Limitations
- No vocals, instrumentals only
- Free plan is one MP3 a month and cannot be used commercially
- The Music Creator licence is capped by audience reach, so growth forces a higher plan
Soundverse
Strengths
- Generation, stem separation, editing and mastering happen in one browser studio
- API returns the finished track and its separated stems with a commercial license
- Artist DNAs license real artist sounds and can be trained on your own voice
Limitations
