Udio still sounds better than all the competition

Yes, downloads may be disabled. But it still sounds the most natural, the vocals and the instruments. It also flows naturally.

Even the bad generations sometimes have a good instrumental or even vocal that just sounds good.

Sometimes it is the gibberish vocals that have the best melodies, all it needs is a remix.

Suno and the other AI's just don't have this natural flow and progression, it's been years and even though Udio hasn't had any major update, it's still better.

I don't know what it is, but you'll see on social media, most people use Suno and you can just immediately tell it's Suno, Suno has this metallic sound on both the instruments and vocals that is very grating, even the latest version cannot seem to shake this off.

It is like the base and foundations of Udio is far superior.

It is a shame downloads were disabled. Hopefully they'll be enabled in the future. The stems were better, uploading your own audio is better to it just interprets it better.
