Very nice. Anyone know of projects that aren't tackling the full-song problem but rather instrument parts/loops/stems/acapellas? I'd like something that's more like "infinite AI Loopcloud/Splice" most of these full-song models don't do well to be asked for individual parts in my experience (though I will have to try it with this one).

This gets discussed a lot but unfortunately there's just not much out there around this.

The closest thing I've seen is virtual drummers in Logic X which will follow along with the structure of your song and generate a percussive accompaniment. It's no substitute for a real drummer but it's serviceable.

Yeah... I hope this is what their plan is with that, but I'm not entirely certain.

Also live AI dueting would be interesting, like having a virtual guitarist you could jam/duet with.

Yeah. Or like, a loop that plays continuously and has style parameters exposed you can tweak with a controller like a Midi Fighter Twister and get feedback from in real-time. Then you could do something akin to DJ/live production by having two of these going in sync with each other into a mixer. (Tweak params of the cue track until you like it, transition at a phrase point, repeat).

Like this? https://aistudio.google.com/apps/bundled/promptdj?showPrevie...

Oh! The idea that each parameter could be associated with a text style prompt is a refinement of the idea for sure.

Yesssss. Something I'd really like is some kind of virtual drummer pedal with an expression pedal (pedals?) so that it can be tweaked in real time.

One of the most fun things about jamming with other musicians is that things change with the ebb and flow of the band's energy. i always miss it when I'm just fooling around at home with a looper.
