Suno has unveiled v5.5, its most significant update yet to its AI music model. While earlier updates primarily enhanced sound quality and vocal authenticity, this version is all about user empowerment. It introduces three innovative features: Voices, My Taste, and Custom Models.

According to Suno’s release notes, Voices is the feature users have clamored for the most. This tool allows individuals to personalize the vocal model using their own voice. Users can upload various audio forms, including a cappellas, complete tracks with background music, or even direct recordings through their device’s microphone. The cleaner the audio submission, the less data needed for effective training. For security, Suno requires users to verify their identity with a spoken phrase, although existing AI technology might still replicate celebrity voices.

Once the Voices feature is ready, users can have their AI-generated voice perform over uploaded or AI-created music tracks.

Custom Models take personalization a step further, enabling users to tailor Suno’s AI with their music collection. By uploading a minimum of six tracks and naming their customized model, users can direct how v5.5 interprets prompts.

Moreover, the My Taste feature adapts to users’ evolving preferences, learning from frequently chosen genres, moods, and artists, and applying this knowledge to automatically generate styles when using the magic wand feature.

While My Taste is accessible to all users, the enhanced features of Voices and Custom Models are exclusive to Pro and Premier subscribers.
