| Tag | Status | Notes |
|---|---|---|
[style: none] |
❌ Invalid | "none" is not interpreted as a meaningful style. Will confuse output. |
[section: ...] |
❌ Redundant | Rejected or misread; use [intro: ...], [verse: ...] etc. |
[theme: ...] |
❌ Invalid | unlabelled theme tag is ignored or causes parsing errors, use [theme A: ...] etc. |
bpm, key, language.The following tags deleted as either highly unstable or not supported: accent, autotune, bpm, emoion, key, language, loop, master, melody, mix, filter, panning, style:none, sing-style, section, song-type, unlabeled theme, volume, intensity
Any unrecognized tag (e.g. [emotion build], [tense development]) is treated as a generic [section X: ...] tag.
Use colon syntax to embed directives safely:
[tense development: Style and mood of the theme gets more tense until a climactic counterpoint is reached]
[tense development]
Style and mood... ← ❌ becomes lyrics
Avoid inserting lyrics/text to sing as [verse] colon notation: the engine will only sing that text if doesn't find obvious rendering directives; place the verse lyrics immediately below its [verse] tag
To prevent looping: do not repeat identical lyrics or tag sections verbatim; add variation or split across multiple [verse A], [verse B] etc.
For structure: always include [sequence: ...] to control order when extending or building long-form compositions.
Suno v4.0 and v4.5 share the same meta-tag system in spirit, but there are notable differences in how tags are interpreted and how reliably they influence the music between these two versions. Key version-dependent differences include:
Natural Language Prompting: Suno v4.5 is significantly better at understanding descriptive, sentence-form prompts with embedded tags, whereas v4.0 tended to respond mostly to more rigid, shorthand tags. In v4.0, users often listed a sequence of tags or keywords (e.g. [Intro], [Verse], [Chorus], or Mood: energetic | Genre: Pop | Vocals: Female etc.) and kept instructions terse. With v4.5, the model can parse richer language around tags. The Suno v4.5 update was tuned to "understand and translate your descriptions" of mood, instruments, and style with more nuance. An official guide notes that v4.5 still supports the old bracket tags format, "but now responds better when those tags are embedded into natural, full-sentence instructions.". In short, v4.0 required more prompt "keyword telegraphing," while v4.5 allows a more conversational prompt with tags inside it. For example: instead of just writing [Chorus: anthemic], a v4.5 user might write a full line like "The [chorus] should hit with [anthemic] vocal harmonies and huge drums," and v4.5 will follow that more accurately than v4.0 would. This reflects improved prompt adherence in v4.5. Users have found they can be more verbose and specific in v4.5 without confusing the model.
Prompt Adherence and Reliability: Overall v4.5 is more reliable in obeying meta-tags than v4.0 was. Suno v4 sometimes ignored or only loosely followed tags (especially complex style directives), leading to user frustration. In fact, some early v4.0 users complained that "I can’t get Suno to obey the style tags, it’s as if they are not used at all...". By contrast, v4.5’s improved prompt fidelity means tags like [Intro], [Bridge], [Mood: X], etc., more consistently shape the output. A Redditor noted that "steering the final product with style tags is a lot better now [in 4.5]" and that they can even use more natural phrasing instead of hunting for the perfect v4-era keyword. In summary, where v4.0 might gloss over a bracket tag or require multiple re-rolls to get the effect, v4.5 more often gets it right on the first try (especially for genre and mood tags, thanks to prompt adherence improvements).
Structural Tags and Song Length: Both versions support tags like [Verse], [Chorus], etc., but v4.5 can handle longer structures. Suno v4.0 was limited to about ~4 minutes of song, often requiring an Extend feature to continue. In v4.5 the max length doubled to 8 minutes, and the model maintains coherence over that length. This means tags delineating multiple verses and choruses (or multiple [Theme A], [Theme B] sections in a long piece) are more feasible in v4.5. The tags themselves didn’t change, but the behavior is that v4.0 sometimes truncated or ignored later structural tags if the song was too long, whereas v4.5 can actually execute a full structure from intro to extended outro with all tags accounted for. Additionally, v4.5 introduced an improved "Cover+Persona" mode and better Extend, but those are features beyond the lyric meta-tags (except that [extend-style] tag from the doc is less needed now since v4.5 can natively go long).
Deprecated vs Replacement Tags: The transition from earlier versions to v4 introduced some tag deprecations. For example, as noted above, [sing-style] was used in Suno’s early alpha but by v4.0 it was replaced by [vocal-style]. Similarly, [song-type] was an early tag to indicate if the piece should be a song, rap, instrumental, etc., but by v4.0 it was rendered inert. Another subtle change: older prompts sometimes used [style] for genre/style, but in v4.0+ it became more effective to use [genre:] and specific style qualifiers (because "[style: none]" had proven invalid and you needed to actually name a style). These differences were captured in the documentation’s errata, but it’s worth noting they specifically affect v3-era vs v4-era usage. By the time of v4.0, those older tags were already phased out, and v4.5 continued to ignore them. In practical terms, a user coming from Suno v3.5 to v4.0 had to unlearn a tag like [bpm] or [section]. But between v4.0 and v4.5, there were not many new deprecations - mostly improvements in understanding rather than removal of tags (the major tag removals happened earlier, in the jump to v4).
Parameter Interpretation: Some tags retained the same name but improved their parameter handling in v4.5. For instance, the [tempo:] tag in v4.0 could accept broad terms like "slow" or "fast." Suno v4.5 still doesn’t take exact BPM numbers, but it got smarter about tempo descriptors - it will pick up on more nuanced phrases like "mid-tempo 90s hip-hop swing" within a tag or prompt. Another example is the [vocal-style:] or [vocal-tone:] parameters: v4.0 might understand basic values (whispered, raspy, etc.), but v4.5 has a greater range of vocal texture it recognizes (you can specify things like "nasal, twangy" or "smooth crooning" in v4.5 and it more likely yields a difference, whereas v4.0 would often ignore such fine detail unless it was a preset tag). The underlying model upgrade in v4.5 "captures subtle musical elements" better, which extends to tag parameters for subtle dynamics (like the difference between a "soft" and "intense" whisper in [whisper:]). The documentation’s tag definitions didn’t change, but the outcome of using certain parameters (like [chorus: soft] vs [chorus: anthemic]) is more distinct in v4.5 than it was in v4.0, thanks to the model’s improved fidelity.
Genre Tag Expansion: As mentioned, v4.5 expanded genre support. This isn’t a syntax change but a behavior change: a tag like [genre: jazz-house] or [genre: midwest emo] might have confused v4.0 (or defaulted to one genre, ignoring the hybrid), whereas v4.5 handles multi-genre combinations much more gracefully. The result is that some meta-tags that v4.0 would effectively not honor suddenly became meaningful in v4.5. For example, if you put [genre: punk rock meets classical] in v4.0, you’d likely get something incoherent or just one genre dominating. In v4.5, the same tag prompt can actually yield a convincing punk/classical crossover because the model learned genre blending. Therefore, users in v4.5 can utilize more imaginative genre tags or mashups, which is a new capability not reflected in the older documentation of tags.
In essence, Suno v4.0 and v4.5 use the same set of meta-tags for the most part, but v4.5 interprets them more accurately and with a broader palette. V4.5 encourages more descriptive usage of tags (embedding them in sentences, stacking multiple attributes) whereas v4.0 required a more minimal, list-based approach. This means certain tags that were technically available in v4.0 only truly became useful in v4.5. A concrete example: [Mood: Uplifting] [Genre: Gospel] [Style: Lo-fi] might yield something muddled in v4.0, but in v4.5 one could write, "Create an uplifting lo-fi gospel piece - [Mood: uplifting] [Genre: gospel] [Style: lo-fi], with a choir and dusty vinyl crackle," and it will surprisingly adhere to that vision. The tag names didn’t change, but the behavior and fidelity did from v4.0 to v4.5. Users should note these improvements when crafting prompts for the respective versions.
Suno’s meta-tag system covers both purely instrumental music and songs with vocals, and some tags are more relevant to one or the other. It’s important to distinguish how tags apply in instrumental tracks versus vocal tracks, and note any differences in v4.0/v4.5 behavior for each category:
Instrumental Tracks: To generate an instrumental (no vocals) piece, the key tag is [instrumental]. This tag explicitly tells Suno not to produce vocals, focusing on instruments only. The documentation defines [instrumental] as "ensures the track contains no vocals". In both v4.0 and v4.5, placing [instrumental] at the start of the lyrics prompt is the recommended way to get a music bed with zero singing. V4.5 seems to honor this even better (v4.0 sometimes would slip a faint vocal hum or oh’s, but v4.5 is more strict about it, likely due to improved prompt adherence). When using [instrumental], you can also specify a style parameter (e.g. [instrumental: orchestral cinematic composition]) to guide the flavor.
For instrumental pieces, structure tags like [Intro], [Verse], [Chorus] still can apply - they will just denote purely instrumental sections. For example, you might do:
[instrumental]
[intro: Slowly building strings and piano]
[verse: Main melody introduced on guitar]
[chorus: Full band enters with drums and bass]
This is valid in both v4.0 and v4.5. The difference is, v4.5 will likely produce a more coherent instrumental "song" with those sections (taking care to change up the instrumentation per tag), whereas v4.0 might have been more repetitive without vocals to lead. The documentation even gave track structure recommendations for instrumentals using normal section tags (intro, verse, etc.) but no vocals, illustrating that structural tags are not exclusively for sung lyrics.
Additionally, instrumental tracks often use solo and instrument tags extensively. Tags like [Instrument: Piano] or [Guitar Solo] become the "lead voice" in absence of vocals. Suno v4.5 can follow these well - e.g. [Instrument: Violin (Lead)] would likely make violin carry the melody. In v4.0 it also works, but perhaps with less nuance. The user doc defines a generic [instrument] tag to highlight a particular instrument in the arrangement, and an [instruments] tag to list multiple instruments for the whole track setup. Both of these are quite useful for instrumentals. For instance, one could prompt: [instruments: acoustic guitar, cajón, handclaps] to set the timbre palette of an instrumental. Suno v4.0 and v4.5 both pay attention to these lists, though v4.5 is better at correctly blending unusual combinations.
It’s also worth noting the [solo] tag (or instrument-specific solos) are primarily instrumental in nature. The doc provides [solo: ...] as a tag meaning an improvised instrumental solo section. In a song with vocals, a [solo] usually means an instrumental break (guitar solo, etc.). In a purely instrumental track, a [solo] might simply mean a single instrument is spotlighted. Both versions support it, but again v4.5 tends to produce more convincing solos (e.g. an electric guitar solo that actually sounds distinct and lead-like, whereas v4.0 solos might sound more like a continuation of the backing track). Community tags like [Drum Solo] or [Instrumental Break] are effectively specialized cases and work similarly across versions.
Songs with Vocals: For tracks that include singing or rapping, there are many vocal-related tags which wouldn’t apply to instrumentals. Basic structural tags like [Verse], [Chorus], [Bridge], [Outro] are chiefly used in vocal songs to organize lyrics and musical sections. Suno v4.0 and v4.5 both rely on these to know where to generate verses vs choruses. Typically, verses have new lyrics, choruses repeat the hook. If you use these tags in an instrumental track, the model might still create contrasting sections instrumentally (for example, a "chorus" section could bring in a fuller arrangement even if no words). But their primary purpose is for lyrical structure. V4.5 showed improvement in handling these - e.g. it produces more dynamic, distinct choruses and bridges than v4.0 did. The user comparison of v4 vs v4.5 noted "more varied sections and transitions" in v4.5’s instrumental output as well, meaning it followed the intended structure better.
For vocals specifically, tags like [Male], [Female], [Choir], [Duet] (and their v4.5 variants [Male Vocal], etc.) are crucial. They tell Suno what kind of voice to use. In a song context, you might start your lyrics with [female:] or simply tag the chorus with [choir] to add choral backing. Suno v4.0 did allow this, but v4.5 expanded the realism and range. For example, v4.5 can produce richer choir harmonies when given [Choir] - it understands parameters like "angelic" or "powerful" on that tag - whereas v4.0’s choir might have been more muted. The documentation lists detailed parameters for [choir] (layered, gospel, dissonant, etc.) which presumably apply to both versions, but v4.5 has the edge in executing those styles convincingly.
Another vocal-centric tag is [harmonies] / [background-vocals], which instructs adding harmony vocals behind the lead. In songs, this is widely used for choruses or to thicken important lines. The doc’s [background-vocals] tag (with parameters like harmonic, layered) is clearly for vocal tracks. Suno v4.0 could add background "oohs" or harmonies, but sometimes it struggled to keep them musically aligned. V4.5 does a better job - for instance, if you specify [background-vocals: layered harmonies in the chorus], v4.5 is more likely to produce a satisfying result (stacked harmonies on the chorus lines) than v4.0 was. This aligns with v4.5’s improved "richer vocals" claim.
Spoken segments and effects: In vocal songs, tags like [Spoken Word], [Rap] (if used) or things like [laugh], [sigh] (sound effect tags for vocals) come into play. The documentation included [laughter] as a tag for adding laughter SFX, which is obviously only relevant if vocals are present. Both v4.0 and v4.5 can inject these vocal effects if prompted (though these are more for fun - a well-placed evil laugh in a metal song, etc.). There is also a [whisper] tag in the doc, denoting a whispered vocal style. This is clearly vocal-oriented; you’d use it in a lyric line or section to get a whispery delivery. Notably, v4.5 handles whispered and spoken vocals more deftly - earlier versions sometimes sang the words anyway or made them too loud. V4.5, if given [whisper: ...] at the intro or verse, will often produce actual whispering voices, which adds a creepy or intimate effect as intended. This is another area where the tag’s behavior improved with the version.
Finally, persona/voice tags: In vocal songs, controlling the character of the voice is key. We discussed how [personae:] tag was a user-documented attempt to lock a voice persona (gritty male, etc.), but it’s not officially supported due to the Persona feature being separate. Instead, users achieve consistent voice by tagging the first verse or chorus with gender/range and tone (e.g. [Male: gritty baritone]). Both v4.0 and v4.5 allow that kind of description. V4.5 introduced the official Personas UI where you can simply select a voice profile (which was separate from the text prompt). If a Persona is selected, it essentially overrides what a meta-tag might try to do. So one could say a version-dependent behavior is: in v4.5, if you have a Persona chosen, tags like [Male Vocal] or [Female Vocal] might be redundant or ignored (because the model is already locked to a specific voice). In v4.0 (which had no Personas feature), those tags were the only way to specify voice gender. So usage shifts: v4.0 relied on meta-tags for voice selection, while v4.5’s UI offers Personas that achieve the same without tags - though you can still use tags if you want to mix multiple voices in one song (like a duet).
In summary, instrumental tracks tend to use tags focusing on instruments, solos, and overall structure, whereas vocal tracks use an additional layer of tags for voice type, lyrics structuring, and vocal effects/harmonies. Both v4.0 and v4.5 share the tag set, but v4.5 executes these with more fidelity (e.g. better separation of an instrumental break, more realistic backing vocals, clearer distinction between a verse and chorus as per tags). When crafting prompts, one should include tags appropriate to the content: for an instrumental, you’d definitely include [instrumental] and instrument tags; for a song, you’d use section and vocal tags (and not include [instrumental], since that would suppress vocals entirely). The good news is Suno v4.5 is versatile enough that you can even combine them - for example, some advanced prompts have a song with an instrumental intro: they literally write something like:
[Instrumental intro]
(guitar chords play, no vocals)
[Verse 1]
Lyrics start here...
And it works (the model starts with an instrumental intro then brings in vocals). This kind of nuanced control is exactly what meta-tags enable, and v4.5 handles it more "intelligently" than earlier versions.
