What is Cado? How do I make my first song?

Cado is a music creation app that lets anyone build a full song — no experience needed. You make music by layering ready-made sounds (piano chords, drums, bass, etc.), arranging them into sections like intro, verse, and chorus, and adding vocals on top.

How to Make Your First Song

  1. Open the editor and pick a song starter or an empty project.

  2. Add a few sounds to build a section.

  3. Duplicate and rearrange sections to shape your track.

  4. Add vocals, if you want them.

Most people get to a song they're happy with in their first sitting. There's no right or wrong way to start — experiment and keep what sounds good to you.
