  • Full 44.1kHz stereo studio-quality audio output
  • Real vocal synthesis with emotion & timbre control
  • Extend, remix, and iterate on any generated track
  • Multi-lingual lyric support in 50+ languages

From Idea to Full Track in 4 Steps

No music theory. No DAWs. No experience needed.

Step 01

Describe Your Song

Type your idea in plain English — mood, genre, instruments, tempo, lyrics, or a reference style like "sounds like early 2000s Coldplay".

Step 02

Choose Your Model

Pick Suno v5.5 for the most realistic output, or choose an earlier model for different aesthetic flavors and speed trade-offs.

Step 03

Generate & Refine

Suno creates two variations. Extend sections, add verses, change the vibe, or blend two tracks together with a single click.

Step 04

Export & Publish

Download WAV, MP3, or FLAC stems. Publish directly to Spotify, SoundCloud, YouTube or share a Suno link instantly.

      How Credits Work

      Credits are Suno's currency. Every song generation costs credits. Understanding the system helps you get the most out of your plan.

      💡 The Basics

      Each time you generate a song, credits are deducted. Generating produces 2 variations — each costs credits.

      Premier Plan
      10,000

      credits per month, ≈ 2,000 songs ($30/mo)

      Prompt Exploration

      ⚡ Pro Tip: Maximize Your Credits

      • ✓ Use Extend to lengthen a song you love — cheaper than regenerating
      • ✓ Write detailed prompts the first time to reduce retries
      • Remix an existing track to iterate, not regenerate from scratch
      • ✓ Annual billing gives 20% off — more credits per dollar

      The Prompt Guide

      The better your prompt, the better your song. Suno understands natural language, music theory terms, artist references, and mood descriptors. Here's how to master it.

      ✅ Good vs. Bad Prompts

      ❌ Bad Prompt

      "Make a song"

      Too vague. No genre, mood, instruments, tempo, or context given.

      ✅ Great Prompt

      "Upbeat indie pop with jangly guitar and female vocals about summer road trips, sounds like early 2000s The Strokes energy"

      Genre + instruments + mood + subject + reference artist = excellent output.

      💡 Prompt Tips

      🎸
      Name Instruments

      Specifically say "acoustic guitar, cello, and synth bass" rather than generic "music".

      🎭
      Describe the Mood

      Use emotional words: melancholic, euphoric, tense, nostalgic, eerie, triumphant.

      🎤
      Specify Vocals

      "Male vocals", "female singer", "harmonies", "no vocals", "spoken word", "raspy voice".

      🎵
      Reference Artists

      "Sounds like Radiohead meets Daft Punk" or "early Taylor Swift acoustic style".

      ⏱️
      Set the Tempo

      "Slow and dreamy at 70 BPM", "fast-paced 140 BPM", "midtempo groove".

      🔄
      Use Custom Mode

      Write your own lyrics using [Verse], [Chorus], [Bridge] structure tags for full control.

      📚 Prompt Examples by Genre

      🏷️ Style Tags Reference

      In Custom Mode, use comma-separated tags in the "Style of Music" field:

      📝 Custom Lyrics Template

      [Intro] * Optional spoken intro or ambient sound cue * [Verse 1] Your verse lyrics here Second line Third line Fourth line [Pre-Chorus] Build-up line here Another build line [Chorus] Main hook here — this repeats Memorable second line Third line of the hook Final hook line [Verse 2] Continue the story... [Bridge] Contrasting emotional section [Outro] * fade, repeat chorus, or end *
