FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What is Resin?

Resin builds generative tools for music production. Our first tool renders new instrumental stems in the context of your track.

The result is a musical part built for your session – something you can keep, refine, regenerate, or throw out. Resin’s tools are built for professional workflows: high-quality generation, iterative control, and a workflow that fits the DAW you already use. Our tools work best when skilled producers bring taste and intention, and they reward weirdness, boundary-pushing and precision. They expand creative possibilities; they don’t create shortcuts or replacements for human artistry.

What can I make with Resin?

Resin generates individual instrumental, fx, and Foley stems in the context of your music. It does not generate vocals or mixes. Use it to explore a new part, try a different direction, or find an idea to develop further.

How do I use Resin?

Start with audio you’re working on, bring it into Resin, and generate a new part alongside it. Listen in context, explore alternatives, and take the results you like back into your DAW to edit, arrange, and mix. A generation can be a starting point, a small piece of a larger idea, or a part you keep.

Does Resin work with my DAW?

You can use the web app with a DAW that exports and imports audio: bounce material from your session, bring it into Resin, and import the generated audio back into your project. Resin also has a desktop app and an Ableton Live integration for a more connected workflow.

Does Resin generate MIDI?

Not today. Resin generates audio stems, not MIDI. If MIDI is important to your workflow, tell us at hello@resin.co.

How do I get access, and what does it cost?

Resin is currently free to use in private beta. You can request access here.

What should I expect from the results?

Resin is still developing, and results vary. Some generations will hit the mark immediately; others might need editing or might not work for you at all. Listen alongside your own material, try alternatives, and keep what works for your track. Feedback on results that miss helps us understand where to improve.

What was Resin trained on?

We train our models on carefully selected music to develop the musical understanding behind the tools. We work with rightsholders on licensing partnerships and are continuing to expand those relationships. If you represent original music and are interested in partnering with us, contact licensing@resin.co.

Does Resin train on my music?

No. We do not use your inputs or generated outputs to train or fine-tune the models that power Resin.

What happens to the audio I upload?

Resin processes your audio to generate new material for you. Our Privacy Notice describes how uploads, outputs, and usage information are handled to run, support, secure, and improve the service. We do not publish your uploads without your permission.

What can I upload?

Bring music you’ve made or material you have the necessary rights and permissions to use with Resin. That includes checking the permissions for samples, stems, recordings, and collaborators’ contributions. Having access to a track does not automatically mean you have permission to upload it.

What do I own when I make something with Resin? Can I release music made with Resin commercially?

You own what you make with Resin. Resin does not claim ownership over your songs, sessions, stems, edits, arrangements, or final works.

When Resin generates material for you, you can use it in your own music and you’re free to release it commercially as long as you have the rights to whatever you uploaded or used as input. When Resin moves to a paid product down the road, anything you’ve already made during the private beta stays cleared.

Can I use Resin to imitate a specific artist or song?

Resin is built to help you develop your own music. Use your own musical ideas as context, and do not direct it to generate material that infringes someone else’s rights.

Is every generated stem unique?

Resin generates new musical material from the context you give it, and produces a large variety of different stems for any given context. That being said, no generative system can promise its output will never resemble existing music (cf. infinite monkey theorem). Use your own judgment, especially before releasing commercially. If an output feels too close to a specific song, artist, sample, drum break, or recording, don’t use it as-is – edit it, regenerate it, or leave it out. Resin’s tools are built to support your authorship: what you play, upload, choose, edit, arrange, produce, and release.

How can I give feedback?

We’d love to hear what you’re making, what’s working, and what gets in your way. Email hello@resin.co.
