File Download Failures

This section addresses common issues users may encounter when attempting to download files from Suno, focusing on file format availability and potential solutions.

File Format Restrictions​

Suno's subscription tiers determine the available download formats. Users on the Basic plan can download audio files in mp3 format and video files in m4a format. The option to download in wav format is exclusively available to Pro and Premier subscribers. If you are a Basic user and do not see the wav download option, this is due to your subscription level. Ensure you are logged into the correct account associated with your subscription.

Download Tools and Methods​

When encountering download issues, consider the method you are using to download your files.

Browser-Based Downloads​

The most straightforward method is downloading directly from the Suno website. Ensure your browser is up-to-date and that there are no extensions interfering with the download process.

Third-Party Downloaders​

Various third-party tools can facilitate downloads, each with its own strengths and weaknesses.

Online Tools​

Online downloaders, such as the Suno Music Downloader, offer a free, cross-platform solution accessible via any browser. These tools typically involve copying and pasting a link to download the desired file. They are convenient for general and mobile users.

Browser Extensions​

Chrome extensions, like Suno Downloader, integrate directly with the Suno website, adding a download button for easier access. These are suitable for users who primarily use Google Chrome and frequently download content.

Desktop Applications​

Open-source desktop software, such as the Windows Desktop App, provides an offline solution for Windows users. These applications may require some technical knowledge for setup.

Customizable Templates​

Tailwind UI site templates are available for developers who wish to create a highly customized download solution. These templates require development skills for setup and configuration.

Troubleshooting Download Problems​

If you are experiencing download failures, consider the following steps:

  1. Verify Subscription: Ensure your subscription level allows for the desired file format (wav for Pro and Premier, mp3 and m4a for Basic).
  2. Check Internet Connection: A stable internet connection is necessary for successful downloads, particularly for online tools.
  3. Browser Compatibility: If using a browser extension, ensure it is compatible with your browser and that it is up-to-date.
  4. Software Installation: If using a desktop application, ensure it is correctly installed and configured.
  5. Try Different Tools: If one method fails, try another download tool or method.
  6. File Integrity: If the file downloads but is corrupted, try downloading again. If the problem persists, consider using a different download method.

Using the Cover Feature​

Suno's "cover" feature can be used to refine and polish existing songs. When a song has been modified using external tools, the cover feature can help unify and smooth the track. This can be particularly useful when a song's cohesion is lost after making edits. Using the cover feature with the same genre tags can help polish the track.
