Ace Studio
ACE Studio is an AI music workstation focused on singing voice generation and intelligent instruments. Developed by Timedomain, it turns MIDI, lyrics, and audio into editable, studio‑quality vocals and expressive instruments. The platform combines an AI vocal synth, AI violin, voice cloning, AI voice changer, and text‑to‑sample tools inside a timeline‑based desktop app, with a web account and a DAW plugin for integration. It targets producers, composers, and sound designers who want detailed control over vocal performance rather than fully automatic “one‑prompt” songs.
