Suno, a company specializing in artificial intelligence (AI) music generation, has officially launched its new v6 family of AI music models. This update marks the beginning of a formal partnership with major music labels such as Warner Music Group, BMG, and Believe. The v6 series includes three models: v6, v6-wild, and v6-mini. The v6 model is designed for reliability and precision, producing polished music across various genres and styles. The v6-wild model is more experimental and creative, aimed at helping users explore new musical ideas. The v6-mini model is accessible to free users, while v6 and v6-wild require a Pro or Premier subscription. The new models offer significant improvements in speed, allowing users to hear generated music almost instantly after entering a prompt. Additional features include the ability to edit specific parts of a song using natural language, create mashups from multiple sources in one request, and more accurate sampling of music. The models also have enhanced multi-modal understanding, meaning they can generate music based on audio, images, or video. Users can now describe a desired emotion for a song, and the AI will attempt to match that feeling in the composition. They can also change a single lyric without having to regenerate the entire track. Jack Brody, Suno's chief product officer, explained that the v6 family was trained using new data, including licensed content from partners, user data, and extensive research and development. The partnership with labels like Warner Music and BMG began with the v6 launch on September 9, which is expected to generate revenue for the partners and offer new creative experiences with artists. In 2026, it was revealed that Suno had previously collected large amounts of music and podcasts from platforms like YouTube and Deezer to train earlier models. As the v6 models are introduced, these older models are being phased out. In 2024, several record labels, including Warner Music, sued Suno and another AI music company, Udio, over copyright issues. However, in 2025, Warner dropped its lawsuit against Suno in exchange for a licensing deal that gave its artists control over how their music and voices are used in AI-generated tracks.
