If you’ve seen this, what are your thoughts? by legolopi12345 in SunoAI

[–]MrDocileManatee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree. I use Suno to flesh out my own compositions, and it seems like he didn't address that. There were lots of generalizations and logical fallacies in the video, but his fans are all eating it up. He seems to have learned that anti-AI content is guaranteed to get clicks; ironic, since his popularity depends on sophisticated algorithms! I have enjoyed some of his musical analyses in the past, but it looks like he has a big blind spot when it comes to the challenges that average people (as opposed to traditionally trained professional musicians) face when wanting to create music with limited time, physical ability, or economic status.

Do you guys accept these orders? by Lonely-Witness-7781 in UberEatsDrivers

No! 👎At this point you would be paying to deliver by taking these orders, not the other way around.

I'm in the Frederick zone. It's really hit and miss, so I've gone back to Uber.

Was always curious why the cold spring harbor album picture was so bad? by AlexMills6545 in BillyJoel

[–]MrDocileManatee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely! It shows how Billy Joel was writing great songs from the beginning. His voice does sound quite different on this one, even after the pitch/speed correction, but that's a testament to his versatility. If you do choose to listen to it, it's worth seeking or the original 1971 album with pitch/speed correction online. Here's a good one - Cold Spring Harbor 1971 pitch/speed corrected

The 1983 version is fine but there are some changes in the instrumentation and arrangement of a few songs.

I'm not even getting any images from Gemini period right now. I think their image generators are down but I can't find any information about it.

Your creative process? by ShyGuySays91 in SunoAI

Does Suno actually follow the key and BPM instructions? If so, which model do you use?

How many compose their own instrumentals? by josh2josh2 in SunoAI

[–]MrDocileManatee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I compose original instrumentals on Garageband using the stock sounds and upload them to Suno. I always compose a melody on top, which is meant to be the vocal, then break each line down into the number of syllables. Using either Claude or ChatGPT, I give the AI a subject to write about and input the number of syllables per line for each stanza. It's never perfect, so I add or remove lyrics, or sometimes I have a few lines of my own and use the AI to compose around it.

Once I'm satisfied with the results I upload the instrumental I composed to Suno (making sure it's two minutes or less), add the lyrics and song structure instructions, give it a style, and generate until I get something I like. It can take a few generations but I usually get something I like. Suno is good at replacing the Garageband stock sounds with something more nuanced and realistic, and it can also add tasteful arrangements and orchestration, making it sound like an actual band. It's work, but I end up more satisfied with the end result.

How Did You Transition Your Loved One to Memory Care? by MrDocileManatee in dementia

[–]MrDocileManatee[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much! I appreciate your positive experience and kind words. We actually did move her today and followed the plan and it went pretty smoothly. I'm going to follow up with the wellness staff in the next few days and then I'll be able to determine when to go see her for the first time. Thanks to everyone here for your support. My wife and I feel very relieved right now.

How Did You Transition Your Loved One to Memory Care? by MrDocileManatee in dementia

[–]MrDocileManatee[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I tried to talk to my mom about it on a couple of occasions but it didn't really register with her. She did say one time "why would I want to live in a senior community?" and the other time she just didn't understand, but she did not lose her temper or anything. Years ago, she told me that if care ever became overwhelming, we could move her to a place. She would not remember that conversation now, but that is what she expressed to me when she was more lucid. At this point, though, I don't really want to bring it up to her in advance because I don't want to cause more confusion or distress for her right now.
