The Master Guide / 12 Music · Suno
Suno always, hero tracks included
Suno makes all the music, for every film: ads, hero tracks, and music-led, luxury and broadcast films too. No composer is commissioned (decided).

The evidence [proven, thinly: Suno as the source, finished outside Suno]. Released AI films score in Suno and finish the music elsewhere, in the edit and the mix. No creator publishes Suno slider settings, so every slider value in this chapter is a starting point: log it per project and revise it from your logged rounds. How each control behaves comes from Suno's own pages [official guidance] and a live read of the app in October 2026.
A hero track gets more care with the same tool and method, never a different one:
a fuller music brief (see Music → The music brief);
the music-first method where the film is cut to its music (see Music → The music-first route);
Suno's Edit tools for sections and endings (Replace Section, Extend, Crop, Remaster), inside the round's cap;
stems for the mix (see Music → Style-text examples, style formula 6);
a real singer for a sung track (see Music → Sung lyrics and the real singer).
When the options fail your ear twice, stop: write down why they failed, and start the next round from new directions, under the same cap (see Music → Music takes and the shortlist).
How you work in Suno
A Pro (or Premier) Suno plan, in the web app. There is no public API (no way for your own software to drive it).
The latest model, v6 today, for every option.
Plan each round before you click: each direction's style and lyrics text, every setting, the number of Creates within the cap, the Suno credits and the downloads it will use, and the downloads left this month. Every later fix or download is planned the same way, with its Suno credits named.
Never publish or share a song publicly, and never upload a commercial recording or client material the client's non-disclosure agreement (NDA) doesn't allow.
ElevenLabs' music model is not used: no creator has shipped finished work with it, and Suno's Duration control closes the length gap it once had (see Tools at a glance → Not needed, and why).
