Waves Audio has announced the debut of ILLUGEN, a new AI-powered text-to-sound engine desktop app designed to enable users to turn text prompts into original, never-before-heard custom-generated audio.
ILLUGEN is not a sample library or a collection of pre-made sounds; rather, it’s an open-ended way to create and explore sound. Designed to free creators from conventional sample-based workflows, ILLUGEN enables users to generate original audio through imaginative text prompts. Whether crafting dynamic sound elements or shaping distinctive textures, this tool is designed to transform ideas into unique sonic experiences.
By typing in a scene, mood or sonic concept, such as “Alien signals pulsating underwater,” “A haunted violin drifting in the wind,” or “The sound of a spaceship’s broken radio,” ILLUGEN’s AI-powered text-to-sound generator works to bring the descriptions to life. It generates fresh, original audio from the user’s own descriptions.
Additional aspects:
— Generates one-shots, loops, and special FX
— Drag and drop the generated sounds straight to a DAW
— Three unique sound variations created from each prompt
— History page to browse all previously generated sounds
ILLUGEN is available in three subscription tiers:
Basic. 150 monthly credits for US$7.99 per month plus a 150-credit signup bonus to get started.
Extended. 300 monthly credits for US$12.99 per month, with a 300-credit signup bonus upon subscribing.
PRO. 600 monthly credits for US$19.99 per month, with a 600-credit signup bonus upon subscribing.
All three plans allow unused credits to roll over each month, ensuring users get the most out of their subscription. Users can try ILLUGEN with 30 free credits online before subscribing. Go here for more specifics.
