What’s new

Suno introduced v6 on Sep 9 as three models: v6 (Pro and Premier), v6-wild for exploration (Pro and Premier) and v6-mini for everyone, with plain-language editing of parts of a song.

  • v6 is the flagship model for Pro and Premier subscribers; v6-wild is less predictable and more varied; v6-mini is faster and available to everyone.
  • Edit part of an existing song in plain language, such as changing one chorus while keeping the rest.
  • Build mashups from multiple sources in one request, and sample, isolate and build a new beat in a single workflow.
  • Create from text, audio, images and video, and change a single lyric without rebuilding the song.
  • Suno says v6 was developed with industry partners including Warner Music Group, BMG and Believe.

How to set it up: Make a song with Suno v6

Steps come from the vendor's own pages or docs. We have not run them ourselves.

  1. Open Suno

    Go to suno.com and sign in. v6-mini is available to everyone; v6 and v6-wild need Pro or Premier.

  2. Describe the song

    Use a vibe, genre or reference, or upload audio, an image or a video as the starting point.

  3. Edit instead of regenerating

    Ask for a change to one section, such as the chorus, or one lyric line, rather than rebuilding the whole song.
