Waves has unveiled Illugen, a new AI-powered desktop app and text-to-sound engine that generates loops, one-shots and sound effects based on text prompts.
The company claims that Illugen can create "sounds that have never existed", inviting users to "describe a scene, mood, or crazy idea, and Illugen will convert it into sound". All you have to do is open up the app, enter a prompt, and Illugen will provide you with three samples, any of which can then be drag-and-dropped into your DAW.
