Aviary launches free browser-based music creator

Aviary announced the release of its online music creator (codenamed Roc) on Thursday. The Long Island, NY based company added the tool to its web-based creative suite which includes vector, color and audio editors, among others.

Roc is released under a Creative Commons – Attribution 3.0 Generic license, giving users unrestricted access to its instrument library.

From the Aviary blog:

Best of all, completed music made using our instrument library can be used by anyone for any purpose, commercial or non-commercial [...] We feel that by providing this tool without any commercial restrictions we will help the Internet cultivate and create an alternative shared library of musical loops that anyone can access and use without restriction.

Users can create loops and edit them directly in Myna — Aviary’s free online Audio editor.
