This space is going to get very full, very fast. Udio just launched and improves upon "SOTA" Suno. This will just keep coming. Focus on product. Give actual music producers something they'll find useful. These fad, meme products will compete on edge model capability for 99% of users and ignore serving actual music producers. I'd like a product with more control, and it doesn't appear Suno or Udio are interested in th…

I'm not sure its that they aren't interested, I think its just really hard.

I've tried to look a little bit around but couldn't find anything, so I'll ask here. Any plans to release the model(s) under an open license ?

This would be so cool, but we need to think more about how we could do it and make enough money in the future to train more models with even cooler features.

Check out what Udio can produce. It's so far ahead. https://twitter.com/nasescobar316/status/1777481957774872704 https://twitter.com/apples_jimmy/status/1777905772384678149 https://twitter.com/HalimAlrasihi/status/1778118063138673137 https://twitter.com/AngryTomtweets/status/177811764524768059... https://twitter.com/AngryTomtweets/status/177811769943385715...

meh, Suno v3 still has better quality for me personally

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

Spotify is getting flooded with AI generated music. It is absolutely something people will use to just generate the music they want to hear.

Ultimately though, what would be the point of spotify? Anybody will be able to generate 24/7 of songs based on their mood or a few keywords.

It will radically change the music landscape and how people "consume" music.

Exactly. As of now, Suno can be used as template but you still need to go to DAW and make it from scratch. So... individual tracks for each instrument/vocals that can be exported and brought into DAW is what is needed. For me anyway.

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.

Congrats on the launch! I had a similar issue as the comment above. I put in the prompt "Celtic symphonic rock" (which seems to work on Suno.ai) and some lyrics. The output ended up being just readings of the lyrics without any music, except some artifact-level whispering of music when the voice was silent. Would definitely love to see some demos of what it can produce!

I cant tell, will this let me upload an instrumental track and change the genre/instrument makeup? When I tried, I might've overwritten the prompt.

Upload an instrumental track, select it, then click "Use as Rhythm Control." Once you do that, you can give the model any new prompt and it should use the same rhythm (you may need to adjust the control strength depending on genre.)

Genre changes for melodies/etc are coming once we finish variations (partial renoising like SDEdit basically).
