Text to Song

Give your idea a sound.

Text to song starts with a description of the music you want. In Songdio, use Quick mode to describe a mood, a scene or a story, then choose a style and generate a track. You can start with an idea before writing complete lyrics.

From idea to first draft

  1. 01

    Describe a clear musical direction

    Open the creator and choose Quick. Combine a genre, mood and a few instruments. Add a story if you want a vocal song. Specific details such as “soft drums” are easier to refine than “make it amazing”.

  2. 02

    Choose the voice or leave it instrumental

    Use the mood, style and singer controls where appropriate. Leave No Lyrics off for a vocal track. If you already have finished lyrics, switch to Custom and paste them into the lyrics field instead.

  3. 03

    Generate, listen and revise

    Sign in and check the available credits before generating. Listen for the arrangement, vocals and chorus. Change one part of the description for the next version so you can compare the effect.

Make the next version count.

For a personal song

Describe the occasion and emotional tone. Keep personal details you do not want to share out of the prompt. A birthday song, for example, can focus on a shared journey rather than a list of names.

For a video idea

Describe the scene and energy: a quiet morning, a quick montage or an upbeat reveal. If narration needs room, try the instrumental workflow and listen for distracting lead melodies.

Common questions

Do I need to write lyrics first?

No. Quick mode starts from a description. Use Custom when you want to supply or edit the lyrics yourself.

What belongs in a music prompt?

Start with genre, mood, instruments and vocal direction. Add an arrangement detail such as a restrained verse or a larger chorus. Avoid piling up conflicting instructions.

Can I control the result exactly?

A prompt gives the model direction rather than a fixed musical score. Results vary, and exact timing, wording or arrangement may need further iteration.
