Musician Tests Suno: How Much Performance DNA Survives AI Regeneration
Sonic_Improv · reddit · 2026-08-27
A veteran musician with 20 years of experience ran an experiment: uploading a rusty, un-quantized live guitar performance of his own song to Suno with an elaborate style prompt, then aligning the output with the original performance on video to compare.
Key finding: even after full regeneration, much of the performance's 'DNA' — the human micro-timing nuances — survives. The author argues that recording to a click track in Pro Tools killed the life of live performance, and AI production instead offers a way to give human nuance high production value. He shares a playlist comparing original recordings with AI-generated versions, framing the project as a time capsule of this transitional era.
