Suno AI Editor Update: New Features & How to Use Them

Suno AI’s latest update brings powerful new tools to its music editor, making it easier than ever to refine and customize your AI-generated songs. Whether you want to crop, replace, extend, or fade out sections of your track, this new interface streamlines the process. In this guide, we’ll break down the key features and how to use them effectively.


Navigating the New Suno AI Editor

Suno AI’s new Edit Mode is more accessible, allowing users to jump straight into editing with a few clicks. Here’s how to get started:

1️⃣ Access the Editor:

  • Click the Edit button on your song.
  • Alternatively, use the three-dot menu (⋮) next to your track and select "Edit."
  • Choose from Crop Song or Replace Section—it will open directly to the feature you selected.

2️⃣ Understanding the Layout:

  • Lyrics View: Displays all lyrics with different colors for verses, choruses, and bridges.
  • Audio Waveform: A visual representation of the music, showing timing and structure.
  • Tag Recognition: Suno AI now detects and highlights song sections based on your prompt tags (e.g., "Verse 1 – Male," "Chorus – Female").
  • Undo/Redo Buttons: Quickly revert changes if needed.

Replace Section Feature: How to Edit Lyrics & Music

Suno AI’s Replace Section tool allows users to modify parts of their song without starting over.

Steps to Replace Lyrics or Music:

  1. Select a Section: Click and drag to highlight the lyrics/audio portion you want to change.
  2. Use the Timestamp: Helps ensure accurate selection based on timing.
  3. Adjust Settings:
    • Keep Duration (maintains original timing).
    • Instrumental Mode (removes vocals while keeping the music).
    • Manual Lyrics Replacement (fine-tune word selection).
  4. Generate Replacement: Click “Generate Replacement” and let Suno AI create an alternative version.
  5. Review & Apply: Listen to different options and choose the best fit.

🚨 Pro Tip: Suno AI works best when replacing small sections rather than large ones. If replacing full verses or choruses, expect some trial and error.


Extend Feature: Make Your Song Longer

The Extend feature is useful for adding new sections or fixing abrupt endings.

How to Extend Your Song:

  1. Select the point where you want to extend.
  2. Add a descriptive note (e.g., "Fade out smoothly" or "Add a second bridge").
  3. Click “Generate Extension” to create additional music.

🎵 Best Use Case: If your song ends too suddenly, you can extend the outro for a more natural finish.


Crop Feature: Trim Unwanted Parts

If your song includes extra instrumental sections or unwanted audio, the Crop feature lets you remove them.

Steps to Crop Your Song:

  1. Select the portion you want to keep (everything outside this will be removed).
  2. Click “Crop” to finalize.
  3. Review the new version before saving.

Fade Out Feature: Smooth Song Endings

If your track ends abruptly, the Fade Out tool can create a natural-sounding conclusion.

How to Apply a Fade Out:

  1. Select the last few seconds of your song.
  2. Click “Fade Out” to apply a smooth transition.
  3. Adjust the fade length if needed.

🎵 Why Use This? Instead of an awkward cut-off, your song will end gradually, sounding more polished.


Final Thoughts: Should You Use the New Suno AI Editor?

Suno AI’s updated editor is a game-changer for AI music creators. It provides more control over your songs, allowing you to replace, extend, crop, and fade out sections easily. While some features (like Replace Section) are still evolving, the improvements in usability make it worth using.

💡 Key Takeaways:
Use Replace Section for small lyric/melody tweaks.
Extend your song when you need a longer outro or new section.
Crop unwanted parts to keep your track clean.
Apply Fade Out for professional-sounding endings.
