INEVITABLE - DAW natively integrates AI-powered sound generation - FL Studio and ElevenLabs

[aidan o driscoll]

So - why I say inevitable is the existing big DAWs and DAWs in general HAVE TO respond to the likes of SUNO which as of v5 now has its own inbuilt DAW.

Here is the article on this:

https://theproducerschool.com/blogs/music-production/elevenlabs-fl-studio-how-ai-is-changing-music-production

"ElevenLabs, known for their advanced AI audio models, is bringing their technology into FL Studio's ecosystem. That means FL Cloud Pro subscribers get three months of free access to ElevenLabs' Creative Platform, giving you the ability to generate AI-powered voice, sound, and music directly within your production environment. This isn't just a plugin you bolt onto your setup, it's an integrated workflow. You can generate studio-grade music using natural language prompts, create sound effects, and experiment with AI-assisted production without ever leaving FL Studio. The process is simple: you prompt it, it generates, you tweak, you use it. The partnership is built on a producer-first philosophy."

Interesting times, I was waiting for this. I think a difference here is while Suno uses "scrapped", "Free" ( not really, hence that recent case tween Suno and warner ) material from across the net to "Learn" .. I think this partnership above uses sample packs that was already in recent times added to FL STUDIO ( Sort of an alt to loopcloud ).

I have been using SUNO .. experimenting with its DAW and its breaking of tracks into stems for export back to eg Sonar. I am dubious about the whole copyright area where Suno and the like is concerned.

But, hopefully the guys here at Cakewalk will be watching  and might already be looking at something similar for Sonar / Next.

As the article states:

"This sets a precedent and other DAWs will follow. Ableton, Logic, and others will eventually integrate similar capabilities because producers are going to expect it. "

That's the way to make DAWs  and musicians obsolete imo..

Thre will soon be apps which create songs in android  etc on the fly

for people who don't know anything about playing an instrument , composing or audio engineering.

Can’t argue with the fears. As someone who is (I’m told) a better than average singer, and a multi instrumentalist, I can’t compete with the studio musician level of these AIs. As a composer and actual songwriter it’s personally exciting and sad too.
 

I’m hoping now I’ve finally built a proper studio and because I have good recording gear and experience I’ll attract other musicians to come share with me, but, I’ve learnt it’s hard!.  And after 55 yrs of making music, I’ve got the right to judge, I think :)?.

I'm still using Notepad as my DAW, should I upgrade to this? 🤔
