Suno has launched a public beta feature called Speech that generates spoken voices alongside background music.

Summary

Suno, known for its AI music generator, has introduced a new feature called Speech that generates spoken voices based on scripts or prompted descriptions. The feature is available in public beta on Suno's web and mobile platforms, allowing users to create voiceovers and background music simultaneously. According to Suno's chief product officer, Jack Brody, this expansion aligns with the company's vision to support various forms of human expression. While AI-generated speech is not new, Suno differentiates by combining voice and music into one cohesive track. Users can access Speech via the "Create" tab, choosing between Simple mode for prompted descriptions or Advanced mode for custom scripts, with options to adjust voice gender, style, and variety. The feature has a maximum duration of about eight minutes. Suno acknowledges the beta's imperfections, such as occasional accent drift, but plans to improve based on user feedback.
