Click “Sign Up” in the top right corner.
You can sign up with Google, Apple, or Discord.
Pick your preferred method and confirm your email.

You can also use Suno on mobile through the app.
No downloads are needed for the web version.
Log in with your new account.
Here’s what the dashboard looks like:
✓ Checkpoint: You should see the main Create page.

Step 1: Open the Create Page
Click the “Create” button on the left sidebar.
You’ll see two modes: Simple and Custom.
Simple mode accepts a prompt up to 200 characters.
Custom mode lets you write your own lyrics.
Step 2: Write Your Prompt
For Simple mode, describe your song’s theme and style.

Suno AI Pro Tips and Shortcuts
After months of testing, here are my best tips.
Atajos de teclado
| Action | Shortcut |
|---|---|
| Play / Pause current song | Spacebar |
| Skip to next generated version | Right Arrow |
| Go back to previous version | Left Arrow |
| Open Create page quickly | Ctrl + N (Cmd + N on Impermeable) |
Hidden Features Most People Miss
- Section tags in Custom mode: Use [Intro], [Verse], [Chorus], [Bridge], and [Outro] to control song structure precisely. This is the single biggest difference between average and great results.
- Instrumental toggle: Turn on the Instrumental switch to create backing tracks without vocals. Perfect for YouTube videos, podcasts, or karaoke.
- Audio upload feature: Upload your own audio clips and Suno will create new songs in a similar style. This works best with clean, high-quality recordings.
Suno AI Common Mistakes to Avoid
Mistake #1: Using Vague Prompts
❌ Wrong: Writing “make me a good song” and expecting great results. Vague prompts give the AI no direction and produce generic output.
✅ Right: Write specific prompts like “upbeat 1980s synth-pop with female vocals about a summer road trip.” Include genre, decade, mood, and instruments.
Mistake #2: Accepting the First Generation
❌ Wrong: Keeping the very first output without trying variations. The first result is rarely the best one.
✅ Right: Generate 3 to 5 versions with small prompt tweaks. Compare them and pick the best one, then extend or edit from there.
Mistake #3: Ignoring Structure Tags
❌ Wrong: Pasting plain lyrics into Custom mode without any section markers. The AI won’t know where verses and choruses go.
✅ Right: Always use [Verse], [Chorus], [Bridge], and [Outro] tags in your lyrics. These guide the AI to build proper song structure.
Suno AI Troubleshooting
Problem: Song generation is stuck or loading forever
Cause: Server load is high during peak hours.
Arreglar: Wait 2 to 3 minutes and try again. Pro and Premier users get priority queue access for faster generation times.
Problem: The vocals sound robotic or unnatural
Cause: Using an older model version or unclear prompts.
Arreglar: Switch to the v5 model on a paid plan. Add specific vocal descriptions like “warm female vocals” or “raspy male voz” in your prompt.
Problem: Credits ran out before the day ended
Cause: Free plan gives only 50 credits per day.
Arreglar: Upgrade to Pro for 2,500 monthly credits. You can also purchase add-on credits without changing your plan.
Problem: Can’t use songs for commercial projects
Cause: Free plan songs are for personal use only.
Arreglar: Upgrade to Pro or Premier for full commercial rights. Songs made while subscribed can be used on YouTube, Spotify, and in ads.
