Summary of Unlock Music Creation: How to Use Meta Tags in Suno for Ultimate Song Control!
Video Summary
The video, hosted by Matt from AY Tech, explains how to use meta tags within the Suno music creation platform to gain more precise control over song output. meta tags are additional instructions that go beyond basic genre or exclusion prompts, allowing users to specify elements like instrumentals between verses, instrument types, moods, and song structure details such as guitar solos or breaks. Matt credits a friend for inspiring this approach and suggests using ChatGPT to learn about meta tags and even generate song examples with embedded meta tags.
He demonstrates how meta tags can influence Suno's song creation by showing a sample song with meta tags and then uploading it to Suno to see how the AI interprets the instructions. While meta tags don't always work perfectly, they open up new creative possibilities and encourage experimentation without risk—users can simply discard unsatisfactory results.
Matt also briefly shows how to edit generated songs in Suno to remove unwanted parts, such as meta tags mistakenly sung as lyrics. He encourages viewers to experiment with meta tags to enhance their music creation process and offers additional resources on his blog for deeper exploration.
Additionally, Matt mentions his support for a charity that provides cataract surgery in remote Indonesian villages, encouraging donations to improve lives across generations.
