A conversation popped up on another platform about the role of AI in music production, generally as its used in the mastering process. Now I’m not sure how much AI that actually involves and see it more as a set of rules that will map your song or music to a contemporary ‘good mix’… basically control the EQ, RMS peak and LUFS. Things like this are becoming more and more prominent on music histinf sites.

I do use AI in some processing as I use software like Steinberg’s SpectraLayers to ‘un-layer’ and un-mix tonal qualities, and so on but I don’t use it in mastering. I do that the old fashioned way.

Your thoughts…? Yay or nay…?

    I have the same opinion as the other comment. It’s useful as a guide or for checking for issues, but I wouldn’t trust it completely for mixing. It applies for me especially with the kind of music I make, which doesn’t fit into a typical genre that AI is most likely trained on, and therefore might have a different result to what was intended. For general stuff like peaks and LUFS, it will definitely be useful.
