24 alternatives to Sonura Studio

so i got sick of scrolling through sample libraries, buying plugins, and trying desperately to make original music and sound design with suno. built a DAW that's free to try for any music producers or content creators! you can generate individual stems, one shots and sfx standalone or in studio mode. you can also share and remix tracks instantly, something incredibly painful in the existing audio space. shoot me an email at [email protected] if you wanna come work on this with me :)

    Hey HN, My cofounder and I trained an AI music generation model and after a month of testing we're launching 1.0 today. Ours is interesting because it's a latent diffusion model instead of a language model, which makes it more controllable: https://sonauto.ai/ Others do music generation by training a Vector Quantized Variational Autoencoder like Descript Audio Codec (https://github.com/descriptinc/descript-audio-codec) to turn music into tokens, then training an LLM on those tokens. Instead, we ripped the tokenization part off and replaced it with a normal…

    I turned my resume into a catchy pop song. Thought you'd all appreciate it. Worked directly on the Song Style prompt, which you can duplicate for your own fun catchy resume song. Just replace the lyrics!

    Hi HN! I could never find the right sample for my music, so we built Sounds. A collaborative catalog of free samples and loops, generated with our music model. Everything is free to browse and download, but the most fun part is to generate your own. Every generation joins the public library, so the catalog grows from what people couldn't find.

    I think Suno opened up music. Kling and Runway opened up video - but there's one creative domain nobody has touched yet: dance. So my team built an web app — give it a YouTube link to your music and it generates a 3D dance animation in under 2 minutes. The core is a diffusion-based music-to-motion model (mvnt-m4) trained on proprietary mocap/label data from professional choreographers. I think dance is the missing piece of AI-generated content — just like how performance made K-pop a global phenomenon, and we believe AI dance will play the same role in the AI UGC era. This is v0.1 — a…

    Hey HN i’m a platform engineer and my day job I mainly focus on kubernetes clusters and terraform with the occasional C#, Typescript when building services, so this could well be completely out of my depth. Jolt started as an experiment to see whether I could build my own network at all. I’ll also be honest that most of this code was agentically written. However the high level decisions and architecture were mine based on research, experimentation, trial and error. Canary testing was one of the consequences of that when you build this way you need something slapping your AI-driven confidence…
