️ ✏What does this tool offer?
Staccato is an AI-powered platform for creating original, editable MIDI files, helping musicians and producers turn musical ideas into MIDI tracks that can be further developed in digital audio workstations (DAWs).
The platform allows users to create new music by entering text prompts or using their own files, with the ability to request various musical modifications, such as:
- Creating new MIDI files using the Create feature.
- Adding musical accompaniment using Accompany.
- Rewriting musical ideas using “Rewrite.”
- Extending musical segments using “Extend.”
Staccato can generate MIDI files containing up to:
- 16 tracks.
- 32 bars in a single session.
The platform focuses on creating MIDI rather than audio samples, allowing users to freely edit all musical elements within their production software, such as:
- Individual notes.
- Timing.
- Velocity levels.
- The overall feel of the track.
- Musical developments.
Staccato supports all musical genres and instruments and works with various digital audio workstations (DAWs), allowing users to drag and drop MIDI files directly into their projects without having to leave the workspace.
The platform also allows users to upload their own MIDI or audio files, then use artificial intelligence to add musical accompaniment, develop the piece, or build upon it.
Staccato takes a different approach to training its model; rather than relying solely on analyzing popular songs, it focuses on understanding how music is constructed through:
- music theory.
- The emotional arc of songs.
- The relationships between the parts of a musical composition.
- The elements that give music genuine emotion.
The platform also learns the user’s musical style over time to deliver results that better align with their creative style.
Staccato provides 100% royalty-free MIDI files that can be used freely, and grants users ownership of and the right to use the results generated by the tool.
