Hi, Alexander.

I think one of the things that distinguishes this forum from others is that people are able to engage in all sorts of aspects of song creation, from writing technique, singing tips, production and distribution. It's not just a place to show off a final product, but to help other people. We're all pretty much DIY here.

I've got no issue with people using AI. I use various AI tools extensively. But I try to be clear with how I use these tools. And your explanation leaves lots of intriguing parts missing.

For example, I know that I can't supply Suno with notes that I want to have it sing, only lyrics. This is similar to working with a sax solo in BiaB, where you can only specify the chords, and then regenerate the solo until you get something close to what you want.

But if there are specific notes that you want from that sax solo, BiaB isn't going to supply them if they aren't in the pre-recorded solos. So you've got two options. you can either settle for it being "close enough", or you can edit the pitches and duration with a tools like Melodyne.

But with Suno, you can keep regenerating songs, because it's not limited to the pitches that it's can output. So like those fabled monkeys at a typewriter, you'll get something that's fairly close.

Since Audacity offers only limited pitch editing tools, it sounds like you did a lot of regenerations to get what you were looking for.

So if I understand your post, you generated many, many versions of the song in Suno, and pieced together the final performance, editing them together in Audacity.

Is that correct?

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?
