question is if all edits and extensions charge credits? And, does it create similar music so we may get copyright claim on youtube if somebody generated same music just different lyrics? Noticed yourself also did not want to play song fully..
I'm 70 years old, so this is a technical challenge for me. All of my adult life, I have been hearing music in my head, especially when I am high. It is SO BEAUTIFUL that it makes me actually cry! But, to my everlasting frustration, I have NO musical skills. I had to WORK all of my life, so I never had time to learn any music. Now, I am retired, so I have time to try to express my Soul with Music. I just hope I live long enough to bring the music that I hear in my head out for the World to hear. With Udio, I truly hope that my Musical Frustration can be relieved. I can't Wait to begin!
I hear ya buddy. I am 55 still working all the time and am now making songs I always wanted. Just keep at it. As you know its the journey not the destination that make things worth it.
Just yesterday I created a nice prog rock song, early Yes style. The main limitation I see at this point is not getting it to repeat a verse or a chorus in an extension. It will repeat the lyrics, of course, but not the melody. The end of the song is barely related to the beggining of it. Well... just like Yes 😂
I think the "correct evolution" of a tool like this should be the ability to create segments in the song where you can choose the tracks/instruments. Then in generates the tracks that you can select sections of and copy paste or use to generate more things with the correct context. Of course the ability to export the song in steams would be a great plus for remixes of the final touches. (tho that sounds as a premium feature...) Right now there are good IA tools to separate the steams tho. A lot of crazy things are coming...
We experimented on a cover track for an Avril Lavigne song today and managed to get it to keep the melody on the chorus consistent, if that helps. Try prompting [Chorus] above the chorus lyrics each time you input them
As someone who's new getting into music. This is great. I'm no singer 😂 not yet anyway. And I'm only new to playing instruments. But I still love writing songs. I don't use ai to write the songs. I prefer to make it more personal and meaningful, writing it on my own. But to hear my song is amazing
I'm hoping at some point they'll give us more flexibility with us choosing the time to extend from, repeat chorus/pre chorus etc. maybe editing in a flow chart gui would do the job...
You can extend song from specific point by toggling 'Select Section' option. Basically, you select what to save and the rest of the track will be cropped. As for the chorus you can try to select 'Custom' lyrics and write there [Chorus] tag and your text under it and repeat it several times. You can also add vowels to words and AI will try to 'sing' it longer (e.g. 'mother' to 'motheeeeer'). Oh, and punctuation marks can be used for pause :) Oh, and when in Custom mode, don't write what song is about in promt, write only styles, years, etc, otherwise generator might fail. There are several other tips in bottom right corner when you press Extend button :)
I was able to keep my song relatively consistent, mostly due to luck. It's a glam rock song called "Snowman's Lament", it's both on TH-cam and Udio. I can't wait for more UI improvements like segmented projects. It gets cluttered fast when you need to generate so many clips.
can't thank you enough for this tutorial. I was going round and round trying to get udio to construct a song. turns out the problem was me... not doing things in the steps you have described. This really helped me... thank you so much!
@@kingy-ai I haven’t yet Curtis bro, saw your vid and will def try in the next few days! I wasn’t impressed w the dance pop songs we were trying to create for our Ai assisted real estate listings side brand as I was w Sona which we 3 maxed out of prompt runs with tonight trying to get the best catchiest song through but will make time tomm to try and get full extended Udio song. Amazing how those extensions work and auto seam together
is there any way to strip out the vocal track or make an acapella version? I'd like the physically re-record the music portion myself then put the AI vocals back on
love it !! question ....after you create a segment (with lyrics ) can you go back to a segment and change the lyrics and keep everything else the same . 2nd question, one of my segments has a killer chorus , can i replete or duplicate it ?
So when you use this you cant break the song in the middle? you just have to go one verse at a time? i mean if i hvae a 2:10 minute song i can only add befores and afters i cant break it in the middle to add a section?
Been working with Udio for a week or two now, it's improved since this video, but I've noticed sometimes when structuring a song it might try to squeeze too many lyrics in one segment and end up slurring. The only major worry I have about this model is how much the vocals sound like other bands - I auto-generated a song about noodles and it literally sounds like a They Might Be Giants song, the vocals sounding like an exact replica of John Linnell lol. Could be dangerous!
@@kingy-ai I used 11Labs last year, and I was addicted to it. Before that, chatGPT, and now it is AI music. I think one of the big ones like Google or Microsoft will have to shake 11Labs, but until then Labs will be unshakable. 🥳
@@lylyluvda916 the only other thing I can think of is making sure the spacing is the same between chorus and verses. That has created that dynamic for me in the past.
A big short fall is intros and endings that you can add on to the song. This would be best if you could cut and paste them to your AI song. Also a way to put together and edit the song before adding words and singers. A thesaurus and song dictionary might help people write better songs. A drum fill editor and a way to speed up and slow down the song. Guitar editor for adding solos.
Love the vid, Very helpful. I made a song I like but want to change certain lyrics. How is that done, I've tried everything but the old lyrics won't change. LMK Thank You.
So how do you edit the songs? Lets say it has 80s synth drums and I want to keep the existing clip totally the same, but with a pan drum or analog drums?
My question about udio is about the "add section before" and who to cut off pieces that I don't like the results, or to add some guitar solo, for exemplo, in the middle of the music. Can you help me?
Thanks, this is both cool and scary at the same time. Were you able to download it as a video? It says that you need to generate an image cover but I don't see any option to do that.
Am having a hard time generating a song using my own lyrics for some reason when I add an intro when extending the 33s music it just says random things and like skips some parts of the lyrics
I´m trying to figure out how to add a solid extro. It seems that´s not an option...or? In most cases it auto-generates a fade at the end or not even. Does anyone know how to manage that?
i believe it take a lot of tries even using the same tags and similar prompt, but still possible, a dude made a fake pink floyd album with like 10+ udio tracks and managed to keep a fairly consistent david gilmour voice across the songs
I want something like this only for one thing… to sing the lyrics and melody I write for my own songs. In other words, produce a vocal track I can paste into my own recorded music. BECAUSE I CANT SING. It would help my creativity without hiring a vocalist… at least until I’m ready for one.
This is absolutely amazing! I made about 10 songs already, but I can't wait until it becomes easier to create full songs, it sort of a pain at the moment.
You ended the video because the end of the song wasn't right. Udio has its advantages, but it also has serious problems in the partitioning. You only vocalized what was in the Tutorial. That's why it's not a successful content. Sorry i didn't like it
but heres the thing u dont own the lyrics u make or write so i could write lyrics yet they own it even tho i may have wrote it down irl then put it in there

This is how you do it! Great song! Combining a DAW like Logic with UDIO is the way of the future (I think). Unless UDIO gets advanced editing tools (eventually). Then who knows :)

Great questions 👀
We need more Udio full song tutorials. And I cannot WAIT For Google AI Sandbox.
nice
Also just to say, the name doesn't change when you extend anymore it just tacks on a 'v1' or 'v1.1'
Can you get sheet music for piano, vocal, chords for guitar, etc. For your songs?
I can't wait to try it out.
Let me know what you think! :)
It's great. I tried adding my own lyrics, but it is limited to 300 characters.
I still don't understand Udio prompts but this is a good explanation of what all the buttons do
Thank you. I’ll try this out at some point.
So when you use this you cant break the song in the middle? you just have to go one verse at a time? i mean if i hvae a 2:10 minute song i can only add befores and afters i cant break it in the middle to add a section?

First radio play of a Udio song was last night on Oystermouth Radio at just after 9:15pm. The show should be repeated tonight at the same time.
