The beats are really strong/ distracting , can't really listen.. but generation is otherwise amazing.

I've been using Suno since it debuted on Discord and have rolled 100k songs, so I know cherry-pickin one generation that worked don't prove this model isn't shitty.

v6 is such a drastic improvement from 4.5 in every genre I've tried I don't understand how anyone could say otherwise. Do you make generic house music or something? 4 on the floor club music? v6 is so much more creative than 4.5 there is no comparison

NegativeResults & quality

Yes custom model, and uploading my own audio, but the variety slider takes my unique prompts and totally destroys them with cliches that make everything sound like generic top 40 Musak

PositiveResults & quality

that did work, thanks. first time sound has been worth using!

Create a Sound then use that. That's how I got a Cuica drums finally. And I got jaw harp.

NegativeResults & quality

Turning off variety mode doesn't eliminate the problems I have with v6. I just hate how v6 sounds full stop.

NegativeResults & quality

and the audio weirdness still persist even with variety off.

This shit doesn’t even scratch the surface of 4.5

You can't ask Suno to reproduce an instrument that is not in its library (which is not extraordinarily extensive, by the way). Going outside this list exposes you to restitution quirks.

On ne peut pas demander à Suno de reproduire un instrument qui n'est pas dans sa bibliothèque (laquelle n'est d'ailleurs pas extraordinairement étendue). Sortir de cette liste expose à des bizarreries de restitution.

many things, it ignoring most of the tags in a song, instruments missing, also double price of credits (huge nerf) and still get degradation, also can't use V6 model without pro sub despite having a lot of credits (unlike before, another huge nerf), also that big lack of clarity

Suno V.6 no longer reflects what up to V.5.5 it had managed to deliver as a product; by now it's useless for them to come and tell fairy tales and therefore give money to a product that is no longer valid.

Suno V.6 non rispecchia più quanto sino alla V.5.5 era riuscito a dare come prodotto, ormai è inutile che vengano a raccontare delle favole e quindi regalare denaro proprio ad un prodotto non più valido.

NegativeResults & quality

If they don't change something (which I doubt, since it was running on illegal data), the new restricted data they train on leads to really bad results. Clear and easy prompts get ignored completely and everything sounds the same. If I do 50 songs, it is the same idea over and over with very little variation.

PositiveResults & quality

What works here is that AI is serving the creative idea, not replacing it. It makes it so much easier to connect with both the music and the characters on an emotional level.

NegativeResults & quality

My goal is to complain so Suno sees it and tries to improve. Because it's really bad.

From Day 1 v6 was noticeably worse.

I captured essentially the exact same moment in the original cover of October 5th 2024 (made with V5.0 or V5.5) and compared it to a V6 remaster October 5th 2024 V6 Remaster (Boost at Normal, as the other options were simply unlistenable).

According to my ears, I can clearly determine V6 is a regression.

PositiveResults & quality

Hip-hop boom-bap tracks sounds greatly on v6... For real.

NegativePrice & limitsResults & quality

You know that, But I cannot believe that you actually think that little toy you pay $30mo to make yourself something that sounds so incredibly worse than what can be made in just seconds for free is an actual DAW.

So I just added Wesley Snipes to the very end of the prompt generated it got two songs then I hit the shuffle button that cleans up your prompts using the Wesley Snipes still in there got two more and wouldn't you know all four of them were better than the ones I was judging.

This is where things get interesting. I was working on an actual song of mine and I had a few versions of it I was trying to score because they are all very good and had things that I liked.

PositiveResults & quality

I use Suno to turn it into songs I can listen to. Being able to hear my own words in a song. I post some to YouTube, and have even made a couple videos. The videos are made through ai and are honestly laughably bad. But it’s kind of fun making the videos regardless of how bad they are. The music is the main part though, it’s my own lyrics. And I spend many hours, and many credits on Suno trying to generate the perfect song.

PositiveResults & quality

It works great for rap, idk what everyone is crying about, wah fucking wah, you could never make music before, now given the privelidge to be able without any real skill, yet people are still complaining, what a arrogant race have we turned into 🫪

PositiveResults & quality

Despite this the music I create with Suno - to me - is way better than most of the cr@p in the radio today.

NegativeResults & quality

The second anyone ai critical hears the synthetic sheen and AI artifacts, they’ll write it off as slop. It won't matter that the melodies and lyrics took twenty years to write, the software just flattens your intent into a statistical average.

If i listen example the V6 Suno Labs new genre wheel samples where most of them sound really good. Question is why our songs turn out much worse (not always thats the strange part). Makes me think those Lab examples are fine tuned and not realistic output what especially paying customers excpect to hear using pro model.

NegativeResults & quality

Suno is yet to release a model that’s not just a demo tool to be reproduced.

NegativeResults & quality

I refunded my pro , v5 was so much better in my opinion. Sad

MixedResults & quality

Again, I'm convinced that V6 is still a much better engine then the former ones, but still agree it's limited in it's creativity if you don't kick it in the balls first.

Maybe Suno isn't the best for Metal, but there are other options!

NegativeResults & quality

I came here to search for answers to why my metals song are so trash now with v6. I see I'm not alone. I have good songs way back from v3.5 and saved voices on each version in between that sound trash on v6.

NegativeResults & quality

Every single genre I’ve tried with all the 6 models is garbage. 5.5 made me incredible songs I still listen to. Every session I try to go in and make something with 6 it’s lifeless, muddy, and sounds like AI made it.

NegativeResults & quality

I got better out of v5 than this. Anything I make is ok, or worse. I only got 1 that is good. Nothing is up to my standards.

MixedResults & quality

I've actually found v6 to be far better at novelty, complex rhythms, and breakdowns. The vocals are a lot better too*... * here is the catch though....all of the above only apply when you have a good persona or voice applied BUT the real bummer is for all of the improvements I listed V6 in. My experience has been absolute garbage with consistency. Like, I haven't found one usable song yet. I have found some really cool shards. And even up to around half of a song or so. Just simply amazing stuff, but nothing cohesive enough to be called a full song!

NegativeResults & quality

This is why I gave up using it for metal and just move to experiment with other genres for the meantime. I feel very sorry for those who use Suno exclusively for metal. Cancelling their sub is completely justified in this situation.
