- Check provider files:
suno.md,udio.md,stable-audio.md,musicgen.md,mubert.md,soundraw.md,riffusion.md,replicate.md - Check
prompting.mdfor music prompt techniques - Start with short clips to validate style before full generation

- Layer generations — combine outputs for richer sound
- Use stems — mix individual elements for control
- Match context — consider where audio will be used
- Iterate — first generation rarely perfect
