Since its inception, the music generation service Suno has generated significant buzz, promising a revolution in musical creativity. Expectations were high, with projections of two million paying users and one hundred million creators. However, the release of Suno's sixth version has led to widespread user dissatisfaction and a wave of subscription cancellations, which has been reflected in the headlines of industry media.

Technical Perfection and Emotional Emptiness

Critics note that version 6, despite its technical purity, has become "emotionally dead." The music has lost its depth, and the sound has become flat and sterile. Particular dissatisfaction was caused by the sound of guitars in the metal genre, which is described as "terrible," with the dominance of a synthesizer creating the impression that the entire composition was made on it. An analysis of two thousand reviews showed that remnants of "soul" were preserved only in the less controlled V6 Wild model, positioned as unpredictable. Users characterize the new version as an "ideal machine for trash," generating "muted, template-like air garbage" rather than a real improvement.

Instruments of Fall: Censorship and Destruction of Past Versions

The key factors leading to this outcome are cited as follows:

1. Training on sterile data: Unlike previous versions, where models were trained on the full spectrum of available music with its diversity and unique character, version 6 uses only WMG, BMG, and Belief catalogs. This has led to a narrowing of the data range, a decrease in diversity, and a predictable, шаблонный (template-like) result.
2. Destruction of past versions: Users report the inability to revert to previous, higher-quality versions (4.5, 5, 5.5), which allowed for the creation of excellent tracks. The deletion of the best, uncontrolled models is explained by their training on "the best uncontrolled data." Feedback indicates a "dead workflow" for many creators.
3. New restrictions and corporate greed: Six days before the release of the sixth version, strict download limits were introduced: seven tracks for the free version, twenty for Pro, and sixty for Premium. Additional downloads became paid, significantly increasing the cost of obtaining a track.

The "Commissioners of Crime" and Corporate Compromise

The "commissioners of crime" are referred to as companies that have previously sued Suno and continue to engage in legal disputes. Version 6 is seen as a compromise between the labels Warner Music Group, BMG, and the service itself, rather than a creator-focused product. As a result, the labels have gained total control over data and partnerships, while users are faced with restrictions, aggressive monetization, and a loss of creative freedom.

Industry Retaliation

The music industry is striking back. A coalition of artists, through the company Seно Tsunн, has released an open letter stating that AI music generation "dilutes the royalty pool of legitimacy for artists whose work has been stolen." The reaction to Suno's partnership with Warner Music Group has been met with sarcasm, as Suno's attempt to "protect artists" has turned into increased profits for Suno.

Despite Suno's attempts to become legal and safe, on September 18th, Sony and Universal filed a new forty-five-page lawsuit, claiming that version 6 still infringes on rights as it was trained on the output of older models. This is seen as an attempt to "launder" and continue using a "poisoned tree."

Timeline of the Fall

• September 3: Introduction of strict download limits.
• September 9: Release of the "sterilized" V6 version.
• September 18: New forty-five-page lawsuit from Sony and Universal.
• September 22: Mass user unsubscribes and scathing media articles.

Verdict: Cultural Death

Suno is not technically dying; the servers are running, but the service is dying culturally. The attempt to please everyone has led to the transformation of an innovative tool into a sterile money-making machine, generating safe, soulless content.

Evolution or Death: Hacking Suno Through Prompts

However, despite the disappointment, there is an opportunity to turn Suno into an ideal tool with the power of precise programming. The service is not dead, but has "grown," transforming from a machine guessing desires into a strict computational apparatus requiring precise programming through prompts.

Previously, Suno could create a "beautiful love song" from an abstract request, but now it demands clear algorithms. Users must use prompts that set the program and direction for Suno, creating a powerful foundation for further customization. Simple words no longer work due to the narrow V6 database, which lacks creative intuition. Abstract tasks lead to an averaged, corporate template.

The loophole lies in using prompts to obtain the desired result, which is then "polished" by the user. The key to control becomes a personal prompt library. Resources like book.produser.guru offer ready-made prompt catalogs.

The era of "blind luck" is over; the time of "engineers" and "producers" has arrived. The produser.guru project is focused on creating virtual artists, repertoire, and packaging. If Suno was previously a "slot machine" that produced a "soulful indie hit," now, thanks to prompts, "dead magic" can be brought to life.

The dilettante approach with simple requests no longer works. It is necessary to specify the algorithm step-by-step to get an "unpolished diamond" in hand. Power over the algorithm is now in the hands of users.

It is recommended to visit mastersuna.ru for free articles and a library of samples, loops, and presets (over 70 GB). The Telegram channel "Продюсергуру" is also available.

The prompt library at book.producer.guru is a unified knowledge base for producers, offering an online catalog of books with ready-made prompts. Each book contains theory, practice, an HTML constructor, a library, and an error checklist. The book "New Year's Hit Factory" is particularly highlighted for preparing for the holiday season.

Roman Busn's approach involves combining theory and practice, providing extensive material for work. Users are offered to take all books or choose the most suitable ones at the moment.
