Record a rough vocal or instrument take on your phone, then use AI to shape the song around your own material. LyricToMelody AI can turn lyrics or MIDI into melodies and sung vocal drafts, and can train a singing voice from vocals you upload or record. For a finished recording that needs separation, LALAL.AI can split vocals and instruments into stems. Neither tool is established here as a complete phone recording studio, so make your original recording with an audio recorder you already use and check each vendor’s site for unsupported device, file-format, or workflow details.

Record A Clean Starting Take
- Write a short section to work on first: for example, one verse and its chorus. Keep the lyric in plain text, and mark section names so you can tell where each part begins.
- Find a quiet room and place your phone on a stable surface close enough to capture a clear voice or instrument. Record a short test, listen back, then record the whole section without stopping between lines.
- Keep the original recording unchanged. If you plan to develop a melody in LyricToMelody AI, prepare the words as lyrics or enter a melody as MIDI; those are the listed inputs. A natural-language prompt feature is not established, so do not rely on a prompt box or assume it accepts instructions such as “make this sound like” a particular genre or artist.
- If you want the generated singing to use your voice, use your own vocal recording for custom singing-voice training. The listed feature supports uploaded or recorded vocals; supported sample length, file formats, and device-specific steps are not stated, so check the vendor site before preparing the recording.
Build A Vocal Draft From Your Song
- Open LyricToMelody AI in a web browser and start with your lyrics or MIDI. For example, put your verse lines together, label the chorus, and leave a clear line break between sections. This gives the songwriting workspace the material it is listed to use.
- Generate a melody or sung vocal draft, then compare its phrasing with your phone recording. Keep lines that fit your rhythm and rewrite or adjust the source material where the draft no longer sounds like your song.
- If you trained a custom singing voice, compare the result with your original recording and make sure you intended to use that voice. Do not upload another person’s vocals or imitate an identifiable singer without consent; review the service’s current terms for voice use and any intended release.
- Export the audio, MIDI, or separate stems when you are ready to continue in a DAW. The listed exports support moving the draft into production, but the particular DAW, phone compatibility, and export file details are not established here; check the vendor site and your DAW before choosing a format.
Separate A Recorded Mix When You Need Stems
- Use this step if you already have a combined recording and want its vocal or instrumental parts separated. Open LALAL.AI on mobile or another listed platform and select the separation you need, such as vocals and instruments.
- Start with a preview to judge whether the split is useful. The free Starter plan provides previews, but not full result downloads; it also has a 200 MB per-file upload limit and 10 minutes in the Relaxed Queue.
- If you need downloadable results, review the current paid options on the vendor site before paying. Check supported input formats and the exact plan limits there, since those details are not established here.
- Listen to each resulting stem before using it in the song. Separation is an editing aid, not a guarantee that every part will be isolated cleanly.
Check Rights Before You Share The Song
LyricToMelody AI lists commercial rights on paid plans; confirm the current terms and whether your plan covers your intended release. For LALAL.AI, review its terms for your intended use because commercial-use details are not established here. Use only recordings and voices you have permission to use, and get consent before training on or impersonating someone else’s voice.
