How to Prompt Suno AI to Use Animal Sounds and Noises

Understanding the Problem

Many users find it challenging to get Suno AI to generate animal sounds or other specific noises in their tracks. Despite various attempts with different prompts, the AI often fails to produce the desired effects.

Solution Overview

To successfully prompt Suno AI to use animal sounds and noises, you need to use specific techniques and prompt structures. Here are some effective strategies:

Strategy 1: Use Bracketed Prompts

Use bracketed prompts in all-caps to indicate the desired sounds. This helps the AI understand that you want these effects included.

[GUNSHOTS FX, BIRDS CHIRPING FX, CRICKETS FX, THUNDERSTORM FX]

Strategy 2: Limit the Number of Prompts

Avoid overloading the prompt with too many effects at once. Instead, use a few prompts and repeat them if necessary.

[GUNSHOTS FX], [BIRDS CHIRPING FX], [CRICKETS FX]

Strategy 3: Experiment with Different Phrasing

Try different wording and combinations to see which works best. Sometimes altering the phrasing slightly can make a big difference.

[SCREAMING], [DINOSAUR ROAR], [CHAINSAW]

Examples and Additional Tips

Example 1: Combining Prompts

Try using a combination of prompts in the “Style” section and the “Custom Editor” lyrics box. Use commas to separate them.

STYLE: [TRIBAL VOCALS], [ANIMAL NOISES]
CUSTOM EDITOR: [BIRD SONG], [JUNGLE SOUNDS]

Example 2: Specific Sound Effects

Experiment with very specific sound effects to see if Suno AI can generate them.

[THUNDER CLAP], [WOLF HOWL], [OCEAN WAVES]

Example 3: Uncommon Effects

Test out less common effects to push the boundaries of what Suno AI can generate.

[CHAINSAW], [LIAR BIRD IMITATING A CHAINSAW]

Additional Tip: Dispute Incorrect Results

If the AI produces something unexpected, keep trying with slight variations or dispute the claim if you believe it’s a mistake. This can sometimes lead to better results upon human review.

By following these strategies and experimenting with different prompts, you can increase the likelihood of getting Suno AI to include the animal sounds and noises you want in your music.
