Tuney is a digital music tool made for creators . Tuney combines sounds from world-class musicians to create soundtracks that can be edited and customized to any creative project .
Instead of searching through music libraries for pre-existing tracks that fit , Tuney lets users generate the right soundtrack based on their needs . Tuney differs fom other royalty-free music sites in that their music is adaptive , meaning the engine can “ score ” a video , adapting music to fit the length , format , and even narrative arc of specific content after analyzing the video .
Users can also change the music to better fit their creative vision without being a producer or knowing how to edit music . Their tools let content creators change the track length , intro length , beat drop , and even instrumentation with the click of a button . www . tuney . io
