Suno V4 Review (2024 Archive): Features, Feedback & What Changed
This page preserves what creators were seeing when Suno V4 was new: the feature jump, the community reaction and a real V4-era video review. It is historical evidence, not current model, pricing or setup guidance.
Where Suno is now
Suno moved well beyond V4. V6 launched on September 9, 2026 with the V6, V6-wild and V6-mini model family, broader creation options and much deeper editing workflows.
Suno has also said it is moving generation onto V6 and retiring previous models. That makes the V4 material below useful as a record of how the platform evolved—not a reason to choose V4 today.
If you are learning the current tool, use the V6 training links near the bottom of this page. The 2024 review remains here so older examples, reactions and expectations are not rewritten after the fact.
What V4 introduced at the time
In late 2024, V4 felt like a meaningful jump because it improved several areas creators had been asking Suno to strengthen. The original review highlighted:
Cleaner sound
Creators noticed less background noise and clearer vocals, making outputs feel more polished than earlier generations.
Remastering
Older tracks could be revisited through the newer model, giving creators a way to compare how model upgrades changed the same underlying idea.
Personas
The early Persona workflow pointed toward a bigger need: keeping recognizable vocal or artist characteristics across more than one song.
Lyrics and prompting
V4 was seen as more responsive to detailed instructions and capable of stronger lyric-to-song integration than earlier versions.
Historical V4 video: MattVidPro AI
The original article referenced a V4-era review from MattVideoProductions / MattVidPro AI. That video is still valuable because it shows the platform as creators actually experienced it at the time rather than through a 2026 rewrite.

Track remastering
Older tracks such as “Southern Christmas” were remastered to show how the newer model changed fidelity and presentation.
Fun experiments
Tracks including “Super Soup” and “Pass the Butter” showed how humor and unusual concepts could still produce musically coherent results.
Custom songs
The review also explored personalized songs with more complicated lyrical themes and style direction.
Community feedback from the V4 era
This feedback is preserved as a snapshot of what creators were praising, criticizing and asking for at the time.
What people liked
- Improved vocal clarity made tracks easier to listen to.
- Remastering gave older songs a second life and made model-to-model comparison possible.
- Personas suggested a path toward more consistent vocal or project identity.
What people still criticized
- Some instruments, especially high-pitched sounds and guitars, could still feel artificial or unstable.
- Creators reported a tendency toward pop-style outputs when they wanted more experimental or cinematic results.
- More advanced control over instruments, vocals and mixing was still missing.
What creators were asking for
- Better multi-vocalist and choir control, including clearer male/female role direction.
- More precise tempo, lyric timing and chord control.
- More flexibility for unusual harmony and experimental composition.
What aged well — and what changed
Aged well: creators were already asking for better continuity, more detailed editing, stronger control and ways to improve existing material without rebuilding everything. Those needs became central to later Suno workflows.
Changed: V4 is no longer the current decision point. V6 now supports a much broader set of creation and editing tasks, including focused plain-language changes, Replace Section, Extend, Cover, mashups, sampling workflows and multimodal starting points.
The useful lesson: model names change faster than creative problems. Keep the old review for evidence; use current training for current decisions.
How to read the old V4 verdict now
The original review asked whether V4 was “worth it” and referenced the plan and pricing structure available at that time. That pricing reference is now archival only. It should not be used to make a 2026 purchase decision.
What still matters is the comparison logic: did a newer model materially improve the things you care about—clarity, identity, adherence, arrangement, editing and the ability to protect good work instead of starting again?
About the historical source
MattVideoProductions, also known as MattVidPro AI, covers AI tools and creative technology. The linked video is retained because it documents Suno V4 in use during its own era. View the original V4 video →
Use the current V6 training instead
Replace one problem section
Repair a specific part without pretending the whole song failed.
Current Replace Section guide →Extend a keeper
Use V6 Extend as a production decision instead of a random continuation.
Current V6 Extend guide →Edit instead of restart
Work through the current Song Editor workflow when the concept is right but a local part needs repair.
Current Song Editor workflow →Archive rule: historical screenshots, reviews, pricing and model behavior are preserved as historical evidence. Current decisions should be based on current Suno documentation and current Jack Righteous training.
