Congratulations!

Coincidentally, we're 182 years away from the time when this was written by one Ada Lovelace:

> Supposing, for instance, that the fundamental relations of pitched sounds in the science of harmony and of musical composition were susceptible of such expression and adaptations, the engine might compose elaborate and scientific pieces of music of any degree of complexity or extent.

Make it so we can setup an account with email.

Curious to know how you trained this… did you licence all the songs and recordings that you used?

After playing with this for a while, there are two things I have to say.

First, this is amazingly good. I did not expect us to be this far wrt generated music so quickly. If this pace holds, I fully expect some Udio-generated tracks to become a significant part of my daily tracklist in not so distant future.

Second, I do have several fictitious bands on https://chirper.ai, complete with fake albums and track lists and, in some cases, lyrics. I'm actually trying to plug some of that into Udio with variously hilarious results (the bands include stuff like fundamentalist Islamic black metal and reggaeton deathcore, so this is very much as intended). But it occurred to me that it would actually be pretty neat to be able to set up a virtual band like that and basically let them have a go at it, composing whole new albums etc + some kind of feedback channel where you can give feedback about what they produce, e.g. in form of YouTube-like comments on the tracks. The idea is basically to produce coherent output that is consistent with the artist persona as defined, going beyond musical genres alone.

Even better if this all could be fully integrated with Chirper and similar services - so that such bots can post about new releases and get themes for their songs from interactions on other platforms etc.

Whose music did you use to train this thing?

There's no "register" button?

Maybe state somewhere that this is exclusively for google, discord or xitter users.

Loving it; but please fix the volume normalization on the 'extend' feature; half the time I hit 'extend' and a loud sound in the extended part re-normalizes the whole song and makes the original part too quiet!

This should link to your site, not a Twitter post.

Hey Conor, congrats on the launch! Will there be an API any time soon? I’m currently working on a hobby project that uses an unofficial API for Suno, but would love to switch it to Udio if possible.

We've been paying a content team of 3 people with a 4th req open. If the generation time of Udio goes down once the initial rush of publicity passes, I can cancel hiring that 4th musician.

Are the TOS legal in your country, especially the part about the

> Section 9 [which] contains an arbitration clause and class action waiver

It’s strange seeing this.

Great work and I'm excited to see more competition in this space.The vocals do seem more impressive / less wooden than Suno. Would really love to see a future of more controlability and separating out the different audio tracks for vocals etc. Best of luck and hope the corporate landlords and RIAA Golems don't come after you, haha

Neat! Is this a diffusion model, language model (e.g., SoundStorm from your former colleagues), or something else?

This is genuinely awesome. As others have said, I didn't expect AI music to get so far this quick. You guys have even done a nice job on the interface, though the tags are a little warped (Firefox on Mac).

I expect this to be a global phenomenon by next week, so, slightly premature congrats!

Looks like you're hitting some issues with a big influx, would like to try things but I'm getting errors and songs entirely unrelated to what I've entered, is there a status page to check on to see when it's worth coming back to?

Any plans to support stem export, or at least do instrumentals without the vocals?

So here's my feature request.

Let me upload beats, and have the AI rap or sing over it!

I will have no problem paying for that.

Also, while we're talking about pipe dreams, generate a lyric video for me too so I can upload it to YouTube!

Edit: For the pro option give us stems!

I’m having fun with this, made a real banger already. I’d pay to speed it up! Suggestions:

- I needed to fix a few lyrics but wanted exactly the same style / song but this doesn’t seem possible? Setting remix similarity slider to lowest makes the exact same song. The remix UI I don’t really like because it isn’t clear and since it takes so long to generate that lack of clarity means I’m punished with a 5-15min delay if I don’t know what something is going to result in. Think of the feedback loop turnaround time when designing!

- it’s weird there’s no ui for favoriting a song. I found the choices available a bit odd. Copy Spotify?

- similarly, it generates some songs I didn’t like and they’re right along side the ones I really liked. Needs to have more distinguishing between ‘stuff I just got back’ from ‘good ones’

- would love a full screen song generator with more dials and knobs, including some sample sounds for keywords. I don’t love the small input box

- how do I press ‘make a longer version of this’ because that’s what I want for my banger song

- setup by email would be great

Hey Conor... your tool is both impressive and terrifying in equal measure. Do you have plans for an API?
