What they did

An MCP server lets the agent drive Ableton: drums, bass, melody and a rough mix from chat.

How it went

Full sets were built in minutes; some follow-up edits sounded muddy and needed retries.

The prompt

Help me connect an Ableton Live MCP server. Then make a [genre] track of about [length] with [instruments/mood]: drums, bass, melody and a basic mix. Stop when it plays through, and ask before overwriting any project file.

Written by us so you can reuse it. Replace each [bracket] with your details.

Step by step

  1. Open Codex (openai.com/codex) and connect the apps the prompt mentions.
  2. Copy the prompt below and replace every [bracket] with your details.
  3. Let it run, and approve each step before anything is sent, published or paid for.
  4. Save the prompt as a reusable task or skill once it works.
