Can AI play guitar parts for my song?

Yes. Veena is an AI DAW with a personal music producer built in. Describe the song you want and CoProducer builds it with you — beats, chords, melody, arrangement and mix — as real tracks you can edit, mix and export. Free, in your browser. On guitar, CoProducer plays rhythm parts, riffs and fills on six guitar sounds, from nylon-string to distortion.

I play guitar. Can the AI build a band around my recording?

Yes, and it's one of the most common ways Veena gets used. Record your take through your mic or drop in a phone memo, then ask CoProducer for drums, bass and keys. It measures the take's tempo and downbeat, sets the project tempo to match, and writes every part to your timing, not a click.

Which guitar sounds does Veena's AI guitarist use?

Veena's Guitar shelf has six: nylon and steel-string acoustics, clean and muted electrics, overdriven and distortion. Add chorus, delay synced to the tempo, distortion or reverb from the built-in effects, or install the Veena Bridge on a Mac or Windows computer and run the part through your own amp-sim plug-in.

Can I turn my guitar riff into MIDI or another instrument?

Yes. Ask CoProducer to transcribe the riff and Veena places it as an editable MIDI part on a new track, with your recording muted. Or ask it to re-voice the take as another instrument, say a synth lead or a cello, and the new audio lands on its own track while your original stays in the project.

AI Guitarist: Riffs, Strums and Doubles From a Sentence

The AI guitarist in Veena, a free AI DAW with a personal music producer who plays every part, knows the difference between strumming a chorus and chugging a verse. Ask CoProducer for "palm-muted eighths in the verse, open chords in the chorus" and the part lands on a real guitar track, editable note by note.

Which guitarist does the song need?

Guitar is among the five instruments people name most in their first requests to CoProducer, in Veena's own data, and it covers more jobs than any other chair in the band. Know which one you're hiring:

The rhythm player. Strums, chugs and chops that drive the song with the drummer. "Palm-muted eighths", "down, down, up, up, down, up", "reggae skank on the offbeats", "funk scratches on the 16ths".

The riff. A two- or four-bar figure people hum after one listen, often doubled by the bass. "A riff on the low strings that answers the vocal", "power chords, root and fifth".

The fills. Short lines in the gaps between vocal phrases. "Clean guitar, answer every vocal line with a two-beat fill."

The texture. Arpeggios and ringing open chords that fill the room without taking it over. "Fingerpick the verse", "arpeggiate the chords and let them ring".

Most songs need two of these at once. Ask for both and CoProducer puts them on separate tracks, so you can mix them like two players.

Directions your AI guitarist understands

You say	You hear
"Palm-muted eighths"	The chug: short, damped notes on every eighth, on the muted electric
"Open chords, let them ring"	Full voicings with long notes that overlap into the next chord
"Power chords in the chorus"	Root and fifth only, on the overdriven or distortion guitar
"Skank on the offbeats"	Short chord chops on every "and", the reggae and ska upstroke
"Fingerpick the verse"	Bass note on the beat, the upper strings picked in between
"Double the riff and pan it wide"	A second take of the part on its own track, one left, one right
"Cleaner" / "dirtier"	The part moves between the clean, overdriven and distortion guitars
"Drop the guitar out for the bridge"	The track goes quiet and comes back on the last chorus

Every new part arrives as three takes to audition. Keep the one that sits right, and every later direction edits that take instead of starting over.

Already a guitarist? CoProducer is your band

Plenty of people searching for an AI guitarist can play. What they're missing is everyone else, and that's the job of an AI music producer. Record the part you wrote, then hand CoProducer the rest:

Record through your mic, or drop in a voice memo, demo or loop.
Ask: "Build drums and bass around my guitar: laid-back groove, bass locked to my downstrokes, a keys pad in the chorus."
CoProducer measures your take's tempo and downbeat, sets the project tempo to match and writes every part to your timing.
Pick the takes you like, then direct: "busier drums in the last chorus", "bass out for the first verse".

Want your riff as notes? Ask CoProducer to transcribe it, and it lands as an editable MIDI part on a new track, with your recording muted. Want it on another instrument? Ask for "my riff as a synth lead" and CoProducer re-voices the audio. More on that on the voice to instrument page, and the online recording studio page covers the recording setup.

Three guitar parts, start to finish

Three styles from make music by genre, three different guitar chairs.

Indie rock, 150 BPM, A major.

"150 BPM indie rock in A major: overdriven guitar chugging palm-muted eighths in the verse, open chords ringing in the chorus, the chorus riff doubled and panned wide."

After the first take, try "let the last chord of every chorus ring for a full bar". That's the move that makes a chorus feel like it lands.

Country, 110 BPM, G major.

"110 BPM country in G: steel-string acoustic strumming a boom-chick pattern, a clean electric answering the vocal with short fills, brushed drums and an upright bass on one and three."

Country and folk are among the styles CoProducer lands most reliably: 84.5% of new users who ask for them get a first result on day one, in Veena's own data. The country page covers the rest of the style.

Lo-fi, 78 BPM, F major.

"78 BPM lo-fi in F major: nylon-string guitar arpeggiating jazzy seventh chords, lazy drums behind the beat, a warm bass and a vinyl crackle texture."

The crackle comes in as audio from CoProducer's sample search, on its own track. More on the style at lo-fi music.

Shaping the part after the take

A guitar part from CoProducer is MIDI on a guitar instrument, so you can reshape it without re-recording.

Voicings. Open the clip in the Piano Roll and drag any note of a chord. Drop the top note for a darker voicing, or delete the third for a power chord.
The strum. Turn snap off and nudge each note of a chord a little later than the one below it: a block chord becomes a downstroke.
The tone. Six guitars on the Guitar shelf: Acoustic Guitar (nylon), Acoustic Guitar (steel), Electric Guitar (clean), Electric Guitar (muted), Overdriven Guitar and Distortion Guitar. Add Chorus, Delay synced to the tempo, Distortion or Reverb to the clip, or ask CoProducer: "make it sound like a small amp in a big room".
Your rig. With the Veena Bridge on a Mac or Windows computer, run the part through your own amp-sim plug-in.
Out the door. Export the guitar track alone, every track, or the mix, as WAV at 24-bit/48 kHz, MP3 or MIDI. No cap, no watermark.

Who else claims the guitar chair

LANDR Layers. LANDR's AI Guitarist page asks "Is guitar missing from your track?" Even its "instant stereo double" is a second generated audio part ("a second guitar part with the same arrangement and articulations") that you drag from its standalone desktop app into another DAW. Layers comes with LANDR Studio subscriptions (LANDR's AI Guitarist page, September 2026). Re-voicing one chord means generating again.

Logic Pro. Apple's Session Players are a synth player, a piano player, two bass players and two drummers. There's no guitarist among them, and Logic needs a Mac with Apple silicon or an iPad, at $199.99 or $12.99 a month (Apple's Logic Pro page, September 2026).

LUNA. Universal Audio sells LUNA as "a DAW built for guitarists" where you "jam along with session musicians who adapt to your song". Those session musicians are a partner plug-in, Celemony Tonalic Essential, included with LUNA Studio at $199 or the UAD Spark Studio subscription at $149 a year, not with LUNA Free, in a DAW you download for macOS or Windows (Universal Audio's LUNA page, September 2026).

Aiode. Aiode lists an electric guitarist among its musician models, but you can't record your own guitar into it yet: its new owner says native audio recording is "planned for future versions" (BandLab Technologies, 15 July 2026). The studio calls itself "currently in beta" (Aiode's product and pricing pages, September 2026).

Plug in

Paste the prompt below into CoProducer and start with the rhythm part; the fills come easier once the chug is right. For the rest of the rhythm section, the AI drummer sets the pocket and the AI band arranges everyone around your guitar.
