What tuned means
On a plan, Songcode composes tuned. Tuned composition writes better ode at every quality level, and tuned prompts turn a few words into a full brief before the song is written.
Tuned is what a plan adds to how Songcode writes. It has two parts, and both are on by default: tuned composition, which is how Songcode writes the ode, and tuned prompts, which is how it reads what you asked for.
With your own key, Songcode writes with the model and reasoning you pick, and your prompt goes as you typed it. Everything else in the Studio works the same either way.
#Tuned composition
On a plan, Songcode composes from its own tuned instructions for ode, kept on Songcode’s side. They are made for one job: writing ode that sounds composed. There is no model to pick and no key to bring.
You choose how much care a track gets in the composition quality row, marked tuned:
| quality | what it is for |
|---|---|
| fast | a quick sketch, and the least of the week |
| balanced | the everyday pick for most tracks |
| extra | the strongest ordinary track |
| ultra compose | the deepest pass Songcode makes: a longer, more composed full song that takes several minutes and several times the usage. See ultra compose. |
Every level is tuned. Higher quality uses more of the week; the ? next to the row says so, and the usage bar under the generate button shows how much is left. Usage has the details.
#Tuned prompts
A short prompt leaves most of a song open. With tuned on, Songcode turns a short prompt into a full brief before the song is written: the key and tempo, each part’s job, a theme and where the song goes. A detailed prompt is kept close to how you wrote it.
- The switch. Above the prompt, as written and tuned pick how Songcode reads it. It wakes up once there is text in the box. Tuned is the default.
- What you see. When you generate, the words in the box turn into the brief, and that brief is the song’s prompt from then on. Edit it, or generate again from it.
- Both are kept. In a saved song, a draft or a .songcode file, the switch turns the box back into your words and forward into the brief again.
- Only for you. Your prompt and its brief stay with you. A published song never hands either to anyone, and a remix starts with no prompt.
#How to get it
Tuned comes with every plan, and a plan comes with a week of usage. See pricing for the plans, and billing for how buying one works.
