How to use Music Generator

A compact decision guide for placing this pipeline in a workflow.

Best for

Background scores for documentaries, podcasts, and videos
Mood-setting ambient music, cinematic underscore, lo-fi, orchestral
Genre-specific tracks anchored to a reference style (EDM, trailer, corporate uplifting)

Tips

Be specific about mood: 'dark cinematic orchestral, slow tension build, suspenseful atmosphere' not 'dramatic'
Request duration ~10% longer than video to ensure full coverage
For background scores: request instrumental only, no vocals

Frequently Asked Questions

What audio format is the output?

High-quality MP3, ready to drop into any video editor or browser. Files land in your asset library for immediate use in the Video Reel pipeline.

How long can the track be?

From 10 seconds up to 5 minutes. Eleven Music covers the full range, while Lyria 3 Pro caps at 3 minutes. Pick the requested duration on the slider; generated length can vary slightly.

Are tracks instrumental or do they have vocals?

Vocals are allowed by default. Turn them off to require or request an instrumental bed under narration, where singing would compete with the speaking voice. When vocals are enabled, the model still follows the prompt and may choose an instrumental arrangement.

Can I use generated music commercially?

Yes. All generated music is cleared for commercial use. Check the usage policies for platform-specific restrictions.

How specific should my prompt be?

Very. Instead of 'happy music', try 'upbeat acoustic guitar with light percussion, 120 BPM, summer road trip feeling'. Naming instruments, tempo, and emotional arc produces much better results.
