Soundation

What Soundation is

Soundation is a browser-based music studio for recording, editing, and producing music without downloading software. Its tools handle audio and MIDI recording and editing, automation, time and pitch stretching, and real-time collaboration. People can work in the same project with synchronized changes, while projects save automatically to the cloud. The studio includes more than 20,000 royalty-free samples, MIDI loops, and virtual instrument presets, plus 12 software instruments such as drum machines, synthesizers, and sampled instruments. Gennie creates 12-second musical samples from text prompts, with monthly credits varying by paid plan. Those samples use a CC BY-NC 4.0 license and cannot be used commercially or monetized. Free users can export MP3 files; high-quality MP3 or WAV export requires a Starter, Creator, or Pro account. Soundation Education costs $360 a year per teacher, with students using it free. Subscriptions can be monthly or yearly and renew automatically. The studio supports Google Classroom class imports through Soundation Education and offers Google or Facebook account authentication.
