What is AI Sound?
AI Sound is an AI-native audio editor designed as a modern replacement for desktop tools like Audacity. Instead of bolting AI onto an existing app, AI Sound is built from the ground up with LLM integration at its core — enabling conversational audio editing, automatic transcription, speaker diarization, and semantic search across your audio content.
It works with any OpenAI-compatible API — run it fully local with Ollama, or connect to OpenAI, Groq, or any other compatible provider. No vendor lock-in, no API keys required for local use.
AI Sound also exposes a full MCP (Model Context Protocol) server, letting AI assistants like Claude Desktop directly edit, analyze, and export your audio projects.
Key Features
- Multi-track editing — import, arrange, and mix multiple audio tracks
- AI-powered transcription — speech-to-text with word-level timestamps
- Speaker diarization — automatically identify and split by speaker
- Semantic search — find content by meaning, not just keywords
- Audio effects — normalize, compress, EQ, reverb, noise reduction, fade, pitch shift, speed
- Non-destructive editing — full undo/redo history
- Export — export individual tracks or full project mixes
- MCP integration — expose all editing tools to AI assistants
Quickstart
Prerequisites
- Bun — JavaScript/TypeScript runtime
- FFmpeg — audio processing (
brew install ffmpegon macOS) - An OpenAI-compatible LLM — Ollama for local, or any cloud provider
Install & Run
git clone https://github.com/your-username/ai-sound.git
cd ai-sound
bun install
bun run dev
Open http://localhost:5175 in your browser.
On first launch, configure your LLM provider in Settings (gear icon). The default is Ollama at localhost:11434.
LLM Configuration
AI Sound works with any OpenAI-compatible API. Configure your provider in-app via Settings — no .env files needed.
| Provider | Base URL | Model Example |
|---|---|---|
| Ollama (local) | http://localhost:11434/v1 |
llama3.2 |
| OpenAI | https://api.openai.com/v1 |
gpt-4o |
| Anthropic (via proxy) | provider-specific | claude-sonnet-4-20250514 |
| Groq | https://api.groq.com/openai/v1 |
llama-3.3-70b |
For cloud providers, enter your API key in the Settings panel. For Ollama, no API key is needed.
MCP Server
AI Sound includes a built-in Model Context Protocol server, allowing AI assistants like Claude Desktop to interact with your audio projects programmatically.
Claude Desktop Configuration
Add the following to your Claude Desktop config (~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json):
{
"mcpServers": {
"ai-sound": {
"command": "bun",
"args": ["run", "/absolute/path/to/ai-sound/server/lib/mcp/server.ts"]
}
}
}
Replace /absolute/path/to/ai-sound with the actual path to your installation.
