc and it's done. I'm so glad I purchased this and more, importantly, glad that the developer shared this creation. Incredible.

select chords, beats, or song.
and
choose between 13 genres
and
fast 30 second sound clips are ready to download.
or
customize the length beyond 30 seconds.

im sure you producers are paying for copyright or at least aware of the game.

additional $3/mo VST will connect to your DAW and let you engineer the music even further.

Very Highly Recommend SoundPiece!!

5 crunchy tacos

Really like the output and I am enjoying the music generated by Soundpiece:)

Well cone and keep going Pierre!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

There is so much to like about this music AI. The creators clearly know composition and this music generator has so much potential; just listing to the songs through headphones and notice the depth and how the instruments move through the stereo field.

Some styles and instruments are truly spectacular while others can use some tweaking. One out of twenty songs has this weird speaker distortion sound in the mix while the others sound nice. In the future I hope they can implement more realistic samples to produce studio perfect sounding music.

The features are simple and basic for now, which can be a good or bad thing depending on your music needs. The Pop Style seems to produce the most varied outputs, some are quite impressive. I love that they give you the option to download the song’s Midi file for editing and the 50 Downloads a Day is crazy generous.

The interface can use more “advanced” options for power users, but for now it works well. It takes the system around 6 seconds on average to generate a song. I’m hoping the creators can implement more of the request in their roadmap to propel soundpiece into a music AI beast.

Grab the deal now if you need royalty-free music for your content or inspiration for bigger musical compositions that would be “Copyright Free”. What a crazy good offer that we need to support. Also, remember to add and up-vote requests in their roadmap.

Highly Recommended... 5 Tacos

Still a little basic at this stage, as other have requested it would be good to have the option to create 'calm' music.

Also, with the music generated the songs seem to end slightly abrubtly.

It would be really good to see some kind of roadmap, a way for users to make and vote on requests.

Ok, let's be honest. This product is a startup, today it is a basic tool for people who are dedicated to marketing or anything that needs video production. But has enormous potential, is a great alternative for when you need non-copyrighted music for commercial use, even for youtube is a great idea. You just have to be patient and play with the tempo and length of the song, if a piece doesn't convince you try to create another one, the credits are not spent until you download the song.

This is a very basic AI music generator. There are only a few types of music genre (pop, rock, cinematic,...) but there is no option to chose what type of instrument you want. The only parameters of a song you can change are length and tempo. The resulting music is of poor quality, and like has already said another AppSumo user, it sounds like bad quality headphones or speaker. SoundDraw (also bought from AppSumo) does a much better job. The user interface is clean but very basic (like I said before, very few parameters and music genre). There is no mood option like in most of the others AI generated music platforms. There is ho way to generate a 3 minutes song at first try. The only options you have are 30s or more than 30s, which nearly always generates a 1.04 minutes song. If you want more, you have to change the length in the song options and re-generate it. This is the first AppSumo deal I will refund after less than 30 minutes of use :-( Maybe other users will like it...

It's a very interesting application: once a composition is done (it's very fast), you can modify both the speed and the duration - other modifications are planned for later.
It is worth testing several compositions - some are simply excellent.
Moreover, the count of the number of compositions (50 per day) is made only on what is downloaded. So the limit is very generous.

***

C'est une application très intéressante : une fois une composition réalisée (c'est très rapide), on peut en modifier tant la vitesse que la durée — d'autres modifications sont prévues pour la suite.
Il vaut la peine de tester plusieurs compositions — certaines sont simplement excellentes.
En outre, le décompte du nombre de compositions (50 par jour) n'est fait que sur ce qui est téléchargé. La limite est donc très généreuse

Great deal! Commercial use included for 50 downloads a DAY and on top a very quick and helpful support - that deserves 5 tacos!

We have multiple AI music generated LTD's and Soundpiece is new addition to it now with a difference that you can Export to MIDI, though we don't require this, is nice to have a LTD with option.

Soundpiece has potential, personally would like to see improved quality as it sounds slightly weak/cheap, would like to have it making more of an impact on all areas, more than anything like to have more powerful Bass, also would be good to have more options in tweaking as currently only have BPM and Length (unless I missed something 🙂).

If I had to describe the output currently; it sounds like a mid-range keyboard, is good but just missing that wow factor, perhaps over time this can be improved and enhanced in terms of instruments and options available.

Simple, working, nice audio. With 50 DL´s a day, not less.

Go, grab it :-)

I purchased this to try out and I can say it's...ok?
It generates music, but audio quality sounds bad like listening through bad headphones/speakers (like a mushy blown out music sort of way) except my headphones are anything but bad...

I like the "Calm" music but the piano sounds like the AI mashed a few keys together at a time and just sounds like a CHONGNGGGGGGGG...lofi sounds too hifi and would make me feel more aggressive and less lowkey. I couldn't stand to try out the other ones. Maybe if they sounded a little better/higher quality.

For now I'll keep it in hopes I see some updates, but if not, it's probably going into the refund pile and I'll just sit in Garageband and make some music myself.
