Splice has launched Splice Create, an all-in-one music production platform combining its extensive sample library, virtual instruments and AI-assisted tools to help producers make music and develop their skills.<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Splice is taking its music production platform a step further with the launch<\/a> of Splice Create<\/a>, a new digital audio workstation (DAW) that brings its huge library of sounds directly into the production process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Available in beta, the new software combines familiar production tools with AI-assisted features designed to help creators experiment, learn new techniques and get past creative blocks. Rather than simply generating music for users, Splice wants to give producers more ways to develop their ideas while keeping using human-made samples and sounds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is Splice Create?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Splice Create is an all-in-one DAW with Splice’s catalogue of millions of human-made, fully licensed sounds and samples built directly into the software. It also includes virtual instruments from Splice INSTRUMENT, effects and support for third-party VST plugins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the most useful features is Assist, which lets producers use voice and text commands to interact with their projects. Users can ask it to find particular sounds, group drum tracks, apply effects or take care of repetitive production tasks without having to navigate every control themselves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Importantly, Assist doesn\u2019t generate an entire song for you. It searches its existing sound library, creates MIDI patterns and offers variations of selected samples, with the results remaining editable within the project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There’s also Point Mode, which guides users through the software with an interactive on-screen pointer. Rather than simply making changes for them, it demonstrates how to carry out different production techniques, helping beginners build their skills while working on their own music.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Splice Create is currently available as a standalone Mac app in beta, with Windows and web versions planned. It’s free to try, but exporting projects and licensing Splice samples requires a qualifying subscription. Create Pro is available at an introductory price of $9.99 per month, while existing Splice Creator and Creator+ subscribers can also access these features.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Projects can be exported as full mixes or individual WAV stems, allowing producers to take their work into other DAWs and continue developing their tracks using their existing setups.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What does Splice Create mean for independent music producers?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Splice’s move into DAW software reflects a wider shift in music production. Sample libraries, virtual instruments and AI-assisted tools are increasingly becoming part of the same creative environment, rather than separate services producers have to switch between.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For independent producers, bringing these tools together could make the process of turning an initial idea into a finished track more accessible. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It also highlights a different approach to AI in music production. Rather than focusing on generating finished songs, Splice is using AI to support the creative process itself. This builds on a growing category of tools that help with sound selection, arrangement and other technical tasks while leaving the creative decisions to the producer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
