this is not suno. this is a laboratory for open source music models. it will not make a whole song for you. it's mostly designed around making samples you might use in other music production software. i first created this as a quick way to do beatbox and desk drum continuations with musicgen finetunes. they're somehow both lofi and futuristic, and super unhinged. you can still do that in here, but now it does a bunch of other stuff, and it's going to keep doing more. supported models rn: stable audio 3 - loops, continuations, transformations stable-audio-open-small - loops musicgen (the original gary) - continuations melodyflow - transformations record your own audio then chain multiple models. that's when you get something you'll truly never hear anywhere else. tap the question mark icons throughout the app to learn more.
