Suno now lets creators start a song by dropping in a MIDI file
Suno users can now begin a song from a MIDI file, a format that stores notes and timing but no sound. You drag the file onto the Create page or choose MIDI from the plus menu. You can also decide whether Suno plays your notes exactly or grows a new idea from part of the melody.
- Because a MIDI file holds only notes and timing, it offers a far more precise starting point than other inputs.
- You choose how closely Suno follows the file, from exact playback to developing a short motif into a new song.
- MIDI was created in the mid-1980s so devices such as synthesizers could exchange performance data.
- Turning MIDI into a rich sound used to take costly instrument plugins, a lot of time and specialist skills.
