Analyse audio and make beats in ChatGPT

MAP Audio measures a recording that you attach in ChatGPT: its tempo, key, loudness against streaming targets, tonal balance, stereo and sections, and shows it with its waveform and spectrogram. ChatGPT receives the same analysis, so you can ask what it means for your mix or which preset fits. You can also open PAM, MAP Audio's sampler and sequencer, and play a beat in the conversation, hear a recording or a loop through an MFX effect preset, or master a mix.

Waveform and spectrogram
Click to seek. Drag across the waveform to loop a passage.
Analysis
Tempo and first downbeat, key with its Camelot code, integrated loudness, loudness range and true peak against the -14, -16 and -23 LUFS targets, tonal balance, stereo and mono compatibility, and sections, from MAP Audio's own analysis engine. ChatGPT can also compare a file with the recording it was made from, check a mix against up to three reference tracks, or show its spectrogram.
Shared with ChatGPT
The analysis, playhead and selected region are passed to the conversation, with PAM and MFX presets that fit the recording. ChatGPT can also open a file at a given time and mark sections on the timeline.
PAM
MAP Audio's eight-cell sampler and sequencer runs its full engine in your browser. ChatGPT opens it with a preset, a variation and a tempo. Signed in, ChatGPT can also change the tempo, variation, preset and transport, set parameters, load a recording into a cell, and export what PAM plays as a WAV or a .preset file. Press Play inside PAM once to hear it.
MFX
MAP Audio's effects processor renders audio through one of its presets in your browser, without opening MFX. Try a preset on one of its built-in loops, or, signed in, on your own recording: compare the result with the original, download it, or ask ChatGPT about its loudness.
Music API
For a MAP Audio account with Music API access, ChatGPT renders PAM factory presets and drum hits through the MAP Audio Music API and opens them in the player. Music API access is by invitation.
Limits
The player, the analysis, PAM and MFX's built-in loops work without signing in. Controlling and exporting from PAM, MFX on your own recordings, mastering and the Music API need a MAP Audio account; no PAM or MFX licence is needed. Files up to 32 MiB; the analysis reads WAV, AIFF, FLAC and MP3 up to ten minutes, and MFX takes up to five minutes (about three minutes of WAV); stored copies expire after one hour. PAM in ChatGPT uses MAP Audio's presets and cannot host plug-ins. MAP Audio does not make songs, vocals or sounds from a text prompt.

Open a recording

  1. Add MAP Audio in ChatGPT. Playing and analysing a recording need no sign-in.
  2. Attach a recording and ask ChatGPT for its tempo, key or loudness, or to open it in MAP Audio.
  3. Drag across the waveform to loop a passage, then ask about it or download the file.

Play PAM

  1. Ask ChatGPT to open PAM, or to open a preset at a tempo, such as a techno preset at 128 BPM.
  2. Press Play inside PAM. Change cells, patterns and effects there, and ask ChatGPT about what is playing.
  3. Sign in to your MAP Audio account when ChatGPT asks, so that it can change PAM for you and export what it plays.
