#134: Is AI Mixing and Mastering Any Good? An In-Depth Chat with Bobby Owsinski

Have you ever wondered if AI can master my music? Maybe you're seeking answers to topics: the best AI mastering, is there an AI that can mix songs, is there AI for music production, can I AI make music, can AI make my song sound better, or maybe even is AI-generated music legal?  Then check out EP 134 of the Inside The Mix podcast.

Join me for a riveting discussion with Bobby Owsinski, music production guru and educator, as we dissect the role of AI in today's music scene. Bobby demystifies the jargon and sheds light on how AI is shaping the way we create, refine, and promote music. From the potential of AI to serve as a digital muse to the transformative powers of automated audio mastering, we cover it all. His insights navigate us through the complexities of new-age music production, where AI meets creativity—providing foundational support while leaving room for the human touch to add depth and nuance.

Venturing further into the AI realm, Bobby and I tackle the notion of AI-generated music, examining its current limitations and possibilities. Can AI-composed melodies stand toe-to-toe with the intricate works of human artists? We grapple with issues from generic patterns to the emulation of complex genres and vocal licensing. Plus, we don't shy away from addressing the elephant in the room—copyright dilemmas in the AI era. For anyone curious about the future of AI in music and the legal labyrinth that it implies, this conversation offers an enlightening perspective.

As the episode comes to a crescendo, we explore AI's capacity to balance and refine tonal quality with tools like Gullfoss and Hornet's Sleek. While examining their potential to change the standard workflow in music production, we remain grounded, recognising the irreplaceable value of human expertise. As I say goodbye to Bobby, I encourage you to discover the breadth of his knowledge on his website, which is a goldmine for anyone looking to keep a finger on the pulse of music production's digital transformation. Tune in for a symphony of insights where technology and artistry harmonize in the evolving world of music.
