Aiva settings guide

Aiva specialises in orchestral, cinematic and game music with complex arrangements.

Use Influence tracks to guide Aiva's composition — upload a reference piece and specify which elements to borrow (tempo, instrumentation, mood) for stylistically consistent results.

Aiva's 'create from scratch' mode gives you full control over key signature, tempo, time signature, and instruments — more control than any other AI music tool.

Free tier compositions are royalty-free for personal and non-commercial use — for client work or monetised content, the Standard plan ($11/mo) includes commercial licensing.

Export in MIDI format (Pro) to bring Aiva compositions into DAWs like Ableton or Logic — edit individual instrument parts, change sounds, and post-produce professionally.

Use preset styles (Epic Action, Ambient Electronic, Jazz, Orchestral) as starting points — Aiva's style presets are trained on thousands of real compositions in each genre.

Generate several variations from the same settings and pick the best fit.
