Suno AI Music Generator

A comprehensive guide to using the Suno Music Generator for creating custom music tracks.

This guide explains how to use the Suno AI model interface on HypeClip to create original music tracks with artificial intelligence.

Interface Overview

The Suno AI interface provides several key controls for music generation:

Title Field

Enter a descriptive name for your track. This title identifies your music in the library and helps organize your creations.

Best Practices:

  • Use clear, descriptive titles that reflect the song's content or mood
  • Keep titles concise but informative
  • Consider including genre or key elements in the title

Custom Mode Toggle

When enabled: Advanced parameters including style, title, and lyrics are used for precise control over your composition.

When disabled: Only the prompt is considered, with Suno handling all creative decisions automatically.

Recommended Usage:

  • Start with Custom Mode disabled for quick experimentation
  • Enable Custom Mode when you need specific control over lyrics, structure, or musical elements
  • Custom Mode works best when you have a clear vision for your song

Instrumental Toggle

When enabled: Generates instrumental tracks without vocals.

When disabled: Creates complete songs with both vocals and instrumental accompaniment.

Note: In Custom Mode with instrumental enabled, the prompt field becomes optional since no lyrics are needed.

Writing Effective Prompts

The prompt field accepts up to 200 characters and serves as your primary creative input. Effective prompts include four key components:

Examples:

Consider Song Structure

Iterate and Refine

  • Use initial generations as starting points
  • Build upon successful elements in subsequent attempts

Troubleshooting Common Issues

Generic or Unexpected Results:
