Artlist Features: More Than Just a Music Library
Artlist has evolved from a simple royalty-free music site into a full creative platform with AI tools, stems, SFX, templates and editing plugins. Instead of jumping between multiple apps, you can now generate voiceovers, visuals and soundtracks and then drop everything straight into your edit.
Below is a breakdown of the key Artlist features and how they help creators work faster.
1. Artlist AI Voiceover & AI Voice Generator
Artlist’s AI Voiceover is a full AI voice generator built specifically for video creators.
According to the help docs, it supports:
-
Text-to-Voice – type your script, select a voice and generate narration.
-
Voice-to-Voice – upload your own audio and transform it into another voice while keeping the same pacing and emotion.
-
Voice cloning – create a custom voice model you can reuse across projects.
-
Multiple languages & accents – 20+ languages with several English accents (US, UK, Australian, Indian, etc.).
The model is trained to capture subtle inflections and emotion, so it aims to sound as close to a human voice as possible.
Because it’s integrated into the Artlist ecosystem, you can also use the Premiere Pro extensions to generate voiceovers inside your edit and even get music/SFX suggestions that fit your script.
Best for: YouTube explainers, promos, tutorials, social ads, podcasts and last-minute script changes where hiring a VO artist would be too slow or expensive.
2. Artlist AI Video Generator
The AI video generator lets you turn static images into short, animated clips with smooth camera motion.
Key points:
-
Converts image → video with parallax movement, zooms and pans.
-
Offers multiple visual styles (cinematic, stylized, etc.).
-
Designed so non-editors can create usable B-roll and background clips.
It’s powered by an AI credits system shared with the image and voiceover tools: depending on your plan (AI Suite or Artlist Max), you get a pool of credits each month and spend them based on resolution, duration and whether the video includes audio.
Best for: Social posts, intros, YouTube backgrounds, concept teasers, and quick fillers when you’re short on custom footage.
3. Artlist AI Image Generator
Artlist’s AI image generator sits alongside the video and voice tools in the AI Suite. The main site describes it as part of a package of “AI image and video generators” that accept text-to-image and image-to-image prompts.
-
Generate thumbnails, social graphics, concept art and backgrounds.
-
Edit or restyle existing images with different looks.
-
Stay within one ecosystem so your visual, audio and voice assets all live under the same license.
Because it uses the same credit pool as the video and voice tools, it’s easy to shift credits toward whichever part of your workflow needs them most that month.
4. Artlist Song Match Feature
Song Match is one of Artlist’s newest AI features. It uses audio analysis to recommend similar royalty-free tracks from the Artlist library.
How it works:
-
Paste a YouTube or Spotify link into the Artlist search bar.
-
The AI analyzes tone, tempo, mood and energy.
-
It returns a curated list of tracks from Artlist that feel like that reference song.
This is perfect when:
-
A client sends you a song you can’t legally use, but wants “something like this.”
-
You’re trying to keep a consistent musical vibe across a campaign.
-
You don’t have time to manually filter by mood/BPM.
5. Artlist Stem Tracks (Stems Music)
Artlist’s stems feature gives editors deeper control over music.
According to the docs and blog:
-
Stems are the individual components of a song (vocals, drums, bass, guitars, pads, etc.).
-
You can download stems on any Social or Pro plan that includes music, whenever the artist has provided them.
-
This lets you mute or rebalance parts of the track to fit dialogue, SFX and pacing.
Typical use-cases:
-
Drop the vocals during voiceover but keep instrumental energy.
-
Pull out or lower drums for softer sections of your edit.
-
Build your own custom arrangement from the same song (intro, build, drop, outro).
Stems effectively turn each track into a mini music kit rather than a single flat file.
6. Artlist Sound Effects Library
Artlist also includes a large sound effects (SFX) library with thousands of effects across categories like ambience, foley, transitions, realistic, and musical hits.
Features of the SFX library:
-
Unlimited downloads on eligible plans.
-
Filters for ambience, genre, realistic sounds, transitions, staff picks and top downloads.
-
All effects are pre-cleared for use in videos, ads, vlogs and more under Artlist’s licensing system.
Combined with music and stems, the SFX library lets you build a complete soundscape inside one subscription.
7. Artlist Video Templates
Under the Creative Assets section, Artlist provides a growing catalog of video templates.
Key details:
-
Hundreds of editable templates aimed at social media, promos, presentations and personal projects.
-
Filter by software (e.g., Premiere Pro, After Effects, DaVinci), category, style and technical specs.
-
Designed to be drag-and-drop: swap footage, titles and colors to match your brand.
If you’re not a motion designer, templates are a fast way to get pro-looking intros, lower thirds, slideshows and product videos without hiring an animator.
8. Artlist Premiere Pro Plugin (Library Extension & Tools)
Artlist offers a Library Extension for Adobe Premiere Pro plus a wider Tools bundle that plugs into major NLEs.
Artlist Library Extension
-
Appears as a custom panel in Premiere Pro.
-
Lets you browse, preview and download music, stems, SFX, footage and even voiceovers without leaving your timeline.
-
You can drag assets directly onto your sequence and audition alternatives quickly.
Artlist Tools & Plugins
Artlist’s “tools” package adds:
-
50+ professional plugins for color grading, VFX and motion graphics.
-
AI-assisted features like silence removal and highlight detection.
-
Central management via the Artlist Hub, so you can install and update plugins easily.
Together, these extensions keep you in the edit while still having full access to the Artlist catalog and AI features.
9. How These Features Fit Together
What makes Artlist’s feature set interesting isn’t just each tool on its own, but how they connect:
-
Use AI Image/Video tools to create visuals and B-roll.
-
Generate narration with AI Voiceover and fine-tune it with language, accent and pacing controls.
-
Find the perfect backing track using Song Match, then customize it with stems.
-
Layer in SFX and video templates for polish.
-
Pull it all together inside the Premiere Pro plugin, without constantly switching apps.
Because everything lives under one subscription and one licensing system, you can focus on the creative decisions instead of legal and technical friction.
