Suno 為 Create 加入 MIDI 檔案上載功能，支援 AI 歌曲創作

Suno announced on November 4, 2026 that Pro and Premier subscribers can start songs by uploading MIDI files to its Create page, combining the musical data with natural-language instructions to follow the written notes, develop them or change their instrumentation.

Users can drag and drop a file onto Create or select MIDI from the page’s plus menu. The accepted static formats are .mid and .midi, adding a data-based starting point alongside text prompts and uploaded audio.

Notes and Timing as Generation Inputs

A MIDI file contains no audible sound. It stores musical information such as notes, rhythm and expression in a lightweight format, with up to 16 channels of pitch and timing data and as many as 120 controller lanes per channel for functions including modulation, volume and sustain. Because the file specifies exact notes and timing, Suno describes it as a more precise starting point than its other creation inputs.

After an upload, a user can ask Suno to reproduce the part exactly, develop a top-line motif into new ideas or render it with different instrumentation. The prompt therefore controls how literally the generation treats the supplied material: a fixed composition can be auditioned, or a smaller musical idea can become the basis for something new.

This differs from Create’s Remix and Cover modes, which adapt uploaded WAV or MP3 audio. Those modes begin with recorded sound, whereas MIDI conveys note and timing information without supplying the sound of a particular instrument. That separation lets a user preserve a musical line or chord progression while changing its instrumentation.

Score Auditioning and Older Sessions

One application is hearing work-in-progress scores with generated instrumentation. A composer can export a score as MIDI and request an orchestral arrangement with strings, brass, woodwinds and percussion. Students, teachers and band leaders can audition their compositions while iterating, with one example turning a file into a gospel choir with piano accompaniment. Older material can also be revisited: a synth line from an old session can become a string quartet while retaining the notes and chord progression in the file.

Those uses build on a limitation of the format: MIDI describes a performance but supplies no sound, and even carefully programmed files cannot express every articulation or timbre adjustment. Turning raw MIDI into full-sounding instrumentation can require time-consuming work, specialist programming and large sample libraries. Suno presents the new option as a way to hear full instrumentation without assembling that production setup.

Simple Create and Studio 2.0

At launch, MIDI uses Simple Create with v6-wild, and Suno plans to expand its MIDI capabilities over time. Suno’s v6 release notes describe v6-wild as an exploration-oriented counterpart to the reliable, precise flagship v6, producing less predictable, more varied, unexpected, textured and ambitious results.

The Create addition is separate from Studio 2.0, launched on August 13, 2026. That release added MIDI import, recording and editing to Studio’s timeline, a wavetable synth and MIDI clips as prompts for new audio generations. Users could play notes with a MIDI controller or typing keyboard, and the release was available to Premier subscribers. The new workflow starts with an existing file on the Create page and extends MIDI-based creation to Pro subscribers as well as Premier.

The practical change is that musical structure can enter Suno’s workflow before any audio exists. For subscribers working from scores or saved sessions, Create offers a route from their own notes and timing to generated instrumentation, with the prompt determining whether the original material is reproduced closely or used as a starting point for variation.

With an artistic and reflective lens, Rhea examines AI not as a replacement for human creativity, but as a new medium—one that challenges authorship, originality, and cultural norms. She is particularly interested in how artists, designers, and filmmakers are integrating AI into their workflows, and how these technologies influence aesthetics, storytelling, and creative labor.
