Plain-language section edit
Section edit lets you describe the change you want in everyday language—raise the gospel choir on the chorus, soften the verse drums, or rewrite a bridge lyric—without regenerating the entire song blindly.
Edit like a producer note
Write instructions the way you would text an engineer: "Keep the verse intimate, explode into a choir on chorus 2, trim the last bar of the bridge."
Mashup workflows
Mashups in the V6 toolkit are about intentional collision. A launch-style example keeps vocals and drums while moving the harmonic world into 80s synthwave. Decide what identity must survive, then change only the surrounding genre skin.
- Lock identity elements (vocal tone, drum pocket).
- Swap harmonic/synth palette explicitly.
- Use Wild when you want riskier blend takes.
Sampling cues
Sampling references help the model lean on a moment you already love. Point at a riff around 0:45 or describe the bar you want echoed. Always respect rights and plan terms—licensed partnerships with Warner, BMG, and Believe do not automatically clear every personal sample source.
| Technique | Best model | Tip |
|---|---|---|
| Section rewrite | v6 | Be specific about which section |
| Style mashup | v6-wild | State what must remain unchanged |
| Riff sample cue | v6 / wild | Include a timestamp when possible |
Multimodal references
When multimodal refs are available, add a second signal—mood board language, a hummed motif description, or arrangement references—so the model is not guessing from text alone.
