Suno Expands to Spoken Word Generation
AI music generator Suno has introduced a new feature named Speech, which allows users to generate spoken voices. This functionality is currently in public beta and is accessible across Suno's web and mobile platforms. The addition marks an expansion of Suno's capabilities beyond purely musical creations.
Integrated Voice and Music Creation
The Speech feature enables the simultaneous generation of voiceovers and accompanying AI background music. Users have the option to disable the background music if only a clean speech track is desired. This integration is intended to support various use cases, such as adding calming soundtracks to poems or energetic music to dramatic voiceovers.
Feature Usage and Customization
To use Speech, users navigate to the 'Create' tab and select the Speech option. Two modes are available: 'Simple' for generating speech from a descriptive prompt, and 'Advanced' for inputting a custom script. The Advanced mode also provides settings to adjust the AI voice's gender, speech style, and the variety in each generation. The maximum duration for generated speech is approximately eight minutes.
Beta Release and Future Improvements
Suno acknowledges that the Speech feature is in beta and may have imperfections, such as inconsistent accents or dramatic pauses. The company plans to improve the feature based on user feedback. This release positions Suno in the text-to-speech market, offering a distinct approach by combining voice generation with its existing AI music capabilities.
