Pro Tips for Perfect Music

1. Use Descriptive Adjectives

Bad prompt: "music"

Good prompt: "upbeat, energetic, modern, inspiring, electronic"

More descriptive = better results.

2. Always Include BPM

BPM is powerful signal for AI.

"120 BPM" tells AI how fast/energetic to be.

3. Specify Instrumentation

Specific instruments = better quality.

4. Always Say "Instrumental"

Unless you specifically want vocals (rare), always add "instrumental."

Otherwise AI might add singing (distracting during your narration).

5. Generate Multiple Versions

Don't use first generation.

Generate 5 times with same prompt.

Pick best one.

Each generation is unique. Some are better than others.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Mistake 1: Too Generic Prompt

"background music" = mediocre result

"upbeat tech tutorial background, inspiring, modern" = excellent result

Mistake 2: Wrong Duration

Generating 10-minute music for 30-second video = wastes credits.

Match duration to your video.

Mistake 3: Ignoring Tempo

Tempo dramatically changes how music feels.

60 BPM = slow, meditative

140 BPM = fast, energetic

Mismatch = jarring for viewers.

Mistake 4: Music Too Loud

Music should be background. Not in foreground.

If viewers notice the music, it is too loud.

Use volume: -6 to -3 dB in video editor.

Mistake 5: Reusing Same Track

If you use same track for multiple videos, bored viewers notice.

Generate new music for each video.

Unlimited generation makes this easy.
