Musio

MCP For agents and assistants

Let an agent run Musio Studio.You make the music.

MCP is a standard feature in most modern apps, so Musio Studio supports it. Connect your own agent to do the setup and the busywork. We’re curious what you do with it.

Musio Studio's song view: tracks of strings, brass, percussion and keys, with a violin's articulations and mics open on the right

Works with

  • Claude Code
  • Codex
  • Cursor
  • and other MCP apps

Names and logos belong to their owners. No partnership is implied.

Hand off the busywork.

Everything you’d do with the mouse and keyboard, in a sentence. Every change is one step in Undo.

Set up the session

Tracks with the sounds you ask for, named and in order. The tempo, time signature, key and sections. From a template or a blank song.

Find and dial in sounds

Search every Musio collection by name or by feel, like “warm pad” or “spiccato”. Set articulations, mic positions and each instrument’s own controls.

Balance the mix

Levels, pan and reverb. Effects and buses. Measure every track’s loudness, and bring the master to its target.

Tidy the arrangement

Move, copy, split and join clips. Repeat or clear bars across every track. Keep the sections labelled.

Work to picture

Import the video, set the timecode, mark the hit points, and find tempos that land them on the beat.

Import and export

Bring in MIDI and audio. Export WAV, MP3, stems for every track, or MIDI. Download any sounds the song is missing.

Ask in plain words.

With Musio Studio open, tell your agent what you need.

  • “Add a string section and a harp, and name the tracks.”
  • “Turn on the close mics for the violins.”
  • “Balance the mix so no track peaks above −6 dB.”
  • “Copy bars 9 to 16 to bar 33 on every track.”
  • “Import my video and mark a hit at 01:00:12:05.”
  • “Export stems of the whole song.”

You stay in charge.

Musio Studio doesn’t and can’t generate music. Any agent you connect is your own, and outside Musio’s control.

Off until you turn it on

The MCP server only runs when you switch it on in Settings, under Agents. Switch it off any time.

Only on your computer

It listens on your own computer only, and an app needs your token to connect.

Everything can be undone

Each change the agent makes is one step in Undo, like any change of yours.

Connect in a minute.

  1. Turn it on

    Open Musio Studio, then Settings. Under Agents, turn on Claude Code and other MCP apps.

  2. Add it to Claude Code

    Click Copy Claude Code Command and paste it into Terminal. It looks like this, with your token:

    claude mcp add --transport http musio-studio http://127.0.0.1:47820/mcp --header "Authorization: Bearer <your token>"

  3. Or another MCP app

    Add an MCP server at http://127.0.0.1:47820/mcp with the header Authorization: Bearer and your token (Copy Token). The address and token stay the same, so you set an app up once.

  4. Ask for something

    Keep Musio Studio open while your agent works. You see each change as it happens.

Questions

What can an agent do in Musio Studio?

What you’d do with the mouse and keyboard, faster: add tracks and pick their sounds, search the catalog, set articulations, mics and levels, add effects and buses, move and copy clips, set the tempo and sections, line up hit points on a video, import MIDI and audio, and export WAV, MP3, stems or MIDI. Every change is one step in Undo.

How does an agent connect to Musio Studio?

Musio Studio has an MCP server built in. Turn it on in Settings, under Agents, then click Copy Claude Code Command and paste it into Terminal. For another MCP app, give it the address in that command (http://127.0.0.1:47820/mcp) and the token from Copy Token. The address and token stay the same, so you set an app up once.

Which agents work with it?

Claude Code, with the command Musio Studio copies for you, and other apps that support MCP over HTTP, such as Codex and Cursor. They’re your own apps, outside Musio’s control. Names belong to their owners; Musio has no partnership with them.

Does Musio Studio generate music?

No. Musio Studio doesn’t and can’t generate music. MCP is a standard feature in most modern apps, so Studio supports it, and we’re curious what people do with it.

Is it safe? What can the agent reach?

It’s off until you turn it on. It listens only on your own computer, and an app needs your token to connect. The agent works through Musio Studio’s own actions, on the song you have open and your Musio songs, and any change it makes can be undone. Turn it off in Settings at any time.

Does it cost extra?

No. Musio Studio and its MCP server are free with a free Musio account, on Mac, Windows and Linux. The agent can use any sound you have: the free sounds, or every sound with Musio Complete ($179/year, or $25/month).

Start free.

Musio Studio and the free sounds cost nothing. Musio Complete opens every sound.
