ElevenLabs Music

Describe the mood, instruments and direction of a track, then create music for your next idea.

Input

Fields marked * are required. Review the price before generating.

The text prompt describing the music to generate

Additional settings

The composition plan for the music

The styles that should be present in the entire song.

The styles that should not be present in the entire song.

The sections of the song.

Tips and requirements

The length of the song to generate in milliseconds. Used only in conjunction with prompt. Must be between 3000ms and 600000ms. Optional - if not provided, the model will choose a length based on the prompt.

Tips and requirements

If true, guarantees that the generated song will be instrumental. If false, the song may or may not be instrumental depending on the prompt. Can only be used with prompt.

Tips and requirements

Controls how strictly section durations in the composition_plan are enforced. It will only have an effect if it is used with composition_plan. When set to true, the model will precisely respect each section's duration_ms from the plan. When set to false, the model may adjust individual section durations which will generally lead to better generation quality and improved latency, while always preserving the total song duration from the plan.

Tips and requirements

Output format of the generated audio. Formatted as codec_sample_rate_bitrate. So an mp3 with 22.05kHz sample rate at 32kbs is represented as mp3_22050_32. MP3 with 192kbps bitrate requires you to be subscribed to Creator tier or above. PCM with 44.1kHz sample rate requires you to be subscribed to Pro tier or above. Note that the μ-law format (sometimes written mu-law, often approximated as u-law) is commonly used for Twilio audio inputs.

How to use ElevenLabs Music

Getting started

Describe a musical direction for a scene or idea. Include the mood and instrumentation you want, then listen to the complete result before choosing where to use it.

Example prompt

A relaxed instrumental track with soft piano, warm bass and a light rhythm. Keep the mood reflective and leave room for spoken narration.

Review your result

Listen through headphones and speakers. Check the beginning, transitions and ending; review the applicable terms for your intended use before publishing.

Inputs and settings

Choose either a descriptive prompt or a composition_plan for a structured arrangement. The prompt route uses music_length_ms for length in milliseconds; 30 seconds is 30,000 ms.

With a prompt, use force_instrumental when you want music without vocals. For a composition plan, define sections and review respect_sections_durations rather than applying prompt-only controls.

Select output_format from the current schema and quote the complete request. Listen to the beginning, transitions and ending; a musical prompt is not a text-to-speech script.

Is ElevenLabs Music copyright-free?

A generation is not a blanket copyright-free license. ElevenLabs Music has applicable usage terms and restrictions on inputs that reference protected songs or artists. Check the terms and the rights to your inputs for the intended use; a generation price alone does not establish distribution rights.
