ByteDance, the parent company of TikTok, has released a music production app in the U.S. The Ripple app is designed to help creators compose and edit music for their content, particularly for short-form videos on TikTok and other platforms. Ripple allows users to sing or hum a melody into their phone's microphone, and it generates matching instrumental tracks, such as drums, bass, and piano. - The app also provides a virtual recording studio for audio editing on mobile devices, similar to portable digital audio workstations.
- It only generates instrumental music, and creators are responsible for adding vocals.
- ByteDance assures that Ripple's model was trained on its own licensed music and its in-house collection, not commercial music from labels.
- The closed beta app is currently open for invite-only testing for iOS users.
