Master Udio with THIS - Make Better Songs Instantly 

Just announced by Udio: Hi everyone, We've rolled out a few cool updates to the platform: Track length limit is now 15 minutes. Enjoy generating prog epics and extended trance mixes. Context length for extensions has increased from 30 seconds to 2 minutes. This means Udio can "see" more of your track when generating an extension. In practice it means you can reference and repeat audio from further away in the track. Consistent choruses are now easier to achieve than ever. You can now switch between the flat and the tree view in "My Creations". In the tree view, children tracks (e.g., extensions) are displayed underneath parent tracks. Please keep the feedback coming, and let us know if you have any issues with these features in particular.

For those looking for the meta tags taught in this video: [Verse x] [Chorus] [Chorus repeats] [Verse repeats] - Repeats the pattern more or less of the previous verse melody [Interlude] [Instrumental] [ Solo] [Voiceover] - Speech to text [Spoken] - As if said by someone [Laughter] - Like crowd laughter

Okay NGL this is pretty much the definitive video to take advantage of Udio. Focus watched till the end. Thx.

Hi, Thank you for that nice video. Here is roughly 30 tags or so you can try [Verse] [Chorus] [Verse] [Chorus-CHOIR ONLY] [Chorus][CHOIR ONLY] Can sometimes work better if broken up Add descriptive Style Words to metatags to guide how the lyrics should be sung. [Sad Verse] [Happy Chorus] [Female Vocal Verse] [Choir Chorus] Use musical terms to influence the genre. [Rapped Verse] [Powerpop Chorus] You can also also try to put it all together. [Verse][Powerful Male & Female Vocals][Powerfull Choir] or test to write it i different ways [Verse, Powerful Male vocal, Female Vocal, female only Choir] [Verse-Powerful Male vocal, Heavy guitar riffs and Drums, Female only Choir] Had some great results with where first two lines can be Female vocal and the last 2 lines a male vocal in a verse for example. Choir will sing words withing ( ) sings at end at most times then. Works really good with symphonic or musical style songs. Tips to test it with: Symphonic Metal Futuristic Opera Broadway Musical Pre-chorus and Bridge [Pre-Chorus] [Bridge] [Shout] [Whimsical] [Melancholy] Song Structure Tags [Intro] [Short Instrumental Intro] - you can try pretty much any instrument piano, guitar etc [Talking Intro] [Hook] [Break] [Percussion Break] [Interlude] [melodic interlude] [Intro - Scratching record sound] [MODULATION BUILDUP] [CHOIR ONLY] Outros & Endings [Outro] [Refrain] [Big Finish] [End] [Fade Out] [Fade to End] [FULL EPIC CLIMAX] [EMOTIONAL ENDING] Instrumental Tags [Break] [Instrumental Interlude] [Melodic Bass] [Percussion Break] [Syncopated Bass] [Fingerstyle Guitar Solo] [Build] [Bass Drop] Singing Style Enter in the style description and as lyric prompts: Gregorian chant Melismatic Narration Spoken Word Sprechgesang Emotional Sultry Resonant Ethereal Lounge Singer Vocaloid Metatags Style vocals metatags [Female Narrator] [Diva Solo] [Gospel Choir] [Primal Scream] [Rap Verse] Hope you all have a great day!

What precious advice you gave me with this video, before to know about [Chorus repeats] I was always write in the prompt "the chorus must always have the same sound and rhythmic " and always worked

Your tips have been incredibly helpful, and I truly appreciate the time and effort you've invested in sharing them. However, one major challenge I encounter is the inability to edit lyrics within the initial 33 seconds while maintaining the same musical accompaniment. This limitation forces me to either create a new 33-second composition or remix, inevitably resulting in a different song or melody altogether.

I'd love a similar rundown on using the prompt field. I'm certain there must be more control to be had there. Great insights so far, thanks!

It's unbelievable that you use so many AI tools, cover the best of them, and even give tips as a power user Thank you. Have subscribed for many months now, and haven't had the need to check out other AI-related channel since you cover all the newsworthy parts of AI news and ofc AI software (still using the vocal extractor and vocal trainer)

Great video man! Thank you for making it!! Kudos!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

i got great results with 60s soul, delta blues, new wave 1980s, 60s easy listening (in the style of burt bacharach) grunge, i do think its worth using "in the style of" because it adds new prompts to direct it towards that style.

You can also use chords in udio like [Verse] [C]Turn down the [Em7] lights, turn down the [C] bed Turn down these [G/B]voices [Em7]inside my [Am7]head [C]Lay down with [Em7]me, tell me no [C] lies Just hold me [G/B]close, [Em7]don't patro[[Am7]nize Don't pator[G/D]nize [D]me

you just made my day ! my weeks and the next year to come !

This is a great class on using Udio, which i happen to use professionally now!

thank you for your fantastic tips!

This was ridiculously helpful. Thank you 🙏

Man, I really loved the 1st version sound.

Some Deathcab For Cutie vibes at 12 minutes there! 😂 This is a nice tutorial that answered a few questions that would have taken me a bit of time to discover on my own! Nice job!!! I think this service is really fantastic for creating some inspirational material to work with as a base or starting point without spending hours noodling around on a synth or guitar and basically just having the musical equivalent of "writer's block" 😋

Thanks for the data, with this I will be able to have more control over the songs I am creating, thank you

this help me alot back to the shadows i return

you guys are such amazing musicians, incredible talent! 😃

They recently increased the context length from 33 seconds to two minutes. That's why consistency works now. Greetz

Thank you so much brother!

Sweet videos man!

That was great. Ty

Tested Udio for 2 weeks. I can tell it does an amazing Metal.

Actually the artist one you mention that it can't do, for me personally it still finds something close to the style of the artist even though it says it will replace it. It just finds something similar to the style. Also, sometimes it puts words in between in the song, which I can't remove, if I like the parts on the other side of the song, which sucks. I sometimes use manual mode because it works better for what I want. It kinda forces it to be in a certain style and minimise the risk of it using words I didn't write in the lyrics. That's at least my experience. I hope they one day makes it possible to get a karaoke version of the song written, so I don't have to use a vocal remover, since that isn't as perfect as having the real instrumental of the song.

Udio creates music with a real singer's voice, in my language I asked to create music and to my surprise it was the voice of a famous singer in my country

Wouah Thanks for tips !

for Time signature, try typing in Mixed or Complex or Compound Time Signature. It Also understands Poly-Rhythmic. for rhythm add straight or swing.

incredible Video dude !! seriously

Great video! Thank you! 🙏🏼

The best tips video. Thanks.

awesome, best tutorial on Udio i have seen, thanks 💯🤙 Subscribed 👈🤙

Great video!

Some really helpful stuff in here! In the end it's all taste, but personally I think the stuff it generates when you do simple prompts like pop/country/folk/etc is really generic and boring. I mean, I could listen to any playlist on Spotify and get the same cookie-cutter music. You get much more interesting stuff if you give it one or two genres and then add descriptors. Words like Ethereal, Emotive, Pensive, Melancholy, Joyous, Mechanical, Innovative, Strange, Uptempo, Downtempo, etc will give you much more interesting music. It's hard to really control where it's going using many words, but honestly I think that's the fun of it.

You are the Boss Man!!

This tool is absolutely incredible. So fun!!! I've never had a good voice and my days touring with bands is over. This allows me to still "make " music, but better than I ever have before.

This is a very good and informative video

very helpfull :) [chorus repeat] ... thanks :)

Appreciate your video

First radio play of a Udio song was last night on Oystermouth Radio at just after 9:15pm. The show should be repeated tonight at the same time.

As a non-native English speaker I prefer Suno , because it has more capabilities when it comes to customization and using non English lyrics. I hope udio start to improve on this one!

Awesome tips and trick. Thank you so much! When manually entering lyrics, if I want that on a specific language, should I introduce [verse 1 in spanish], for example ?

many good things here in this video, bravo! thx alot! my finding: there is a prompt for scenery sounds, what i dont know how to use or what it could be. e.g. i tried to make a rocksong inspired by the "Dune" movies. and what udio did, was adding Battlesounds at the ending of the song (Laserguns, screaming, explosions), without any input by me (just made an instrumental outro). actively trying things, like [sound of sandstorm] or something didnt work at all.

Thank you!

Great presentation and very clearly explained. Glad this came up on the algorithm. About to have a crack.

thank you for your great videos. I'm currently making a lot of music on my channel with Udio

They actually improved the consistency yesterday by changing the context length from 30 secs to 2 minutes when generating clips. You can still only generate 30 sec clips but it can use up to 2 minutes as context.

I'm digging the tune

top video about Udio!

I had it switch up my genre to 1990s R&B and it was pretty spot on and worked much better than the initial prompt. Also even though it won't copy a singer, it does seem to at least take the suggestion for the vocal. I did a swing song. It replaced Dean Martin but the vocals were still close to how he sings.

Hi! Just in case anyone knows, why are the udio songs tuned to 442hz instead of 440? If I change it to 440 so I can later add more instruments it doesn't sound the same.

Can it do dialogs as well? Replica is getting a bit expensive for mere experimenting and what little I had of my demo creds are gone.

Great video. I've learned a lot, but I have a question. Can you force song structure for instrumental songs (no lyrics)? For example, I'm trying to create an instrumental and I want to maintain the themes from previous sections but the AI just wants to take the song a completely different direction. Basically every new extension sounds like a different song. In the video, you were able to maintain the the chorus and verse melodies, but how do you do that with an instrumental?

Just Thanks !!😊

Great video! Thanks! Have you figured out how to change the dynamics of the song? From melodic soothing to screaming, for example?

Can UDIO make acapella vocals for my own remixing? I just tried using udio today for the first time and it created great songs in funk and disco pop styles. I would like to get the vocals but the online stem splitters I tried don't get the voices out cleanly.

Any idea on how to make Udio to Change keys correctly esp. at last choruses? I have experienced some which changed keys but failed to maintain proper harmonies. It had off key endings. Thanks for the useful infos.

Is there a list or repository of meta tags you can provide?

I put [Bridge] after the song goes its own way and it brings back the original melody, bridging the two modes together.

Rhyming “smiled” with “ beguiled” in a song is pretty brilliant.

Hi! I would love to know how to have a consistent singer for several songs. I heard it can be done on Udio, but I'm not sure how.

AWESOME!~!!!!

I got some good results for EDM. But yeah, Suno is quite nice with it.

I can se that "House of rising sun" and "Amazing Grace" is in the library in UDIO. Chords seems to be ok. How did the include the song/melody and lyrics?

Always use MANUAL MODE slider, also with extending a track. This gives you more prompt power for the style you want to use.

Hi. Just wanted to say, that I've managed to make Udio create really catchy pop songs, for example in the style of an extremely popular swedish quartet, complete with very authentic harmonies, so Udio IS certainly totally usable for pop, although it may take several attempts (but so does most genres) - Some keywords I use are: melodic, catchy, harmonies, europop, sing along and progressive pop - I've even tried "earworm" Always making sure to have at least one of these tags near the beginning of the tag list, to make sure it doesn't get ignored. I've even had Udio throw in a children's choir - without being asked - when it fit the outro of a song, and afaik there's no actual option to request a children's choir. With regards to using "manual mode" or not, I'm more ambivalent than you, having found that Udio often completely drowns your imput in favor of all the extra suggestions and tips it insists to have. At other times, though, it works just fine. I've also finally worked out how to use the "extension placement" option: you mark everything that you want to REMAIN in the song, so the trick is to end the marking just before any unwanted excess material that may not match the part you're trying to add, like the "aaaah" in your example. Unfortunately you can't zoom, so it won't be ultra precise and the marker can be a bit finicky when selecting, but I've managed to save a couple of problematic songs this way.

Around 30:00, when you fix the HTML, the melody changed. Did you change it or is it not possible to keep it?

Do you have any suggestions for spoken word?

great vdo bro🔥🔥, i always like ur tutorial its super easy to understand and good explanation

I remade the Code Monkey song with UDIO Udio really needs to get rid of the extension malarkie and just allow you past a whole song's lyrics in, so you don't end up with starts and stops in your song. Sometimes it works out for dramatic effect, sometimes not so much so.

Two other genres it's good at are reggae and folk music. It seems to be better at the genres that are a little slower and have naturally clearer word pronunciations. A good way to speed up the song is to put as many lyrics in as you can for the 32 seconds, fewer lyrics being generated at a time the slower-paced the song will be.

I'm trying to get Udio to use a male and female voice in harmonies and separately in different verses in the same song. I've had a little success, but does anyone have any ideas?

When I stem my vocals from Udio songs and run them through Kits to change to another singer, they always cause the conversion to glitch out and randomly go up and down in pitch like bad autotune. The settings on Kits do not matter, always the same result. Probably because of certain fx and "fuzziness" from the AI generations. Is there a way to EQ or filter the vox track first to smooth it out in a way that will then be accurately interpreted by Kits for a good and useable conversion?

Thx

My only problem now is lyrics, gpt and any other chatbot sucks at it, the lyrics it makes are always robotic, poetic and metaphoric even after instructed to NOT write it in such. Thank you making an effort and sharing this 😊

Can I upload a music to the website? then extend it? I just deleted my music by mistake but luckily I downloaded it before deleting it 😌 I just want to upload it again 😅

With the chorus you don't have to use repeat. It will automatically try to repeat it. But I haven't tried to add repeat to a verse I hope that can help. Thank you! Also for those watching, Udio has since been updated since this video was made. It now doesn't matter if a clip of a song ends in something you don't want...because you can crop it out and extend from the part that you choose. Also when generating a genre prompt, you can actually just type in a description of the sound you want. Like instead of using tags like Country, Rock, Classical music, you could write "country rock song with a classical influence" similar to how AI image prompts work. I have gotten good results with this method. I want to address you saying about those genres that don't work out well in Udio...I will say it is less consistent than Suno, but when you get a good seed, it will be far better sounding than Suno because it's in stereo and vocals have more breath. Also like I said, describing the song style/sound you want can sometimes be more effective than putting in tags. Something that's not touched on in this video I want to address...with Udio, if the lyrics that you write don't rhyme, it has a very hard time making it sing. This is one of the things Suno still does far better than Udio. So if you have a song that doesn't rhyme, you need to be well under the character limit, at least 100 to 150 characters under. So if you want Udio to sing lyrics that don't rhyme, it should be no more than 200 characters per section. You may still have to try a few times to get a seed that will sing as most times it will just be spoken words mixed with instrumentals.

How to use the same voice from another video you did?

That's an amazing AI love song. 1960s meets 2030!

Groovy tune, northern soul

Hello, thank you for your video, i found this for the tempo bpm: 60;

How do I generate several songs keeping the same voice as the singer?

I noticed an "inpainting" function today (something that I was looking for last night which was literally staring me in the face.) 😳 I haven't tried it yet, but seems like it should be pretty powerful for editing.

Another thing that helps to make the chorus/verses repeat the same melodies, make sure the prompt slider is set to "manual" not "auto". Auto tends to change/add prompts on its own. Manual makes sure you have the same prompts from section to section. Also if you don't get what you want on the first try, don't be afraid to try again with the exact same prompts. Eventually you can get it to repeat the melody where you want it.

All quite amazing but that show tunes version was a jawdropper.

loved this bruh....

CAN U MAKE THE SAME VIDEO BUT IN DIFERENTE LANGUAJES TOO MUSIC IN SPANISH OR JAPANESE ANIME MUSIC AND USE THE NEW UDIO UPDATES ANS ALSO USE TWO VOICES IN THE SAME MUSIC

What about electronic music what it is most of the time instrumental?

You're always amazing. Is there any new Aí for cartoon voice generator? If so, send me the link please.

bpm worked for me.

When I added the song I was imitating and then the artist name without “in the style of” I got a song very much in the style of the artist though not so much in the style of the song, but still in the same ball park.

Is there a way to do the same but with an Instrumental song?

Can Udio do a crowd cheering after song?

I made a song with vocals and a LEGENDARY instrumental that was so good, but I liked the instrumental so much that I just wanted the instrumental, and take the guy's voice out (from a song I already created) Can I get the instrumental of an already created song that has lyrics?

can you control how long a word will be sung or if a word gets screamed?

can someone make a short list of all metatags, and vocal style, and voice effect like [intro] [outro] [verse] [chorus] [pre-chorus] [Instrumental solo] [Interlude] [chorus repeat] [verse repeat] [laughter] [downtempo] [drop] [Build-Up] [standup] in prompt [voiceover] in prompt metatags : [] repetition in lyrics : (word to repeat) pause in the lyrics : --- between words prompt : voiceover only

Cool
