None of these "songs" have any emotion.. AI music just doesn't make me "feel" anything yet.

#63I want to say two things -- one congrats - I am sure your team has been working exceptionally hard to develop this - and the songs sound reasonable good for AI! Two I am soo competely unenthusiastic about AI music and it infiltrating the music world - all of it sounds like fingernails on a chalkboard. Just mainstream overproduced low quality radio music. I know its a stepping stone but it kills me to listen to it rig…
Also, our model specifically excels at songs from the era before overproduction. Try asking for a Johnny Cash or Ella Fitzgerald-style country or swing/jazz song!
Here's an example: https://sonauto.ai/songs/taJX3GrKZW7C5qOhjopr

99% of the population finds this easier than setting up a user/pass. If you care about this, understand that you will not be the target user for most new apps. Incredible that this comes up on so many new Show HNs.
As a community made up largely of picky nerds and pedants, it doesn't seem incredible at all that this comes up so often. More like inevitable.

#65Congratulations on the launch! I was recently really impressed by the state of AI-generated music, after listening to the April Fools LessWrong album https://www.lesswrong.com/posts/YMo5PuXnZDwRjhHhE/lesswrong-... . They claim it took them ~100 hours to generate 15 songs. Can't wait for the day I can instantly generate a song based on a random blog post or group chat history, this seems like a step in that direction
Perhaps not exactly "instantly generate a song based on a random blog post or group chat history", but more like "instantly generate a song based on an input prompt sentence" is suno.ai -- you should check it out!
Re: Show HN: Sonauto – A more controllable AI music creator
#66I play guitar, but I'm not much of a guitarist or singer. I really like songwriting, not trying to be polished as a performer. So I intermittently look into the AI world to see whether it has tools I could use to generate a higher-quality song demo than I could do on my own.
I've been looking for something that could take a chord progression and style instructions and create a decent backing track for a singer to sing over.
But your saying "Very soon you'll also be able to generate proper variations of an uploaded or previously generated song (e.g., you could even sing into Voice Memos for a minute and upload that!)" is very intriguing. I mean, I can sing and play, it just isn't very professional. But if I could then have an AI take what I did and just... make it better... that would be kind of awesome.
In fact, I believe you could have a very big market among songwriters if you could do that. What I would love to see is this:
My guitar parts are typically not just strummed, but involve picking, sometimes fairly intricate. I'm just not that good at it. It would be fantastic to have an AI that would just take would I played and fix it so that it's more perfect.
And then to have a tool where I could say, "OK, now add a bass part," and "OK, now add drums" would be awesome.

Re: Show HN: Sonauto – A more controllable AI music creator
#68What 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
> 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 t…
I suspect record labels might train their own models. I know for sampling, being able to just create a royalty loop without worrying about clearing anything is cool.
Re: Show HN: Sonauto – A more controllable AI music creator
#69I'm interested to hear more about your statement of "Our goal is to enable more of you, not replace you." Speaking as a musician who plays real instruments (as opposed to electronic production): how does this help me? And how does this enable more of me? I am asking with an open mind, with no cynicism intended.
If the future of music was truly just typing some text into a box and taking or leaving what the machine gives you that would be kinda depressing. We want you to be able to upload recordings of your real instruments and do all sorts of cool things with them (e.g., transform them, generate vocals for your guitar riff, use the melody as a jazz song, or just get some inspiration for what to add next). IMO AI alone will…
I'm just asking to try to build some intuition on what people who actually train soa models think were capabilities are heading.
Either way, congrats on the launch :)
