Splice CoSo enlists AI to help you create music quickly with samples

Splice, the popular music production service with a seemingly bottomless supply of samples, has just unveiled a new way to find inspiration from those sounds. CoSo is what it calls an "intelligent musical sketch pad" that lets you create "using your ear to find what appeals to you," the company wrote in a press release. CoSo allows you to you stack up to eight samples based on genre or instrument type to quickly create loops, with a big assist from AI. Everything stays in key, beats per minute (BMP) are synced, and you can swipe to delete a sample or swap in a new one automatically. Once you create a loop, it's easy to share it on TikTok or export as an Ableton-ready project file. We've attached an example of what a creation looks like when shared via links, showing the final result and sounds used.
