Suno has released version 4 — music generation has reached studio quality.
Suno releases its fourth version, and we're not exaggerating — the difference from the previous generation is enormous. Previously, AI music could be identified in a second: muddy sound, robotic vocals, weird transitions. In Suno v4, these artifacts are gone.
We generated a dozen tracks in English and Russian. Gave them to a producer friend to listen without warning. He couldn't tell the difference.
Audio quality — 48kHz, stereo. Sounds clean and deep, on par with professional studio recordings. Maximum track length grew from 2 to 5 minutes — now you get complete songs with verses, choruses, and bridges, not clipped demos.
Vocals became the biggest breakthrough. Voices sound emotional, diction is clear, intonations are natural. And — critically for multilingual users — different languages finally work properly. The "foreign accent" that plagued earlier versions has virtually disappeared.
Built-in mastering automatically levels volume, adds compression and equalization. Tracks can be published immediately — no post-processing in a DAW needed.
Custom styles also appeared: you can create and save your own sound, then reproduce it in new tracks. For serial content creators — podcasters, YouTube channels — this is a goldmine.
Indie musicians get a studio in their browser. Podcasters get unique jingles in minutes. Marketers get audio ads without a production budget.
Though it's still unclear how the music industry will react. Labels are already nervous. According to Suno CEO Michael Shulman, "We're not replacing musicians — we're giving tools to those who didn't have them." Nice promises, but freelance musicians writing background music on commission are surely thinking otherwise.
Competitors are falling behind. Udio has interesting mixing tools but noticeably worse vocals. Stable Audio is a niche product. Google MusicFX remains an experiment that Google itself doesn't seem to know why it launched.
The legal status of AI music is still undefined. Suno grants commercial rights on paid plans but warns: check your local legislation. Internationally, this remains largely unregulated.
Free — 10 generations per day. Pro — $10/month (500 generations). Premier — $30/month (2,000 generations with priority). The service works globally without VPN restrictions, though payment options may vary by region.
