How it works
A quick tour of what the generator does well, what it can't do, and how to coax good results out of it.
Two song lengths
- Clip — always 30 seconds. Cheap. Great for iterating on a prompt before committing.
- Pro — typically a couple of minutes. You can nudge duration in the prompt but can't pin it precisely.
Limitations to know about
- Safety filters. Prompts that name specific artists or request copyrighted lyrics get blocked. There's no workaround.
- Watermark. Every generated audio file contains an inaudible identification watermark. It doesn't affect listening.
- One-shot. You can't iteratively refine a clip with follow-up prompts. Each generation is independent — use "Remix this prompt" to restart from an existing recipe.
- Variation. The same prompt produces a different song each time. To get something repeatable, be specific — name instruments, BPM, key, vocal style, and structure. The richer the prompt, the closer subsequent runs sound to each other.
Tips for better prompts
- Iterate with Clips. Cheap 30-second runs let you nail the prompt before spending Pro credits.
- Be specific. Vague gives generic. Mention instruments, BPM, key, mood, and structure.
- Use section tags.
[Verse],[Chorus],[Bridge]give the model a structure to follow. - Separate lyrics from direction. Put lyrics in their own block, away from your musical instructions.
Vocal direction
Describing the singer (gender, timbre, range) goes a long way. Some patterns that work well:
- Female Soprano — clear, crystalline timbre, agile, soaring, airy high notes.
- Female Alto — rich, warm, husky lower range, soulful, smoky with vocal fry.
- Male Tenor — bright, piercing, energetic, youthful with a nasal edge, strong belting.
- Male Baritone — deep, velvet-smooth, resonant chest voice, crooning delivery.
- Weathered Rocker — raspy, gravelly, 90s-grunge texture, strained upper range.
Other useful knobs
- Key / scale — "in G major", "D minor".
- Mood adjectives — "nostalgic", "aggressive", "ethereal", "dreamy".
- Duration cues (Pro only) — "create a 2-minute song", or use timestamps in your lyrics.
