Actually, it does work that way. There's a "cover" feature that will do that.

You can use BiaB to create the backing (something it does really well), sing the vocals, and load that into Suno to have it create a "cover", telling Suno how you want to it produced. Several users on the forum have done exactly that - created a song using BiaB, and then had Suno create a "cover".

That said, you've got the issue of not having the individual stems if the customer asks for them. And if they want a modified version of the song, it'll be hard to create. Plus, the audio quality of the track may be problematic, but you might be able to use something like OpenVino SuperResolution (free in Audacity) to upscale the resolution.

If I were to look in BiaB, I could find something like Piano, Acoustic, Rhythm PopUpliftPulsing Ev16 120 that might be useful for the keyboard. And maybe PopPromiseEv16 for the drums.

But most of the production is the vocals. There are various ways you could get vocals (synthetic, hire a singer, etc.), but what do you do then? Even if you had the raw materials, turning them into a powerful track isn't trivial. If you lack the ability to create that kind of production, there's no magic way to get those skills in a short time.

All said, while there are shortcuts available, those shortcuts are available to everyone else. So the part that you add had better be much, much better than your competition.

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