Prominent firms in the market for music production systems are concentrating on formulating advanced technology solutions, including artificial intelligence (AI) music production software plugin tools. These tools aid music producers in creating new music compositions. The AI music production software plugin tool is a unique software part or module that incorporates AI tech into digital audio workstations (DAWs) or music production software to boost the creative process, automate tasks, and create musical features. For example, in November 2023, DigiTraxAI, an American music AI firm, unveiled KR38R PRO, the first ever AI music production software plugin tool. This software works in tandem with major digital audio workstations (DAWs) and employs powerful algorithms for the creation, remix, and adjustment of music pieces, thereby enhancing workflow efficiency. The tool has sliders for motion and flow for controlling music dynamics and a central dice button for randomization, facilitating musicians to delve into innumerable musical potentials. KR38R PRO is the manifestation of seven years of joint effort between humans and AI, with music theory as the fundamental innovation, offering composers and producers instant creative possibilities.
