GUIDE
AI Music Prompt Examples: Copy, Paste and Generate
Find inspiration in our library of ready-to-use commands. Copy the combinations of genres, instruments and moods to get the song you want on the first try.
Here, commands aren't written into a single free-text field: you pick genre, mood, BPM, key, and director's notes in the "Project" section of Studio (see the full guide). Below are 5 starting combinations, ready to copy and adapt.
The trick: be specific, not generic
The director's notes field makes the biggest difference: describe instruments, production, and atmosphere instead of vague adjectives.

Does the track cut off instead of fading out?
We've already fixed the default behavior (a natural ending is now always requested). If you still want to reinforce it or control exactly where, add [Fade Out] to the director's notes, typically as the last line: e.g. "...final chorus, then [Fade Out]".
Advanced prompts for instrumentation and sound design
How to specify synthesizers, acoustic guitars or electronic drops
Besides describing things in words, you can insert these bracketed tags directly into the text (director's notes or hand-written lyrics). They work best on vocal/musical content; on isolated effects the AI engine doesn't always respect them reliably.
Structure
[Intro][Verse 1][Pre-Chorus][Chorus][Bridge][Outro][End][Chorus] on its own line before your hook lyrics
Instrumental
[Instrumental][Instrumental Break][Guitar Solo][Piano Solo][Synth Solo][Instrumental Break] between verse 2 and the bridge
Vocal
[Male Vocal][Female Vocal][Choir][Harmony][Rap][Whisper][Spoken Word][Whisper] before a quiet, intimate line
Dynamics and production
[Fade In][Fade Out][Crescendo][Silence][Key Change][Tempo: slow][Fade Out] as the last line of the outro
Parameterized
[Verse: whispered vocals, acoustic guitar only][Chorus: full band, soaring vocals]add ": description" inside any structural tag for per-section control
Audio quality
Descriptors like pristine studio recording, 4K audio fidelity, professional mix and master, high dynamic range are already applied automatically to every generation, no need to add them. For an extra push you can still write
[Hi-Fi Sound Stage] at the start of the Intro lyrics (being a positional tag, this should be typed by hand into the text, not into director's notes).Voice: descriptors and Voice Persona
There's no separate "voice" field — you control it by adding a vocal descriptor inside director's notes, alongside everything else (instruments, atmosphere). Some ready to copy:
ethereal, delicate female vocalsraspy, deep male vocalswhispered, close to the micduet: alternating male and female vocalsgospel choir backing the choruslight, modern autotune, not roboticraspy, almost shouted vocals on the chorusheavy soul-style vibrato
Want the same voice across multiple tracks?
First generate a track with vocals that genuinely convince you (avoid ones with heavy autotune or heavily processed vocals: the Persona captures the sound as-is, not the "clean" voice underneath). Then click the icon on that track and give it a descriptive name (e.g. "Warm alto folk voice", "Raspy rock baritone"). From then on, every new generation in the same project will use that voice, to stay consistent.
What it preserves: timbre and basic delivery style (breathy, raspy, smooth...). What it does not preserve: exact melody and phrasing — those always come from the new track's genre/mood/director's notes. Works well across different tempos or keys; works poorly across very different genres (e.g. a voice created on a folk track applied to a drill beat will give unpredictable results) — better to create a different Persona for each genre you use often, instead of one "universal" one.
Want even more control?
In the "AI Studio" section you'll find the "Advanced manual prompt" field (in English): what you write there goes at the top of the style sent to the AI engine, in addition to the genre/mood/BPM already set — useful for very precise technical details, e.g. "tight punchy drums, sidechain compression on the bass, vinyl crackle texture".
Frequently asked questions about prompts
Do prompts work the same way for every musical genre?
Yes, but the more specific you are about instruments (e.g. "acoustic piano") and mood (e.g. "melancholic"), the more precisely the Music Studio Pro engine will give you the result you had in mind.
Can I write the prompts in my own language?
Yes. Genre, mood and above all the director's notes can be written in your own language: they reach the engine exactly as you typed them. The one field worth writing in English is AI Studio's "advanced manual prompt", because it is passed to the engine word for word.
