Cover Song Identification

ACRCloud Cover Song Identification finds cover versions of a music track in a large music database. Cover versions share a similar melodic line with the original but can differ in key, tempo, structure, instrumentation or even genre, and Cover Song Identification identifies them, including live performances of a song.

ACRCloud Cover Song Identification helps customers organize music collections, offer new ways to discover music and protect music copyright. Because it finds versions of a song that are not the original recording, it covers performances that a lookup of the released recording alone would not find.

Use ACRCloud Cover Song Identification when the audio is a different performance of a song, such as a cover or a live version that changes the key, tempo, structure or instrumentation. ACRCloud Music Recognition is the right choice when you want to identify the released recording itself, for example music playing in a video.

You can start testing ACRCloud Cover Song Identification with the 14-day free trial in the ACRCloud console, which includes full API access and requires no credit card. To discuss a cover song project for your catalog or platform, you can also contact the ACRCloud sales team through the contact page.
