Questions
Is there a free Suno prompt guide PDF?
Yes. This one is free, 38 pages, with 316 prompts and a cheat sheet. You can share it; please keep the Lyro Music credit.
Do these prompts work in Suno and Udio?
They are written as plain style descriptions that any text-to-music tool can read. They avoid artist names and quality words, which many tools reject or ignore. We tested words on ACE-Step 1.5 only, and say so where it matters.
Is there an online version?
Yes. Every prompt in the book is also on the site, in the prompt library, with more prompts per page and answers to common questions.
How often is the PDF updated?
When the prompt library changes. The date on the cover shows the edition; this one is September 2026.
