Suno snaps up WavTool for its AI music editing tools amid ongoing dispute with music labels


AI music company Suno acquired WavTool, a browser-based AI DAW. This aims to improve editing capabilities for musicians.

Country musician Tony Justice and his music label, 5th Wheel Records, filed a lawsuit against Suno earlier this month, alleging that Suno used copyrighted sound recordings to train its AI music generator. Suno acquired WavTool a few months ago, with the browser-based DAW going offline in November. Legal disputes often shake investor confidence, so the announcement of this acquisition may serve as a way to reassure them that the company remains committed to growth.
