In this comprehensive guide, we'll break down everything you need to know to craft prompts that produce amazing AI-generated music. ## Understanding Suno's Prompt System Suno AI uses two main types of prompts: 1. **Style Prompt**: Describes the musical style, genre, mood, and production elements 2. **Lyrics Prompt**: The actual lyrics for the song (optional) ## The Formula for Success A great Suno prompt includes: - **Genre**: Be specific (e.g., "indie pop" not just "pop") - **Mood**: Emotional tone (energetic, melancholic, dreamy) - **Tempo**: BPM range or description - **Instruments**: Key instruments you want featured - **Vocal Style**: Type of vocals (male/female, style, character) ## Pro Tips 1. **Be Specific**: "Upbeat synth-pop with 80s vibes" beats "happy song" 2. **Use References**: "Like The Weeknd meets Daft Punk" helps AI understand 3. **Layer Details**: Add production style, mixing preferences, and atmosphere 4. **Test and Iterate**: Refine prompts based on results ## Common Mistakes to Avoid - Being too vague - Overloading with conflicting styles - Forgetting to specify tempo or key - Not including vocal characteristics ## Example Prompts **Good**: "Upbeat indie pop song, 120 BPM, featuring electric guitars and synth pads, male vocals with a warm, slightly raspy tone, positive and energetic mood, reminiscent of The 1975" **Bad**: "Make a good song" ## Conclusion Mastering Suno prompts takes practice, but with these guidelines, you'll be creating professional-quality AI music in no time!
