Udio rolled out a new feature to its AI-generation service allowing users to upload a music file to be extended by the system. As a musician with a bunch of tracks in progress, I decided to run my own music through its AI to see how it does as a collaborator. Needless to say, I'm impressed.

@unstabledelusion 21 день назад

I always had idea for songs but not a band to create with. I started using udio one month ago and I am uploading all on my channel, for now mostly im the one hearing my musics, but feels good to listen those creations. Suno i didnt like that much because the music comes ready...in Udio as you said we need to extend and experience the music 30s at a time to feel if it is the thing that you designed in your head. I enjoy more this process. I always write the lyrics because gpt feels "cold" in my opinion. But Udio will never " win musicians over" but it is a nice tool that fills a gap of new content that it is real and expected due to the ton of work that a band needs to compose. I wrote a lot of diferent content and genres. It is a lot of fun to try it.

Just know that there's is a bit off sounding instrument or vocals, but your own is a plus, which renders like it needs work. Though I'm not a professional producer, you do hear it and need to fix the guitar or redo any other instrument that has a lot of noise, which I can't describe, but it's there.

If you want to get more prompt coherence, switch to manual mode. In its current mode the AI will change your prompt description, often changing the genres completely. Hit the "x" button to clear the suggested genres, you will then see a "manual mode" button underneath the "create" button. Click just to the left of "manual mode" and you will see a toggle switch, turn it on. Now the exact genre prompts you entered will be used.

I’ve been using Udio uploading excerpts of my material and I have to concede to the fact that it baffles me as to how on earth, it comes up with amazing options! It replicated my guitar sound as well as, vocals! Well, 95%! It is disquieting, however.

@Techsploder Месяц назад

Yeah it is quite something, eh? I haven't gotten any sort of useful replication of my voice however. How did you pull that off?

@rbus Месяц назад

I’ve been messing daily with all sorts of generative ai for years now and I think the key to pushing AI to generate great unique interesting stuff in a prompt isn’t so much about picking qualities you want but picking wild things that can’t possibly work together like “saint-saenz, speed metal, meat grinder, synthwave, analog warmth, gypsy jazz” because prompts are like sticking concepts into a boxing ring and letting them all battle to the death, and the result of this chaos may be genres of music you’ve never heard before but holy shit it has some best aspects of them all.

@Techsploder Месяц назад

Yeah I mean sometimes the word salad of genres produces some really cool and unpredictable output... But sometimes the output just feels random and disjointed from the prompt itself. Hard to know which part of what you put in there actually DOES what you hear.

@PianoVampire 23 дня назад

I don't actually think it's an update - it's basically their training model - that's how they made it work in the first place, they fed it other songs and it spits out something very similar but not quite the same.

@Techsploder 22 дня назад

Well, the update is the UPLOAD feature which Udio didn't have until recently. Everything else about the service, in my understanding, is basically the same. And of course, I'm sure their model will improve and refine over time, particularly as any music uploaded with this feature then becomes part of the training data (at least that's my interpretation of what I read in the terms of service)

@LynnColeMusic Месяц назад

Okay, so watched the whole thing. You want Ripxdaw. You need it if this is the way you're using Udio. Now, to the rest of it. Totally agree with you on lyrics. None of the ai music machines are good for lyrics, chatgpt can't write anything but bubble gum pop well, and even there, it doesn't follow the same kinds of writing conventions that modern songwriters do. You can always tell when something's written by ai. I like it for vocals, and toplines. I use it against my own lyrics (which are designed to be bendy and challenging for the ai). Think of ai like a creative gateway drug. When you get deep into it, you'll realize that ai by itself isn't enough. If you're an artist, you're going to hit this place where you just want more. For me that meant learning how to play an instrument, and getting deeper into the technical aspects of music production. Doing it, "the old fashioned way," lol, if you will. Another trick you can do with Udio is backfilling. After you render your clip, there's no reason to keep the original piece you put in. You can backfill over that, and essentially have a new song, once your work has been spread over and through the new comp. Just remember, Udio and Suno are musical instruments. They're instruments that default to passable, but doing it well is still something that takes time, that you have to learn, like any other musical instrument. Getting it right is not always easy

Like you, I definitely do see Udio and AI in general as a tool and a collaborative partner. What I'd like to see from Udio, Suno, or other, as soon as possible, is to enable us as users to have more control; to be able to act more as a producer. Ideally, have the music transcribed so we can go in and change notes and chords as we need to. It may seem like a lot to ask, but if Finale and Sibileus have it, I'm sure these AI companies can implement a MuseScore-type tool. As a musician, I am not at all intimidated by this technology. I've found it to be very helpful. My only desire at this time is for it to enable the users to have more control and act as producers.

Appears to be a good product. I will try and spread to My youngest Son. I am a hobbyist musician since the 1970s - Drums, Keys/Piano, Bass Guitar, Music Software. My late-eldest Son put Me on to FL Studio in 2008. Once I started using FL Studio/etc. and got good just after a few months of learning it. Given My acoustic/analog music background I felt _kinda_ guilty making music in a fraction of the time a person who plays one instrument for 20 years to master. It took Me awhile to warm up to A.I. of any caliber - visual/construction/design/audio.

@Eclipsing Месяц назад

Outputting the actual stems is a feature on audio’s radar. Also, if you want it to transition with some kind of beat as it progresses, just mention that in your prompt. Might require manual mode, but might not. Claude Opus creates much better lyrics and you add those in manual mode. It’s best to give Claude a detailed textual walk thru of your thoughts, verse by verse. This is after you have started your Claude/ChatGP prompt like this: Write me lyrics for a synth pop, ambient, space anthem with a instrumental break, and a synthesizer solo in positions that make sense. I want 3 verses. Give me a drop near the end. I want an 8 line double chorus. Enclose section tags in square brackets like [Chorus]. Use simple wording that is more conversational speech format. I want to start with the idea that I’m having a bad day. Progress to meeting someone who magically makes me feel like the sun is peaking thru. Then end with the idea that the two of us are so comfortable together and might be soulmates. Make the chorus magically catchy. The above helps Claude, or ChatGPT give you better lyrics to work with and possible edit to really include your creativity.

I'm also a music producer and this is a game changer. When they integrate this into stems or within DAWs, you can kiss spotify bye bye. There's no way both companies did this independently.

A lot of real musicians think that this Ai stuff is cheating. I've been playing guitar for 40 years and I see Ai as no different than collaborating with other "real" musicians. For example: If you write a song or a guitar riff or a hook. You would take that idea to your bandmates and after collaborating with them you might end up with something totally different sounding. This is a common everyday occurrence with musicians. So for those of us that aren't in bands and don't have a network of seasoned musicians at our fingertips, now we can hear those ideas that otherwise never would have seen the light of day. BTW, if we have access to this for free just imagine what recording artists have access to in a multi million dollar recording studio.

I have uploaded excerpts from some (my own) finished pop rock productions (1990 - 1995) (mixed and mastered). The songs were chopped up, the orders were reversed and the melodies were sung improvised by a different voice. But in the end it got very worse.

@@Techsploder Clear yes. A musician can now mix AI-generated parts with real recordings on his DAW. For example, I would record all instruments with real singer myself - but add the choir to my singer with AI voices. That sounds better than having the same singer sing with herself 10 times.

I hope the emphasis will end up being on the songwriting rather than some of chance you happen to meet likeminded that contribute to the message and creativity to contribute to the intriguing loose interpretation that leaves the listener to interpret the text how it applies to their circumstances or emotional state, made by songwriters. Not worshipping the dull minded musician that can’t express the music with putting words to it. But I am biased. I find people unable to express themselves with words to convey a meaning that music uplifts, when music itself apparently is already replaceable by AI. My only issue is the compilation time that takes time. I would have been finished with most I made with better control over the end results. Lyrics take like, what? 2 minutes raw time to be written down? My patience is non existent.

You told it to write lyrics about a terrible topic and then said the lyrics are terrible. Wouldn't you have terrible lyrics in a song that has a bad theme? FADR does good stem separation for cheap. I'm sure it's only a matter of time before they add that in as an option to music generators, but for now FADR is probably the best subscription for unlimited stem separation, and you could just take the remix/extensions you like and break them down into their stems through FADR for the times that you like 'this part' but not 'that part'.

@Techsploder Месяц назад

I suppose that's fair, I didn't give it much to work on with the lyrical approach. With practice I'm sure I can get a better understanding of how do get lyrics and vocals that match a particular esthetic that I want. As a vocalist myself, though, not sure if that's a need I really have to fill. Might as well just do my own and leave the AI as an instrumental element collaborator.

@Techsploder 7 дней назад

Well that's a great question. I think personal ethics will vary between person to person so if you feel inclined to disclose, I suppose you should. Let me ask you a question though. If you open a piano roll on your DAW and hit a random sequence that lays itself out, and it sounds great and you use it... Do you then tell people "I used the random feature in my DAW to create this sequence." No. And I do believe there are similarities here. No not 1 to 1, but if not one, then why the other? Just something to ponder.

@annode 6 дней назад

@@Techsploder You make a good point. Referring to what some professional song writers have spoken about concerning guilt feelings that they did not write their song(s), Simon and Garfunkel - 'Fakin' it'. some writers already have guilt even without technology haha. Now we have tech that can possibly write the hardest part of a popular song...the chorus. (for example) "Did you write that song? It's great!!!" "Well...ahhhh yes!" When an established artist such as Bowie hires a musician to contribute on a project, I believe Bowie expects him to contribute his talents and skills in total. This may be some writing contributions in some smaller ways. The musician might consider this contribution as work security that they will be considered for future projects. They sign off the contribution for just a salary. This is understood between the artist and hired musicians. Writers like Bowie and Jimmy Page based their careers on other peoples contributions, so why not Ai then? But where do we draw the line for when do we give credit to the Ai ? Say the Ai writes the lyrics and we change a few words here and there. Or the Ai writes the chorus. Maybe it will just be 'understood' that 'this artist or that artist' notes that "Ai may have been used in the creation of this music" . End of story.
