Maps eight controller buttons to an 88-key piano using a learned model.
What happened in the demo
Meet Piano Genie! Press Play, then use the numbered keys, one through eight. Here, we're exploring a little pattern for a fictional music club. Watch the colored piano keys and falling notes. Those are the model's actual selections from our button presses. It maps eight controls onto an eighty-eight-key piano. Try a playful introduction to AI music!
The example used in the reel
A small, specific input makes the result easier to inspect. Use the example below to understand the scope of the recorded workflow; it is not a promise that a new run will produce an identical result.
Open Piano Genie, press Play, then use the numbered 1–8 keys to control the piano and observe the genuinely highlighted predicted keys and falling notes.
Try it yourself
- Open Piano Genie

Start with material you own or have permission to use. Save the original and compare it with the output before moving the result into a real project. If the interface has changed, follow the current official instructions linked below.
What to check before using the result
This is an exploratory music interface. A short session is not a guarantee of a particular composition.
Keep the task narrow on your first attempt. Check the details that matter to your use case rather than judging only whether the result looks polished. A successful short example is a useful introduction, not a benchmark of the whole product.
