Core features
Create string parts to capture the bowing, note transitions, dynamics, and collective expression of real orchestral players. Develop a cinematic sound directly from your own MIDI without assembling it from fixed phrases.
Write melodies, harmonies, countermelodies, bass movement, ostinatos, chordal textures, and supporting lines for violin, viola, cello, and double bass. Build anything from a restrained chamber arrangement to a full string section around the exact notes and voicings your production requires.
Refine articulations, timing, note lengths, dynamics, expression, and ensemble balance until the strings follow the movement of your score. Render the finished take as audio for further arranging, processing, and mixing in your DAW.
Getting started
Add a new Instrument Track to your ACE Studio project and open the AI Instrument Library.
Import a MIDI or MusicXML file, or enter and edit notes directly in the piano roll to define the melody, rhythm, note lengths, and phrasing.
Choose an AI string-section sound or work with violin, viola, cello, double bass, and other available string instruments. Apply the selected instruments to your track and turn the written notes into a natural-sounding performance.
Refine timing, dynamics, articulations, and expression to create the right sense of movement and intensity. Use automatic articulation selection as a starting point or adjust the performance details manually before rendering the final audio.
Use cases
Turn orchestral MIDI sketches into convincing string performances that make voicings, registers, dynamics, and transitions easier to evaluate before recording or final production.
Create thematic passages, dramatic builds, emotional underscores, rhythmic tension, and large ensemble moments that follow the pacing and narrative direction of a visual project.
Arrange warm sustained chords, countermelodies, hooks, and supporting textures around vocals, synths, guitars, and rhythm sections in pop, R&B, rock, hip-hop, electronic, and alternative productions.
Write repeating violin, viola, cello, or full-section patterns that add momentum beneath melodies, dialogue, vocals, and larger orchestral themes.
Use rising figures, dynamic builds, sustained harmonies, and articulated ensemble passages to connect song sections, reinforce key moments, and increase the scale of an arrangement.
Render your AI string parts as audio and continue with EQ, compression, reverb, automation, spatial processing, layering, and final mixing in your preferred DAW.

ACE Studio turns MIDI or MusicXML into expressive string parts. You can create individual violin, viola, cello, and double-bass parts or develop fuller AI string sections for songs, orchestral arrangements, and visual media.
Yes. ACE Studio provides dedicated AI string-section models recorded with the Budapest Art Orchestra. They are designed to capture the bowing, movement between notes, expression, and unified character of a real orchestral section.
Yes. You can create melodies, harmonies, countermelodies, rhythmic ostinatos, sustained chords, bass movement, swells, and supporting orchestral textures from your own MIDI. You control the notes, voicings, register, rhythm, and structure of each part.
Yes. You can import MIDI or MusicXML into an Instrument Track or enter notes directly in the piano roll. The written notes define the pitch, rhythm, duration, harmony, and structure of the string arrangement.
Ensemble Mode lets you combine multiple AI instruments on one Instrument Track. Use it to layer different string sounds, adjust the gain of individual instruments, and introduce slight timing offsets that help the combined performance feel more natural.
Yes. ACE Studio can automatically select suitable articulations based on the written part, or you can adjust them manually. Depending on the selected instrument, available articulations can include techniques such as legato and pizzicato. You can also edit timing, note lengths, dynamics, and expression.
The AI Strings Generator performs the MIDI composition you provide rather than replacing your orchestration decisions. You remain in control of the notes, harmony, voicing, rhythm, and structure. ACE Studio’s generative tools can help you explore musical ideas before you develop the final string parts.
Yes. Use a smaller combination of string instruments for restrained chamber textures, or layer violin, viola, cello, double bass, and dedicated section sounds for broader cinematic arrangements. The size and character of the result depend on your instrument selection, MIDI writing, dynamics, and ensemble setup.
Yes. Render your finished string tracks as audio and import them into your DAW for mixing, processing, layering, automation, or further arrangement. Create the string parts on separate Instrument Tracks when you need individual files for different sections of the ensemble.
Yes. ACE Studio’s pre-made AI instruments are licensed and royalty-free. You can use the string performances you create in personal and commercial projects without paying additional royalties, subject to ACE Studio’s licensing terms.
Yes. AI strings can be used in pop, R&B, soul, rock, hip-hop, electronic music, acoustic productions, musical theatre, game soundtracks, advertisements, and other styles. The result depends on your MIDI, voicing, articulation, dynamics, and production choices.
Yes. ACE Studio offers a 7-day money-back guarantee for eligible payments. Each account can receive one refund per plan tier, and plan upgrade payments are also covered. Once approved, the refund is returned to the original payment method and the related membership is revoked.
No. ACE Studio generates AI string performances through cloud-based processing, so you do not need to download and manage a massive traditional string library. Create the arrangement from MIDI and render the resulting audio for use in your regular production setup.
Your notes. A real performance.
