Check out what Udio can produce. It's so far ahead.

Good luck! I just tried it and the interface was a bit confusing. It allowed me to only fill the last input in the form, which is usually a bit counterintuitive. I presentes this prompt "Noir detective music from the 60s. Low tempo, trumpet and walking bass" and got back a one-note only song that has nothing to do with the prompt if not for some lyrics that were a bit ridiculous. This is just feedback, I'm passionate…

Weird. We pushed a BPM assist feature last night that may have unforeseen consequences for genres we didn't test (we tried pop, edm, classic rock). I'll turn it off by default for now. Try checking the instrumental box too.

What quality are you producing here ? Suno has this issue too, but everything sounds like it's washed out or something. As if you recorded it from a different room. Still I love this, ultimately I think it'll be a tool musicians use vs something for creating stand alone art

The audio is 44.1khz stereo, but all of us use autoencoders so the songs will fit in a transformer's context window, and huge compression will affect quality. We're definitely working on better ones, though!

Can Sonauto (or any tool currently) take an instrumental track and lyrics as input and generate vocals?

Rhythm Control can do this for a drum line, and we have a variations feature that should be able to do this for instruments as well.

I'd definitely pay more for higher quality!

Good work

I was just trying similar apps last week and I was so frustrated with the amount of options and menus to get through before I could generate anything. Not to mention the fact that half of these services ended up asking me to pay per setting. I have to say this was the least painful service to use this far. Pretty impressive output for so little input.

Thanks! We have lots of fun dials for people who want them but they're all hidden by default and shouldn't be needed.
