# Generate Original Music with AI

> Create original, royalty-free music tracks from a text description. Choose your duration and generate custom soundtracks in seconds.

The Music Generator produces original audio tracks from a text description of the mood, genre, or style you have in mind. There are no samples to license or loops to stitch together — the output is a unique composition generated for your prompt, ready to use in your project.

## Navigate to the Music Generator

Go to **Tools > Audio > VoiceZen > Music Generator**.

## Generate music

<Steps>
  <Step title="Describe the music you want">
    Type a description of the track in the prompt field. Be specific about mood, genre, instruments, and energy level.

    **Examples:**

    * `Upbeat electronic dance music with driving synths and a festival atmosphere`
    * `Calm piano melody for meditation, slow tempo, minimal arrangement`
    * `Cinematic epic orchestral with swelling strings and brass`

    You can also click one of the **genre preset** buttons to populate the prompt automatically:

    | Preset                         | Description                   |
    | ------------------------------ | ----------------------------- |
    | Cinematic epic orchestral      | Full orchestral, dramatic     |
    | Lo-fi hip hop chill beats      | Relaxed, looping, ambient     |
    | Upbeat pop electronic          | Energetic, modern pop feel    |
    | Ambient atmospheric soundscape | Textural, non-melodic         |
    | Rock guitar-driven energy      | Guitar-led, high energy       |
    | Jazz smooth piano              | Piano-forward, laid-back jazz |
    | EDM festival anthem            | High-energy dance floor track |
    | Acoustic folk indie            | Organic, stripped-back feel   |

  </Step>

  <Step title="Select a duration">
    Click the **duration button** (clock icon) and choose how long your track should be:

    | Duration   | Credits        |
    | ---------- | -------------- |
    | 15 seconds | 2,500 credits  |
    | 30 seconds | 5,000 credits  |
    | 60 seconds | 10,000 credits |
    | 90 seconds | 15,000 credits |
    | 2 minutes  | 20,000 credits |

    <Note>Credit costs scale with duration. Start with a 15-second track to preview the style before committing to a longer generation.</Note>
  </Step>

  <Step title="Generate">
    Click **Create**. Longer durations take more time to process — a 2-minute track may take up to a minute to generate.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Preview">
    The generated track appears in the audio player directly on the page. Play it back to review before downloading.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Download">
    Click the download button on the player to save the track to your device.
  </Step>
