Suno's upgraded AI song generator might get even skeptics' toes tapping

AI song creator Suno has opened the doors to a new virtual studio, releasing the Suno v4 platform for music creation. The much-teased upgrade lets users make better, longer, more creative songs and is looking to attract professional artists and producers interested in incorporating AI into music-making.

“When we launched v3 earlier this year, it opened up new possibilities for music creation. Post v3 launch, we’ve refined what worked and added more where it mattered most,” Suno wrote in a blog post. “The result is v4—a major update that takes music creation to the next level. v4 delivers cleaner audio, sharper lyrics, and more dynamic song structures.”

The change is obvious just by hearing how synthetic voices sound on Suno v4. The improved vocal clarity and tone are no longer stuck in the audio uncanny valley. They sound like real people. And, if you made a song with the older versions of the platform, you can use the new Remaster tool to enhance the track to match the new level of quality while keeping all of the elements you like.

Suno v4 also has new user tools that will likely encourage extended use. The Personas feature takes those new, improved voices and makes them part of your library. Essentially, you can apply an AI voice you like to any song you create. The consistent singing style across multiple tracks means you could theoretically create whole albums starring a single voice you like, as though the artificial voice were a singer you had under contract.
