How to write Suno's Style field: describe the feel, not chord names
2026.10.29
Suno does not read chord names. Wherever you write "Fmaj9 - E7 - Am9" — Style, Exclude or Lyrics — it is ignored and the song is built on common chords.
What to write instead
Write the feel of the sound.
descending minor seventh chain, II-V turnaround feel- Write more about how it sounds than which instruments: playing style, reverb, density, processing
- Write it thick, up to 700–1000 characters
Settings
| Model | v6 |
|---|---|
| Weirdness | 80 |
| Style Influence | 80–100 |
| Variety | Off (under More Options) |
If Variety stays on Normal, Suno rewrites your Style. Keep it Off.
When the progression still doesn't match
The progression is set by the audio you upload, not by Style. The steps for delivering a progression as sound instead of chord names are in another note, "How to make Suno follow your chord progression".
