Musixmatch Studio is the all-in-one tool for transcribing, syncing, translating, and tagging lyrics. where you can transcribe the lyrics to your favorite songs.

We highly recommend you to use the Studio on the Google Chrome browser for better performance. ✨

If you're accessing it, you should have already reviewed and studied our Writing Guidelines, and now it's your time to apply all the knowledge you have learned!

Firstly, how do I access it?

  • While navigating the Musixmatch website and/or apps, you'll see action buttons such as the one shown below. This particular one confirms you can translate the song, but you'll also find other types of contribution buttons such as "Add lyrics", "Tag" or "Sync".

  • You can also access the Studio via the contribution page on the website. https://www.musixmatch.com/contribute ✨. There, you'll see prompts like "New releases without lyrics" and "Artist with missing lyrics" sections, which will take you to the studio when clicked.

  • On our mobile apps you'll equally find "Contribute" buttons in the menu.

  • Tasks in the mission system will also be worked via the Studio. Browse your available mission on https://curators.musixmatch.com/missions
