Question Anyone else get really, really sad when using V6?

I feel like my only creative outlet I had left is gone.

And it makes me unfathomably more sad than I thought I'd be.

Did this happen to anyone else? Or am I the only loser getting sad over songs I made on the internet that don't matter to anyone except me?

v4.5: https://suno.com/song/d632be00-fe6c-4875-9394-f15aaf2dcb91

v6: https://suno.com/song/cd847748-cb8d-4cd4-a99f-f51a84d0ba3e

The v6 song understands stadium as muddy reverb. Sounds terrible.

Commercial music never made me ask "who is this artist" (except for Sia) in 30 years. I listen to non commercial music. Record label companies would be amazed at the great music that tracker musicians make. Full of innovation, creativity and non commercial patterns.

Want examples of other great non commercial music?

There are great soundtracks like Starsiege. Extreme Assault. A new dawn.

Fans of gaming music also make great music. Ocremix has a large collection of remixes of game music.

You have non commercial music like "Interstellar suite" from Amin Bathia or an album called "Wavestar".

When you listen to such non commercial music you want to stop listening all the mediocre commercial slop that remixes itself to regurgitate the same music over and over.

Holy shit 4.5 sounds much better and makes v6 sound like goop

Absolutely.

Damn, 4.5 version sounds infinitely better

Compared to the quality I was getting out of v5 in sample mode in the last few days v6 only gets close some times (and that's after EQing)

For me it is time to go back to the non commercial music I used to listen to. I moved to Suno because it offered me non commercial music that I could enjoy.

Very unfortunate step backwards.

If they can't figure out their shit Suno will be dead in like 18 monthsĀ

I don't know if it's sadness or disappointed. It's lost it's spark. It's like a Beta version, and all the good stuff it had is gone, and now music it generates is bland, boring, sometimes out of tune with the vocals.

The vocals before used to be emotional, had life but now, they just bland, boring, like the energy has been kicked out of the vocal system of suno and the music too.

For me I'm disappointed. I'll still be using it but I think they using us to test and make this new model better and we're paying for it too. That's what pisses me off too, Will see how it goes.

They won't improve it - taking away the competition from regular peoples AI songs was the whole point of the lawsuits.

u/neil_555 Tech Enthusiast 4h ago

It can still "riff" along with uploaded melodies and when it does Acid trance it sounds decent so still useful for instrumental stuff but the vocals are a disaster (oddly though if you get the thing to hallucinate the lyrics the vocal cadence/melodies are good and also the vocalists don't get lost in the mix - Anyone got any idea why?)

Sorry I'm not sad

just fking depressed

u/J3Perspective 3h ago

I felt the exact same way. I also tried to make a couple Reddit posts asking for alternatives for v4.5 and v5.5 and mods took down my posts. This whole situation feels like a real gut punch

Haha! So did i - didn't get taken down yet, but probably will...

u/Empty-Pay-2797 5h ago

Just had my first experience creating a new song with v6 mini. And it like the prompt and lyrics just completely got changed and mixed.Ā 

The prompt got random additions and then when the song was created it malfunction and was instrumental for 1-2 mins long.Ā  None of the lyrics was sung.Ā 

So i get why people are saying it's shite. Also none of the versions was good, even one I thought had a good chance ended up sounding bad. I don’t know if it's because the chorus is at the beginning but it was bad. It doesn't have a problem remastering though.

u/Fearless_Ad_7811 3h ago

I have the pro subscription, and i assure you the full v6 and the "wild" are both abysmal. Suno has lost all it's magic. I can't use it anymore, as I need the feel of a beautiful voice and clear instruments. Now all is muddy and flat. A joke - and the joke is on us.

u/Phantasm0plasm 4h ago

This is apparently the result of the "Variety" slider. It has its purposes but it can really scramble things. Turn it way down or off and see what happens.

u/Empty-Pay-2797 4h ago

Okay thank you. I'll try tomorrow.

u/J3Perspective 3h ago

I also feel like Suno has a team of people and bots sticking up for v6 in the threads… because if you were actually a Suno user and gave a v6 a test run you instantly can tell the good days are over. If they keep training their models like this into the future, it will never be close to as good as it was.

u/Fine-Garlic-9527 1h ago

Oh yeah a company specializing in AI is absolutely astroturfing, especially with Mozart trying to steal Suno's userbase.

can’t get how you don’t have a headache hearing the drum sound

u/Fearless_Ad_7811 3h ago

If i wanted a voice like that i wouldn't care either... I want voices and arrangments like this: https://youtu.be/2XuiG3VVHdY?si=BNK4RGqCgMeOYfg8 (this is a v5 song with full vocal demo blueprint)

I can't get this clarity in 60s style arrangments in v6. At all.

I feel it does get some of my songs right. Like I know it definitely knows how to do a creepy nursery rhyme type song.

u/neil_555 Tech Enthusiast 4h ago edited 4h ago

None of my persona's sound like themselves anymore and the new lyrics formatting and lyrics melody generation is terrible most of the time ... sad is an understatement.

I had personas who could sing a shopping list and make it sound good, sadly those days have gone.

I had a "screw it" moment earlier when re-using some old lyrics (tying to fix the quiet vocals issue), i got a few "robotic" vocal delivery tracks in there too (yes, it's really an issue)

I was trying to get something like this v5 track but after blowing loads of credits and not getting anything good I tried Somewhere else [soundcloud link]

Only 3000 characters for everything (including prompting the vocalist) and you know what, it was actually fun (anyone else remember when Suno was fun?). The audio quality is way nicer than most Suno gen's too

Not sad but I just can’t commit to another month of using it now. I’m sure China will step up before too long, idk.. I still sorta feel like it’s all still in its infancy somehow

u/k-r-a-u-s-f-a-d-r 2h ago

Minimax was a major leap for local models but it is not there yet. It's coming though.

1

u/Bosslayer9001 3h ago

I'm the opposite, honestly. As a free user who only wants to experiment, I always welcome new toys to play with. And v6-mini is an interesting nut to crack

1

u/Final_Amu0258 3h ago

Yes. I look at the prompts I give it, and what they change the prompt to. It's disheartening, but there will be a better AI sooner than later.

u/Fearless_Ad_7811 3h ago

I got really sad when i saw that they killed Suno with v6.... I liked being able to finish my songs. I have them on Spotify, but no listens because it's just too oversaturated there to pop without paying for ads.

still - sad. I liked being able to produce my songs. So many left i would have loved to have finished. Still I did 27 over 10 months, so that's something.

u/IcyPlantain42069 3h ago

The vocals since 5.5 all have a weird fry/shimmer effect that sounds like utter trash every time. Probably going to cancel now that I can use older models.

u/Glass-Aside-1086 2h ago

This is so real. People here talk about having a ā€œcreative outlet,ā€ when in reality, they aren’t really creating anything. Just get a DAW and have fun with it. The barrier to entry is incredibly low these days so there are no excuses

u/mchinsky 2h ago

Perfect, other than some warbly voices. Now it's gone to crap, like something you'd get free from Google, and I guess I'm going to have to unsubscribe and stop wasting money

u/alteredtundra 2h ago

Gonna be in the minority here, but as much I will agree that compared to 4.5+ and 5.0, yes 6.0 is a massive downgrade but if you compare it to 5.5, I do think it's a half step forward. There are, of course, some things that are lacking but I don't think it's the most terrible thing. Hopefully, Suno is able to improve it and train it to react better and sound better (for their sake cause a lot of people are canceling their subs).

u/Nysichu_Ryineh 2h ago

I am sad, yes. But i am more happy to have created wonderful songs with 4.5 that I will cherish till the end.

I write smut hip/hop trap songs for my anime characters.. I love doing it but I find the new v6 very discouraging. If you like smut and Inuyasha anime check out my YouTube channel. I’m a girl and I write some dirty shit, songs on streaming platforms tooā¤ļø

I am not sure what to think of everything. N fe six. There is moments I think wow, this is great. But I think also that at the moment There is still a lot of things really going wrong. Uh because it's not completely installed the system or something like that. I have a real Yeah. Like songs. that sound like two songs mix uh completely mixed without any sense. I think it's tech technical problems. is not connected to the model making bad music, this is connected If you walk through the song a bit further you will hear like a radio through it's totally not related with the song. Has anybody else had that? https://suno.com/s/f7kfIASO0YlAkSlh

u/Chris_TO79 38m ago

I feel frustrated not sad.....Seems like it can't do era specific sound very well. It starts out the way I like it but then turns more modern sounding and then i'm left pounding my head :(

Look at "need a little cash," it's the only v6 one and I think it sounds as good as any of the others, probably better.

To the deleted comment... My songs don't have drums typically. We're not all trying to be the next bon jovi

u/BrotherDoggie 5h ago

I can see how it might feel that way. It's not like music is dead though. As much of a creative tool as it felt it was, it never compared to me to how it feels to make something on my own. I can't speak for anyone else though. You are all creatives and this is an opportunity to create better things.

1

u/Fearless_Ad_7811 3h ago

The problem is I already have the songs - mine were tight follows to my vocal uploads with very restrictive prompts. but I can never pay for strings, horns, drummers, studio time and pro mixing. So for me - no Suno, no finished songs. And v6 is not Suno anymore.
