Like, geeze

[vale lake]

hmmm

yas

[strange gorge]

[strange gorge]

So: yolkhead, look at these two images. They aren't special on their own but look how Flux accurately doubles the images of the products

That blue and green box is represented twice in a single image, perfectly. Same with the frankly giant game boy in the other one

As far as I know that's not common at all with any Stable Diffusion setup

[graceful swan]

Seems like I have to set up something i guess

theye are too good not to try myself

[vale lake]

wooooow

that's amazing

I mean, just the fact that its making amagazine

magazine

its pretty insane

that's a huge amount of progress

[vale lake]

what was the prompt for these, that's amazing

circa 1988 catalog advertisement for the video game console "ULTRA GAME BOX" featuring minimal text along the bottom that simple reads "ULTRA GAME BOX: SOON".
It shows a stylish living room filled with mist and fog, with the console on the floor shooting a beam of light upward, with the television screen flashing with colors. There is a curious dog tilting its head at the console on the floor.
The console itself is a slightly rounded purple and green plastic box.

and

circa 1988 catalog advertisement for the portable video game console "Soviet Boy", which is a USSR rip off of the popular game boy.
The photo of the console takes up most of the page, with an attractive Russian woman holding it while smiling.

[hasty hound]

who here uses Bandlab?

[strange gorge]

In-painting works quite well...as well, for FLUX if you haven't tried it yet. I swapped some letters on a licence plat to test it out and I think I have it dialed in.

Just booked tickets to see NOFX's last tour -- they're playing "So Long and Thanks For All the Shoes", "Pump Up the Valuum", and "The Decline" in their entireties.

I'm already crying with anticipation

[hardy lintel]

NOFX?

"So long and thx for all the fish" i know from the Hitchhikers Guide for the Galaxy 😄

[vale lake]

some more weird native gen experiments

this one is at cfg 15

[hasty hound]

where are you seeing them?

[limpid violet]

LA punk band that formed in 1983 -- a lot of changes from a skate-punk band to a really technical sound, with gut-puch honesty to their songwriting and a tinge of self deprecating humour

[hasty hound]

oh cool, I have been there

which venue?

[hardy lintel]

Sounds good but the way is too long from 🇩🇪

[limpid violet]

Oh cool! I only moved here recently -- did you ever spend time in Halifax? I miss it so much

[hasty hound]

yeah but in the late 1980s

[limpid violet]

They're playing at Casino New Brunswick -- but not a single venue in the world holds a flame to Call the Office (London Ontario, RIP)

[hasty hound]

I saw NOFX at the Big Day Out festival in either 1999 or 2000 I think

2002 https://www.setlist.fm/setlist/nofx/2002/olympic-park-sydney-australia-3bd2fc3c.html

time eludes me after so long

[limpid violet]

God damnit -- I forgot that the mentioned Tony Sly in Linewleum and now I'm a wreck. Lagwagon, No Use For a Name, and NOFX were really influential to young-theharber.

[hasty hound]

first real punk band I saw was the Sex Pistols in Manchester 1981

I was young and wild then 🙂

[limpid violet]

That would have been one HELL of a show 🙂

[hasty hound]

I also saw Joy Division in Manchester the year before

15 and getting in to night clubs 😄

I was so sad when Ian Curtis died

but then came New Order

[limpid violet]

@hasty hound , I'm just realizing that I express myself on Discord through formatted text, like this italicized section, or this bolded section, as well as through emoji-reactions on people's posts. Do you receive any voiceover indication for these, or is it largely conveyed through just the text alone?

[hasty hound]

Voice over emphasised the bolded text

I get emojis on Discord mostly

and I can do them just fine 🙃

[steep ridge]

Guys

How do I get key for script?

[limpid violet]

Okay, but this sentence doesn't present itself obviously as being italicized?

I also responded to your post before last with a white exclamation mark -- I apologize if this is out of place to ask, I'm just curious how my typical interactions are read by Discord 🙂

[limpid violet]

There is no roblox script here, the video lied. This is for making music

[steep ridge]

Dang

[hasty hound]

italics just come across as normal text

but my eyesight is pretty good tonight so I could read them also

[limpid violet]

I appreciate you sharing that! I'll try to use bold text for emphasis whenever I can to make it easier for voiceover users to understand my inflections 🙂

Thanks, man

You rock.

[hasty hound]

my vision impairment is neurological, by eyes function normally just my brain doesn't process vision all the time

I wear pretty heavy duty glasses which help because they have prisms to improve the vertical diplopia I suffer from

[whole dawn]

since you are here, go to suno.com and make some songs

[limpid violet]

@strange gorge I'm going through my old SD stuff and found this, made me think of you

[strange gorge]

heck yeah that rules

[limpid violet]

I went through a phase where I was making new iPhone wallpapers for each day, this was from October

[hasty hound]

not wanting to spam, was just testing

[vale lake]

oooooh baby

that's a good un

[oak flame]

69 views!!1111

[limpid violet]

nice 😉

[oak flame]

Yeah was just sending it do to the number 😂

[hasty hound]

just changed my avatar

[dark path]

i asked someone if they know someone that's a dealer
the conversation was extremely short and akward
what should i do so the conversation woudn't be so akward

how do i fix my mistakes

[flint sapphire]

so are you the guy behind the twitter adverts i keep getting about new AI-generated phone wallpapers every day 😅 apparently there's serious money in that

[edgy plover]

ancient voodoo artwork, looks like a tapestry

[limpid violet]

Conversation happened, that's already out in the ether -- if you feel a way about it, talk to the person about it, otherwise they've probably already forgotten it because they're way more worried about their own stuff and how embarrassed they felt when they said that thing to that other person.

[limpid violet]

wait -- people get paid for doing things?

I legit just made them for myself because I was excited I could finally make art beyond stick figures or music, I think I made a single post on pixelfed because I wanted to get back into social media, then I just didnt

[hasty hound]

I just subscribed to BandLab, I might try out their releases system for my next release

[normal turtle]

Hi guys is it ok if I post a song in the Showcase or do I need permission from someone first?

[pliant estuary]

Hope yall enjoy this! https://www.udio.com/songs/47PoMHFfpLSVgu7s9Vok8r

[flint sapphire]

oh yeah you could 100% put this online as the design for a phone case as a 'cottagecore' design and the amount of 20-something year olds that would snap that up would have you falling off your chair

slight exaggeration but still, the amount of some people selling some things online that they just generate is wacky

[vestal raven]

Have you ever thought about how suno looks in reality? I have a pic right here!

Also I have another pic of Woodhouse:

[half pawn]

leaked footage of woodhouse

[limpid violet]

That's closer than you'd think, but just give him stubble and make him drunk.

[vestal raven]

Look at his face, he is enjoying himself

[half pawn]

guys what u think of this song cover art made by AI?

ok now do you wanna listen to the song it goes to

[ashen fjord]

My take on Suno (Woodhouse was too scary to make). The last one may be a Spy 🤔

[vestal raven]

Looks like the good old Chirp!

But now chirp is retired, Woodhouse said It.

[limpid violet]

there's my boy

Kinda funny to imagine him using a cork, but it's still really good 👌

[limpid violet]

oooof, that multi-image permission flex

[ashen fjord]

Oh right, I forgot that people can't do that ;_;

Just... treat it as part of something Woodhouse allowed for unspecified favors

[limpid violet]

I'm just being a butt

[vestal raven]

If anybody have interest, the images are generated with Flux, the new generative AI that is starting to be what Stable Diffusion 3 couldn't

[limpid violet]

https://fal.ai/models/fal-ai/flux/schnell @ashen fjord

[ashen fjord]

It is amazing how fast this field has progressed

[vestal raven]

That's It! But I run It locally on my computer

I'm not a fan of depending of cloud services, I would love to run suno in local

[limpid violet]

Ugh -- are you using the 22gb model?

I absolutely refuse to believe that in such a short time I've become velocitized to my 4070ti

[vestal raven]

Yep! my 4090 is struggling but I made It work!

[hasty hound]

I have a MacBook Pro M2 Max with 96GB RAM, I can run almost any model I want

[dark path]

i didn't understand

[fluid field]

And here I am with my 3060

[limpid violet]

I'd still be on my 1660 super if AI wasn't a thing or were I not able to get the deal I did

[vestal raven]

There is a way to run It with less Vram according to what I read in reddit.

[limpid violet]

I doubt I would have moved on for ages -- 1660super was the goat

[fluid field]

Ima till trying to get SD to install on my pc again

[vestal raven]

Do you have external GPU? because macbooks internal GPUs are not very good

[limpid violet]

https://www.reddit.com/r/StableDiffusion/comments/1ehqr4r/you_can_run_flux_on_12gb_vram/

[hasty hound]

I have an M2 Max, the system uses unified memory which basically gives me VRAM of 70% of 96GB

[vestal raven]

Yeah! That Is!

[limpid violet]

Have you used Automatic1111?

[vestal raven]

So you have to run It in CPU mode, don't you?

[fluid field]

I have, but I need to get it reinstalled and it’s been a pain

[hasty hound]

no, GPU mode

[vestal raven]

With the internal GPU of a macbook? Does It run fine?

I mean, at good speed

[limpid violet]

I gotcha -- making sure you have the specific version of python, installed to path, having git, getting all of the dependencies, etc

[hasty hound]

yes it's a 36 core GPU, runs perfect

[fluid field]

Yeah, it’s been painful,

[vale lake]

@rocky haven

oh wrong channel

[vestal raven]

Well, I've just checked and is not a bad GPU but is kinda on the low spec side (comparable to a RTX 2080 Super Mobile). It's better than average GPUs but inferior to most modern gaming GPUs. It has the advantage of the unified ram.

[vestal raven]

There are portable versions of comfyui with everything pre-installed, you may check that If you don't get to make A1111 to work.

[fluid field]

Can you link if you can in a dm? I’m at work so I can’t look it up

[vestal raven]

Ok, let me look for It.

Found It! is a portable comfyui to use with pixart sigma but you can add other models and workflows.

DM sent

[viscid root]

Got this art from suno

[vestal raven]

Is that Elijah Wood as the tomato king?

🤣

[viscid root]

This one is worse ._. it almost feels like suno is starring directly at me

[vestal raven]

OMG!

[fluid field]

Was thinking of using this as cover art for something

[vestal raven]

Inverted Workflow, first the cover art and then the song.

[fluid field]

I usually use images I have and make lyrics based off them

[vestal raven]

It would be nice using the same prompt for suno and Stable diffusion and pair the song with the image.

[fluid field]

Yeah that would be cool

[vestal raven]

To be fair, the cover art generation in suno does something similar, but the model seems to be pretty limited.

[fluid field]

The ones I send were using NovelAI and the vibe transfer for gens

[vestal raven]

The novelAI leaked model?

[fluid field]

I don’t use the leaked model, I use the website

[vestal raven]

Oh, yes! the site where the leaked model came... 🤣

Sorry! I didn't tought about the fact the leaked model had to come from a site

I think I need a coffee

[fluid field]

Well yeah

[fluid field]

Can you send the dm again? I accidentally declined it

[vestal raven]

Yes!

Sent! did you get it?

[fluid field]

Yep! I’ll get it when I get home

[vestal raven]

Perfect! I hope you get It working without issue.

[sleek urchin]

much better, the camel isnt hidden as much anymore too! ❤️

[fluid field]

Have this much to remake 6 more songs

[pliant osprey]

I did a MJ gen using my —p style setting just for fun to see what it would look like, this is “post apocalyptic cute anime girl with camel”

[vestal raven]

A realistic look with Flux AI:

[cedar halo]

Oh dear lord

Too real! Haha

[wise merlin]

pink bracelets!!!!!!

[vestal raven]

I did not request anime stylo so the model opted for a realistic style

[cedar halo]

Give me #3 upscale

[vestal raven]

Now I requested anime style and sexy but I can't post the image here 🤣

[cedar halo]

Whoa I don't need a sexy pic

[vestal raven]

Well, asking for sexy It's a trick to make AI to make It look more interesting than sexy, but It looks like Flux AI takes the sexy thing more literal than I thought

This one is safer:

[cedar halo]

Lol why the ears

[vestal raven]

anime girl = random animal ears
I did not make the rules. 🤣

[fluid field]

I’m definitely using this one at some point

[strange gorge]

How about you guys make it so they are wearing a shirt that says it rather than just holding a sign

Make a store in the background calledf Stei Camel cmon

[limpid violet]

another mini wallpaper collection

[strange gorge]

Spray paint it on the side of the camel, anything besides sign

[cedar halo]

Because they are stragglers looking for me!

[strange gorge]

[cedar halo]

Like an airport

[cedar halo]

I like this

[pliant osprey]

On second thought I should reroll for a nicer “a” just a minute

[cedar halo]

V nice

[strange gorge]

A slight pet peeve of mine, everyone always just does a sign. You can do text on anything, especially with Flux its freakin' wild

[vestal raven]

This is nicer, great results for an untuned base model:

[cedar halo]

Pretty good, I haven't tried Flux yet

[limpid violet]

"anime wildflowers" or "abstract rainbow"?

[strange gorge]

It's a massive leap forward, no doubt

Better text than Midjourney, certainly

[cedar halo]

This is now the camel pic channel I guess

[vestal raven]

You won't believe me but I did this an hour ago:

[strange gorge]

never played it

spent all my time on CYBERASS

[vestal raven]

Don't worry, It was a sh*t game!

[pliant osprey]

Fixed the a

[pliant osprey]

Yeah Midjourney wears me out trying to get text, but I still love the variety of art styles

[cedar halo]

Lovely

[strange gorge]

Flux is a lot harder to 'get going'. Midjourney will fill in the details, Flux wants almost a novels worth of prompting

and you gotta prompt like "photo of a thing with a thing and there are other things and the one thing is thingy, the other is other thingy"

It's a totally different prompt style vs. SD or MJ

Real move is to use em' all though, move images all over

[pliant osprey]

I’ve been playing with Ideogram and it’s so weird to me to just ask for a style of text and it actually does it

[vestal raven]

@strange gorge yes, but the prompt style is more like natural language, with SD you had to learn how to ask things

[cedar halo]

I love ideogram for text, only reason I signed up

[strange gorge]

Exactly. I've been in the SD game for so long though that it's the way my brain wants to prompt for things

[pliant osprey]

If Ideogram would do 95:136 and then expand to square, it would be perfect

[strange gorge]

Flux also rules because running locally is A++

[vestal raven]

Yeah, I can't avoid to add commas, brackets, and overload with terms and adjetives.

[pliant osprey]

See, I’m at the bedside of a lady with dementia working on an iPad all day, so running locally is a no-go for me

I get like an hour a day on my actual computer

[vestal raven]

You can run It on your computer and connect to the computer with the ipad. A1111 and confyui are webservers by default

[pliant osprey]

Huh I didn’t know that, I will look into it

[strange gorge]

There is also something nice about just being able to go to midjourny and surf prompts

Flux is something else though

[pliant osprey]

I didn’t know Flux existed until you mentioned it, looking at the articles the realism looks very nice

[strange gorge]

It just came out

Yesterday?

[fluid field]

What do I need to run it?

[vestal raven]

It didn't exist (at least a public release) until a couple days ago 😉

[strange gorge]

12 gigs of vram though I guess people have been getting it to run on 4

So either VRAM or time

[fluid field]

I have 20gb vram on my 3060

[vestal raven]

The confiui I sent you a while ago and a couple more things, let me search

[strange gorge]

Then you should be golden

[cedar halo]

Yeah my ol 2080 probably won't cut it anymore

[fluid field]

12 dedicated and 8 shared

[pliant osprey]

Since I had the style I did one for myself too

[cedar halo]

Cute

[strange gorge]

I've got 24 gig-os and I can get a 1024x1024 (or various ratios of the same pixel count) at 14~ seconds a pop

[vestal raven]

Then the comfyui link I sent you and this #🗣️┃chill-chat message

[strange gorge]

About the fastest you can run it natively on your own machine

But if you go with the Schnell model you cna cut that down quite a lot

[pliant osprey]

I need a new machine, I’ve been using my husband’s for anything with heavy specs

[fluid field]

I usually use novel ai for my images, but maybe I’ll try it out when I get home from work (in about 3 hours)

[vestal raven]

This is nice:

[pliant osprey]

I like the Arabic looking type font

[vestal raven]

I kept with stei camel theme but I'm simply testing prompts

[fluid field]

I’ll have to find models if available, but I love creating stuff liked this

[vestal raven]

You can use the exact model of NovelAI you only have to look for It

Now Dothkn themed:

[pliant osprey]

If you use MJ the easiest way to do that is to put in a picture as a style prompt

[grim idol]

8 GB of system ram? I don't know about this new flux model, but for many models you could get a lot of benefit from just upgrading the 8 to 16 or ideally 32. It's cheap now. (Use two sticks of 16 instead of 4 sticks, is faster too.)

[strange gorge]

The real best part of MJ is image prompting

[fluid field]

No, the gpu has 8gb shared and 12gb dedicated, my pc has 16gb of ram

[pliant osprey]

also, let me spare a moment to praise Magnific for fixing wonky AI stuff

[strange gorge]

Someone about to get shot a stern talking to

[grim idol]

Typically the 'shared' GPU memory is not usable practically for things like Stable Diffusion, more about switching programs. But 16GB should be good yeah.

[strange gorge]

Flux is real cool, want everyone to play with it

[fluid field]

Answer instead of a book

[ashen fjord]

Not bending his back/knees properly, poor form 😦

[fluid field]

True, bad form

[strange gorge]

Lol the cop writing a ticket?

[vestal raven]

I tried the cop to be the one painting but I'm still learning how to prompt

I'm surprised on how well Flux handles hands

[vale lake]

it do be like that

meanwhile I'm just dealin with the aliens

very lynchian

I'm curious about the post, are you looking for feedback on how AI handles emotionally-sensitive information like giving relationship advice to humans, or was there a specific aspect of the transcription you wanted to highlight? It'd be great to understand the goal here a bit more 🙂

I can't work out how to talk to people.I have credits , but I won't let me make music

[limpid violet]

Hey @simple magnet,

We can pop over to #📚┃suno-school if you want in-depth help, but since there's no "official support" presence on Discord at the moment, the best advice is to follow up with [e-mail] ❤️

[edgy plover]

the goal was to gain personal insights based on a post by some one in an other discord , their exact post was an example post of a dating coach in an image file, with the coment: "never ask an AI about dating." so i needed to stress test the theory and come to my own conclusions

the original poster of that coment is one of the creators of the game OLDtv https://store.steampowered.com/app/643270/OLDTV/ its a free game that has alot to do with hand eye coordination.

@limpid violet By the way i managed to disconect and delete that secondary free account, and link my phone to my original account!
thanks for the help!

suno is still a great app

[limpid violet]

Thanks for elaborating on that! It's remarkable just how quickly AI has become a part of our decision-making -- I know when I first introduced my wife to ChatGPT and other AI tools she was very skeptical -- and while there's certainly still a need for actual human-driven work in those fields, being able to "feel heard" in a sense alleviates SO many of the basic complaints that people had regarding their interactions with healthcare professionals, or experts that you'd consult similarly.

AI-therapy for instance, we found the concept REALLY touchy at first, but came to realize that you still need to "do the work", and consulting experts really helps, but sometimes we just had basic questions that we didn't want to "annoy anyone" or "feel silly" for asking, and being able to throw those questions into a chatbot helped relieve some of those tensions, and we found that it made asking similar types of questions easier in all aspects of life.

I can imagine similarly as long as you're not staking the entire success on the advice of a chatbot, being able to talk back and forth about your goals and wants honestly and openly, without feeling like "you've asked the same question too many times" or fearing that "you're not getting something", there's a lot of different fields that people could be encouraged to gain more confidence in.

[limpid violet]

Awesome, dude! I'm glad you got that sorted out -- the sign-up / sign-in thing spins me for a loop sometimes, I'm glad nothing was tangled up TOO badly that they weren't able to help out -- back to making top-40 hits now 💪

I appreciate you giving me a heads-up when that got taken care of, just out of curiosity it helps to know roughly how long these things take 🙏 💙

[edgy plover]

i think honesty even being most imprtant is secondary to being emotianaly genuine when it comes to human interaction, honesty being key in personal goals and being genuine to ones self. and in human interaction basicly just being yourself even when comunicating with AI.

AI is called Artificial cause it is a human / man made thing dont forget

[limpid violet]

Except for Suno -- it fell to Earth on a meteorite like the symbiotes, and we're just the unwitting hosts.

@limpid violet are you about?

[limpid violet]

Hey man, what's up?

[hasty hound]

just wanted to give you an update on Soundful. It's 10 days since I subscribed to the Business plan and it is money well spent. Although there are limited genres the quality of tracks I am able to create is amazing. Plus there are Artist packs like Kaskade or DJ White Shadow which let you create tracks using their 'DNA' So I am really happy. I am just surprised more people have not heard of it.

[limpid violet]

Awesome, thanks for the detailed feedback on that! It's good to have a better understanding of what the different services cater toward -- while Soundful didn't seem like it fit my creative use cases, I know that you have very technical requirements in regards to midi creation, so I'm glad that it's powered up your production workflow! 😄 💪

[hasty hound]

Indeed it has and it has accessibility built in from the ground up, so using it is a breeze for me

[limpid violet]

And for the record, you're free to message me any time of day or night 😄

Even if I'm not around (which... let's face it), I always appreciate good chat to come back to 🤘

[limpid violet]

I was thinking the other day about how much "visual candy" gets interjected into otherwise "clean and effective" UIs, and even when it's something that the user enjoys, I got to thinking about how many services are actually easier to use with accessibility features than they are to use through the standard UI interactions -- there has to be some services that just have god-tier ease-of-use features that the average person gets left behind without knowing 😛

[hasty hound]

I can't count the number of websites that label Buttons helpfully as "button" rather than the function of the button

[limpid violet]

I can't tell if I'm laughing or making exasperated wheezes of agony through my nose, but there's a definite bodily reaction to hearing this. That's completely ridiculous, yet doesn't surprise me for a second.

[hasty hound]

the hardest part of using Suno for me is the three dot menu with such a big hierarchy of functions, downloading and deleting takes a bit of practice and muscle memory

[limpid violet]

It's an unfortunate reality I suppose that needing to use accessibility features means you probably need to take a crash-course on self-guided tech support for every new service 🫂

I'm glad the Suno community has its helpful corners 🙂

Yeah, the 3 dot menu in itself is weird -- I heard that the button was just nameless for a while.

[hasty hound]

I really want an "empty trash" button, because my Trash needs to be emptied by my partner for me, I just can't select it all and choose Delete Permanently, it's too difficult

[limpid violet]

I think that's been mentioned in the layout suggestions, but I agree that library organization is desperately lacking at the moment.

In the meanwhile, if it's able to assist your partner in the process, they can click a song and ctrl + A to highlight all visible songs to delete the page at once. 🙂

[hasty hound]

yeah we do that, command + A on the Mac

[limpid violet]

Okay cool -- not a perfect solution, but I still come across people who delete each song individually, then delete each track from the trash individually -- those poor souls

[hasty hound]

that sounds like torture

[limpid violet]

I'd be remiss if you were one of those tortured individuals and I didn't share the tidbit. 🙂

[hasty hound]

😅

[limpid violet]

Let's do a song-swap! If there's a song stuck in your head for whatever reason, throw the video into chat 🙂

(preferably a non-Suno song, but ANY song is great, really)

[hasty hound]

here you go https://youtu.be/g4ouPGGLI6Q?si=1JIsR09b8eWKTbx4

the studio version is better but amazing track

[limpid violet]

Oh my lord -- amazing track! I stumbled across this years and years ago just because I thought the name was funny, but this song has a dangerous amount of momentum 😂

[hasty hound]

I have the vinyl of the original, one of my favourite records

[limpid violet]

Okay, for my musical volley, my absolute musical crush, Delicate Steve
https://youtu.be/5umbgJKtWCU

I used to make technically-leaning punk/ska, then I heard Delicate Steve and just haven't stopped smiling since.

A vocalist hearing a guitarist do all the heavy lifting -- an artistic coat-rack for a lot of my preconceived notions about what music was.

[hasty hound]

this track feels like it wants to go longer, I like it though

[limpid violet]

That's the problem I find with his songs, each one "sounds like another", as an addict would phrase it.

"Well, that clearly wasn't long enough. Maybe I'll just play through a couple more that fit the same vibe"

Sooner or later you're writing a similar album 🤣

[hasty hound]

Did I tell you I subscribed to a year of Bandlab?

[viscid root]

Well i am not gonna eat oatmeal in a while got this fella in my bowl today ._.

[edgy plover]

I think it's just a cookie that makes you think that that's his cookie, I'm sure as an artist he don't own all his cookies tho.. I don't really know how to explain

[edgy plover]

This is cause of cookies

[hasty hound]

can you describe it?

[edgy plover]

Lol no pls

[limpid violet]

I think you might have misunderstood -- I don't mean that the songs literally sound similar to one another, it's an old colloquial phrase to indicate that you'd like to "consume another"

"How was your drink?"
"It tasted like I'll have another"

[viscid root]

it looks like a seedling but meaty and squishy odd part after you crushed lower part of the body it reforms it self and it glued to the lid that it was on

and i think it has a heart due to the black blob in the lower part of its body

[hasty hound]

eww

[limpid violet]

You'd mentioned you signed up for the paid service, I'm excited to hear if the instrument-to-midi ends up being as exciting of a feature as I thought it would be!

[hasty hound]

there's so much to experiment with

[edgy plover]

Ah yes I get you now, sorry for the misunderstanding I'm glad you like cookies then

Or drinks n' songs

🙂

I wish I had raisin cookies now

On the topic of drinks though I had soup and cappuccino for desert now

[half pawn]

i just had a beer while generating songs

[umbral wadi]

I miss beer. 🙄

[half pawn]

luckily i have my own personal mini fridge so everything is cold

like insanely cold like almost to the point of ice forming. fridge is only on setting 3 out of 6 lol

[edgy plover]

i was listening to some popcornkid stuff i dont remember https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=rHnIEqt3mOI&list=OLAK5uy_laHUK1jhp5jnSOdIJWo-1IZVgjfzffR0M

[limpid violet]

As in "it's been a while" or "it can't turn 5 o'clock soon enough"?

[edgy plover]

yeah beer is kinda something you might miss eitherway, i feel lucky i quit

urges though

i went through a beer frenzy when my dad died

one year drinking almost evry day

sux

[umbral wadi]

As in due to health reasons I avoid those wasted carbs.

[edgy plover]

sounds smart, you can't blame the brewery for the yeast eating the carbs though

[umbral wadi]

Let me rephrase that. I'm avoiding the sugar in the alcohol.

[edgy plover]

me too

i avoid yeast too

yeet

though i gotta admit avoiding alcohol all together is probly best

[umbral wadi]

Which is what I've been doing.

But I miss my beers.

Especially now as we're nearing October.

[edgy plover]

out of all alcoholic beverages though i miss beer the most

[umbral wadi]

I would literally look forward to this time of year all year and stock up on the seasonal. Then save a box for American Thanksgiving when it was sold out everywhere.

[edgy plover]

just hate the groggy aftertaste of waking up and needing to wait till 5 o clock with sleep in my eyes

[umbral wadi]

See...that's the thing that should have sent up warning flags for me. I never had a hangover. Not once.

I've been reliably informed if I had I'd definitely notice it.

And I liked high ABV beers too.

So it wasn't that.

[edgy plover]

its not a hangover unless you mean it included a stomochache i had that once from beer

wild newyears

[umbral wadi]

No waking up feeling sick, no sensitivity to light, no crusty dry mouth, headache, etc.

And I'd still have something like eight beers or more that day.

[edgy plover]

you never had a stomoch ache?

[umbral wadi]

Not after drinking.

[edgy plover]

how long after?

[umbral wadi]

Mind you those were picnics with my cousins and we'd be drinking from noonish until nine or ten in the evening.

I'd usually cut off myself about two or three hours before leaving.

Just never had a hangover.

[edgy plover]

i have at least twice, alcohol makes you forget, things, so be careful

[umbral wadi]

Well I don't drink any more.

Like I said, health reasons.

But I do miss it, especially Octoberfest.

[edgy plover]

its like that with things they feel like another

next month is coming soonish , yay

[umbral wadi]

Yeah for those who can enjoy it. Usually Boston Beer releases their Octoberfest early and you can get it in August.

[edgy plover]

like halloween somtimes comes earlier cause of the moon cycles

[limpid violet]

I don't drink, but I love that I thought nothing of reacting with the cheers emoji -- might opt for the hug-react this time 😛

[limpid violet]

I think I just miss the lack of social inhibitions more than anything, but as we all know, sometimes those are there for a reason 😅

[umbral wadi]

I'm a bit odd. I drank beer because I liked the flavor. Of course this meant I mostly avoided the mass produced water with alcohol and as little flavor as possible stuff that so many people think is beer.

I was a Sam Adams guy with a side intrest in Founder's beers. I also enjoyed a lot of the local brewpubs and what they produced.

[molten pecan]

uhm, lol.

[charred warren]

Posting for those who need it:
[Organic production]
[Balanced Levels]
[Big drum package]
[Compressed kick]
[Compressed snare]
[Perfect EQ]
[Clean mix]
[Hard Compression]
[Strong performance]
[Proper pronunciation]
[Dry Reverb]
[Dry mix]
[Good vocal chain]
[Vocal Cuts Through Mix]
[Final Vocal Mix]
[Final Master]

[edgy plover]

thanks i need most of that just not all in the same trax but its a wonderfull mix of effects there

i'm kinda stumped on the organic production though

[charred warren]

yeah seems to improve general quality of tracsk, it appears to build complexity

[edgy plover]

i dont know where to add the organic things mostly

and when i add too much human input my mix breakes down and doesnt mix down

[half pawn]

what do you think of this song art cover?

[umbral wadi]

I wonder where there is space for the title and artist name?

[charred warren]

what do you mean add the organic things?

[edgy plover]

the human inputs and kinda like the non digital accoustic effects

[edgy plover]

it reminds me of the moon and stuff

i bet it would have great vocals if any

i have some irl photos a full moon the most recent bluemoon if im not mistaken two years ago

[charred warren]

oh yeah, that's like painting. "A little thing here", " a little thing there", really on a whim, I don't know how else to describe that process. Kind of like "i'm taking you to the airport", "you know what, let's take the scenic route..." or remembering some odd detail in the middle of a memory about something ordinary. I probably don't have the vocabulary to explain this at all

[edgy plover]

yes i would agree, the mixdown is never the final master is it? i mean i little thing here and a little thing there in the end might go past the boundries of any canvas if you busy painting it ,,; or a ' a journy is best expirienced, then it is rarely forgotten'. and all that remains is its memories in the end 🙂

no filters just regular lensflare

that night was enchanting

light does weird and mesteriouse things the moon is blue behind the clouds in that photo

im not sure but i believe another term for blue moon is wolves moon

actualy officialy (i just looked it up) its the january moon the 'wolves moon' but here read this :

MANCINI: Being that they're not true nocturnal animals, their eyesight isn't super great at night. It's a little bit better than ours, but it's not super high-powered night vision, so they're more likely to actually succeed at hunting under the light of the full moon when it's bright out. And then they might rally the pack together to come to dinner.

🐺

and it seems we ad a blue moon this year too

Aug. 19/20, 2024.

wow what a mind blow

its only the 5th right now

i hope people take lots of pictures!😉
📸

[vale lake]

hahaha

meanwhile I've had a p big SDXL day

and a ton of work

about to go sleep

[viscid root]

best one

[vale lake]

I think in like, 2 more Loras I'll have brought sdxl to something else

this is cfg of 22

without quality loss that's immediately obvious

the eyes you can see have a lump, which means I have something in my dataset

or I may just need to make it bigger

[edgy plover]

I don't see the lump in the eyes, looks fine to me,!😀

[vale lake]

left eye

[fluid field]

One of my favorites recently

[vale lake]

shape is baaaad

now we're at cfg 30m but she a five head

[edgy plover]

Aha it's a lighting artifact Yolkhead

[vale lake]

a couple other abberations, minor, but basically skin flaws

[vale lake]

Yea, but its undesireable

[edgy plover]

True

[vale lake]

from the model, to my knowledge people percieve it to be innacurate

so effectively it is

[strange gorge]

big head, big life

[vale lake]

this one's secret

[edgy plover]

Try a zoom in and manual brush or stamp or spray fix

[vale lake]

is I'm using my LoRas

but I'm doing it with a refiner

[strange gorge]

I'm still deep into Flux and ~fluxing~ around

It's still wild as all wild heck

[vale lake]

and I'm combining two very very different models with very very different datasets

[vale lake]

oh yea, I messed with it more today

but its a little too censored atm for my likes. After more time, it reminds me a lot of DALLE honestly, which isnt' a bad thing

[strange gorge]

People have been using Flux as a refiner

[edgy plover]

Hehe

[strange gorge]

An figuring out how to negative prompt

Flux beats Midjourney at prompt adherence I've decided

[vale lake]

gimme a prompt

I wanna test out my new tor

toy

with flux prompts

[strange gorge]

circa 1988 catalog advertisement for the portable video game console "Soviet MAN"
The photo of the console takes up most of the page, with an attractive Russian woman holding it while smiling. There is a smaller inset picture of the console itself.
The text below reads:
"Soviet MAN! Those capitalist pig dogs don't know game from a donkey!"
There is no more text.

The "Soviet Man" logo is in the lower right.

That the prompt for that Soviet Man image

Directly

[edgy plover]

🙂 tough prompt

Good one though

KakerMix what does the actual console look like?

I imagine a russian gameboycolor knockoff

[vale lake]

spinning it up now

[viscid root]

Time to make some Robot images on ideogram

[snow pivot]

If any of you had to guess, what kind of genres do you think I should prompt for this style of music? I'm planning on making a song for this series and I want it to somewhat match its more distinct music style? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9tMowVO8ESw
From what I understand, electro, pop(?), darkwave, synth so far. If anyone has ideas, would appreciate it.

[snow pivot]

What are you trying to go for? Something for a metal cover?

[vale lake]

omfg

[viscid root]

no idea just trying to see how advanced promps ideogram can take

[vale lake]

its concept of a sovietman is hilarious

[strange gorge]

I mean I should be able to take that image from the ad, crop it, and blow it up, img2img it

[viscid root]

Tintin concept art

[strange gorge]

Give me a bit to get to my computer and I'll show you what Soviet MAN looks like

[strange gorge]

Is this the exact same prompt? It rules

[vale lake]

yes!

there are a lot more, but they involve swimsuit babes

apparently

[strange gorge]

Your own custom SDXL stuff too? Owns

[vale lake]

yup! just the loras and the new workflow

[strange gorge]

Swimsuit babes? Terrible how awful
Link 2 the model pls

[vale lake]

it nails hands though

[strange gorge]

😏

[snow pivot]

That's a finetuned XL model? Noice

[vale lake]

its as i suspected in any case, everything has to do with overfitting

[vale lake]

not even

[edgy plover]

Try Google translate the russian an rework the original prompt with it

[vale lake]

most of the time I use base sdxl

with a lora I make

[viscid root]

Trippy Image

[vale lake]

that improves broad generalization]

[strange gorge]

Upload it to civit, call it "SDFluxL" get mad ups

[vale lake]

now I'm using dirty dirty models

bc they make amazing non-dirty output

when combined with certain other models

[strange gorge]

Ever mess with the Pony models? Really just porn models but the side effect is they are really good with prompt adherence. I saw it mentioned when people were signing praises about Flux and someone said "yeah but where are the nipples" and started arguing about why Pony was better

[edgy plover]

Try with real Cyrillic let's though

[strange gorge]

lmao the logo in the upper right

[vale lake]

yea, pony is in everything

[viscid root]

ooh i like this one

[vale lake]

the thing is, I really have come to realize nobody has any idea what they're talking about with ML models

[strange gorge]

Nope

[vale lake]

the Pony guy included. He's a decent baker

[strange gorge]

Black boxes, the lot of them

[vale lake]

but like, actually we don't know that

he had a good dataset

[vale lake]

sort of. I have a p good track record and its based on a rigorous, replicable, and falsifiable process

so I feel p confifent that one day, someone will rip me off and make a lot of money with my ideas

as the good lord intended

[strange gorge]

Sure but that just makes you more sure of the roll of the dice

[vale lake]

oh def

but also, its not exactly that

[strange gorge]

And that's as good as we need

[vale lake]

like, I can make models always get hands right

and things like that

like, all those images are on cfg 20-30

when I turn it down its waaaaay more pleasant, but slightly less adherent

[viscid root]

uuuh i got a really dark image from ideogram ._.

aint no way i am posting that one it´s one guy standing underneath a light bolb and above him people hanging in ropes

[edgy plover]

@vale lake Yolkhead could you please, rework the original prompt with russian original Cyrillic letters and a Gameboy colour console and it's an add she is holding with a smile, the add takes most of the frame

[vale lake]

I'll try, but text is one things I have removed as much as possible, it mostly just dows non-sense text. But I will try for cyrillic

[edgy plover]

Use Google translate for the text

[charred warren]

spooky holiday vaporwave?

[snow pivot]

Oo that's a great idea, thank you ❤️‍🔥

[vale lake]

a bit more cash

[charred warren]

are we playing thot or not?

[vale lake]

omfg, the new one

I reworked the prompt

and wow

[edgy plover]

We are playing Ai or irl

[charred warren]

so Soviet!

[vale lake]

this isn't great fidelity yet, but the design is there

[strange gorge]

Soviet by way of Command and Conquer Red Alert

[edgy plover]

Yup

[vale lake]

ooh, yea, i see it

[charred warren]

for historical accuracy

Why did the cold war end? Well Communism ran out of pixels

[edgy plover]

That's the kinda smile that sells game consoles

[vale lake]

this is very japanese-sovietwave

like, alternate reality where soviet ads

went the way of japanese ones

[charred warren]

Extreme handheld tanning bed

never be Vitamin D deficient again!

[vale lake]

ok, one of them literally randokmly churned out two rednecks spanking one another sooooooooo

oh you soviets

[charred warren]

Discipline Strengthens Community!

[edgy plover]

What about tanned and baked to perfection try this sunscreen lotion and our new model 50999 lux

[strange gorge]

lol @ this

It outputs like a camera flash

A slow hum

[charred warren]

All the Rads, none of the wait!

[strange gorge]

Builds intensity

[edgy plover]

And don't forget its lycra friendly tanning with our lotion

Never another wasted wetsuit lol

[strange gorge]

lmao it worked

[edgy plover]

Great

Buety

[strange gorge]

Cropped the tiny picture, blew it up to 1024x1024

Still a bit blury but llo, lmao

[edgy plover]

Flux and mid journey apparantly

[strange gorge]

Look at this, this freakin' owns

[edgy plover]

Checkout midjourney

[strange gorge]

Flux, which is a hot new generative image thing that came out like 3-4~ days ago

Yolkhead is a weirdo with strange SDXL things idk

[edgy plover]

It's an expensive user friendly image ai tool

[strange gorge]

I ain't no image-ologist

[strange gorge]

Think they are related?

[vale lake]

ok, that man eats people

you can just tell

[strange gorge]

Midjourney has their woman, Yolkhead has their

uh

non-binary?

person

[vale lake]

cannibal

he identifies as a cannibal

[edgy plover]

That man îS Soviet MAN

[vale lake]

you can call him whatever you want

as long as you call him

bc he's f---ing hungry

[strange gorge]

Oh Flux

[strange gorge]

I have to spin up whatever upscaler people are using

[vale lake]

ads these days

they don't make em like used to

[edgy plover]

Even better try for the command and conqour lady with the add

Tanja?

She's the commando lady

[strange gorge]

*Tanya I think

Phonetically that's how they pronounce it

[charred warren]

Facebag, the purse only a psycho would steal!

[strange gorge]

I keep seeing that pipe in the background as the other one of her arms

[edgy plover]

Ah yeah Tanya but there's no name reference in the game outro as far as I remember only voice actor list perhaps im wrong

Since she played in both campains

[strange gorge]

If you pay more money like some idiot (it me) then you can set them to private

Between SDXL and Flux though I am starting to wonder if I am going to renew Midjourney next year

Midjourney straight up is not as good as Flux, and I am running Flux on my own dang computer

[edgy plover]

Or just pay and make your own private discord for your bot

[strange gorge]

Stable Diffusion is wide open so between the two you can do all sorts of stuff

[strange gorge]

I've grown to really like their website

[vale lake]

I use fooocus

its so much faster

and easier

like, the style tags are just cheats

[strange gorge]

Comfy UI isn't bad, truly. I was like you, angry at the world, mad at a terrible so-called UI, wanted a large Irish woman to hold me tight

[edgy plover]

When midjourney was in early phase. The bot was free with limited gens

[strange gorge]

Then I faced to the bloodshed and dove into ComfyUI

[edgy plover]

Use a private discord then

[strange gorge]

ComfyUI is great because all the images I am posting are the workflows

You can drag em' into ComfyUI and bam: Exactly what i used to make the thing

[edgy plover]

And invite midjourney there

[strange gorge]

I think Auto1111 is or does already support Flux, but the way I am using it is I am about completely maxed out on hardware use. My 4090 is full of VRAM eating computer-whatsits, my system ram is full

[vale lake]

even if you make private images, it isn't private from midjourney in any case

[strange gorge]

ComfyUI is very lean

[charred warren]

damn that's taking the metadata to the next level

[strange gorge]

Yeah this is true, but if you don't make things public and don't draw attention to it I really don't think they care

[vale lake]

so yea, I recommend sdxl personally, and also btw

Forge appears to be active again

[strange gorge]

Security through obscurity

[vale lake]

lllyasviel

has been back

[edgy plover]

If u use ai it uses u

[strange gorge]

I did see that yeah, use Forge @feral latch

[vale lake]

extra hand

[strange gorge]

Forge is Auto1111 but not shit

Exactly the same

[vale lake]

but I'm impatient

[strange gorge]

https://github.com/lllyasviel/stable-diffusion-webui-forge

Same UI

[vale lake]

yea, forge is better

also lllyasviel

[strange gorge]

more efficient as well

[vale lake]

yea, way more

its why I use fooocus

[strange gorge]

and you can make all the large woman doing large women things you want

[vale lake]

same engine

it runs soooo much fasyer

than a1111

[strange gorge]

and the only judgement is yourself the moment after

[edgy plover]

Privacy isn't a privalage it's a right

[strange gorge]

My 4090 would never spy on me, surely

😏

Actually lets see what Flux does with a Large Irish Woman

[edgy plover]

I spy a 4090 sweetheart

[strange gorge]

play video game -> play VR video game -> generative AI

[edgy plover]

Imo opinion the best generative ai for wilderness was elder Scrolls arena not minecraft

Dead seriouse

[vale lake]

ok, and with that, I'm off to bed

[edgy plover]

Cool

[vale lake]

all of these end up seeming like they're going to eat me

[strange gorge]

Wait before you go you link this lora yet

@vale lake

[vale lake]

u sure?

[strange gorge]

I have been staring into the void of the internet since 1999

[edgy plover]

https://forums.uesp.net/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=40351 it is totaly random and the wilderness is endless but it never changes once it has been generated once so its the most adaptive procedural generation you can imagine

[vale lake]

this lady has been my test subject for a while now

i love her kitchen

[vale lake]

I know, I'm just messing

https://civitai.com/models/347097/semantic-shift

[strange gorge]

That guy does the third eye thing ALL wrong

[vale lake]

ok, so I recommend the following weird AF setup for funsies

[edgy plover]

people never realy played arena if they tried to playtest it

[vale lake]

basically, the anime models excel at broadly getting the elements

OH, and you want clip at 1

lustify doesn't work at clip 1 UNLESS its being used in the refiner here, and then it magically does

and when used with the negative LORA at negative 2

[strange gorge]

@feral latch
Not NSFW but slightly crass of a photo

"photo"

[vale lake]

its magic

[edgy plover]

arena is the whole world of the elderscrolls dont forget thats how big it is, if you stay looking in the same place all the time its as if nothing ever changed except the people in it

[vale lake]

I have no idea why

well, I have an idea

but I need to test it more

I think it amounts to the same reason why the lora itself works

namely, switching between models with wildly different datasets will help to get you into places and positions in the latent the finisher isn't overfit on

anyway, I'm exhauseted

night

[edgy plover]

https://en.uesp.net/wiki/Arena:Maps

[strange gorge]

night!

[edgy plover]

i remember how fun it was to explore the wilderness irl and how wild and scary that is all you think about is will i make it home?

thats why arena is still my all time ever rpg game

it captures real life things and puts them into perspective in a game

mostly the character you play and how you may be good and bad or change from good to bad , but remember even irl bad is never good

[fluid field]

Woah, when I started back in May, I did not expect to get as popular like I am now, so thank you everyone for your kindness and support

[snow pivot]

This is the vibe I ended up going with, this isn't the final song i'm making

[limpid violet]

I keep forgetting to look into Forge -- is it worth using if I'm familiar enough with Comfy?

[strange gorge]

Not really? ComfyUI is clearly the end point for this sort of thing. Unless there is some sort of plug-in that only works with Auto1111 (which is also the plug-ins you'd use for Forge), no.

[limpid violet]

Okay, I wasn't sure if Comfy was REALLY such an optimization in terms of back-end efficiency, or if it was just the freedom of the UI -- wasn't sure what Forge excelled in, and wanted to make sure I wasn't sleeping on the next Flux-level advancement because I was familiar with my SD-ui

[strange gorge]

Forge is just the ComfyUI backend with an Auto1111 UI bolted to it

[limpid violet]

I spent just enough time familiarizing myself with the new tools at the time, and hadn't really looked into any advancements in the meanwhile -- pretty lucky that I happened to see you mention Flux the other day or I might have not even paid attention.

I haven't been around as much today, not sure if you saw the flux.merge between dev and schnell I shared earlier -- I'd be curious if it was as neat as advertised

[strange gorge]

What is the purpose of the merge? As far as I know dev is the big model?

It shows in the images the example qualities, and states that you get the quality of dev with the 10x optimization speed of schnell

[strange gorge]

Hmm

Mayhaps I shall check it out then

[limpid violet]

A machine learning engineer who works for HuggingFace posted about it this morning, so I figured it was going to be neat to check out, but I don't have a 4090 (yet)

No pressure either way, but I'd be curious to hear any feedback if it's a good merge 🍻

Stable diffusion 3?

[fluid field]

I love this style I’m getting

[native wind]

@hasty hound Could you elaborate?
Only tested Udio briefly and mainly using Suno.

[hasty hound]

ok here's my take on Udio.

• Short Generations
• Unable to properly include introductions to songs
• Unable to adequately use proper musical methods to end a song
• Too easily produces copyright ridden music
• Changes tempo within a track without any reason
• Doesn't do bridges, pauses, transitions or interludes

[unreal flicker]

are these for Suno?

[native wind]

Thank you, never had much luck with Udio the tiny bit I've used it

[charred warren]

yes

[unreal flicker]

ty

[charred warren]

drop it at the start of your lyrics

[hasty hound]

I subscribe to and pay for Suno Premier, Soundful Business and Aiva Pro, these are the only three good music AIs

[limpid violet]

@vale lake legit, I wanna thank you for sharing so much of your art here, it's really kicked me back into a visually artistic phase 🙂

[vale lake]

yay!

yea, doing visual art is so fun

And like, it's frankly really pushed the cutting edge, people don't like that idea but the quality of art has risen magnitudes, and artistic "eras" now last like a month

which some people would scoff at, but reflects a much more dynamic and complex art scene imo

[limpid violet]

that being said, I finished a rough pass of a new song, and there's only like 3 people that I feel are weird enough to be able to appreciate it -- I'll dm you the latest mixdown if you have a spare 2m20s today 🙂

[vale lake]

yea, absolutely 💯

1.5 works fine imo

I've thought about making a lora for it to see how much I can eke out of it

[limpid violet]

I 100% agree -- to play devil's advocate, I can empathize with the reactionary side because lowering the educational bar of entry to ANYTHING usually means that the existing "Checks and Balances" that "insiders" were familiar with to maintain status quo get thrown out the window as the equilibrium shifts to a whole different power-dynamic. Unfortunately, it's WAY too easy for people without the same types of "moral scruples" to no perform at an equal playing field and muscle out people who genuinely put thought and care into the content they release.

That being said, it's ridiculous to throw out the baby with the bathwater when panicking over the results of arguably one of the most important disrupt-movements in history, "lazy people will use tools lazily", but the exponentially optimized workflow now means that I'm able to draw inspiration from ANYTHING and use it to create something I'll work on for weeks and never show anyone.

[limpid violet]

Sent a friend request because your DMs are restricted 🙏

[placid minnow]

Has anyone else ever only gotten 1500 credits instead of the 2500 credits at the monthly renewal? I sent an email to billing but no reply, is there any mods here who would care to pass this along? I don't want to use my account until they figure out what happened. Thanks.

[silver solar]

hallo

[vestal raven]

SD3 makes almost the same unholy aberrations when you ask for a woman laying on grass; but in SD 1.5 happens because the model was not good enough, but in SD3 happens because they poisoned (censored) the model so hard that doesn't understand the human body anymore.

That's why I switched to FLUX

[slim moss]

@fast rivet @late crown - not sure if you can assist. I have a prepaid annual Pro subscription via iOS but my new month came around on the 3rd, and now Suno is treating my account like I don't have a subscription / I'm on a free membership even though the iOS app shows I'm subscribed.

I've emailed support and billing already and have heard no response. Is there any other recourse here?

Sorry if this is something that is not in your wheelhouse - I'm hoping you can point me in the right direction.

[velvet echo]

huh

[fluid field]

Try reuploading it, that’s happened to me once

[abstract coral]

i was about to ask the same thing

(already tried several times)

[velvet echo]

[fluid field]

Interesting, could be a backend issue

[abstract coral]

I finna guess the servers are down

[fluid field]

Or possibly the site is having issues

[velvet echo]

fvck

[abstract coral]

yup

at least there's an awnser to that

[solid trench]

I misread your name as princess of chilli for a moment lol. The name sounds familiar though

[fast rivet]

the only chance is the in house support of suno. we here have no access to billing or account infos. If it takes too long just mail again and remind tehm that you cant use it. (btw are you logged into the right account)

[slim moss]

Thanks Tree. I only have one account so yes.

I'm not usually a complainer - I've worked in support before and I know how frustrating it can be. But also ... I'm dead in the water here.

They shouldn't enable buying subscriptions through the app if it isn't debugged imo.

I'm tempted to get a refund from apple and buy from the website but I'm 99% sure that the two things are talking nicely and if I cancel from apple, the site will still think i have a subscription.

[rich moat]

@limpid violet the process of submitting a release on BandLab was painless and simple

for anyone releasing lots of songs on streaming platforms this software makes it simple to keep track of all your work -> https://www.reprtoir.com

I am not sure it will help, but I pinged the community support of Suno internal. 🤞

Thank you very much Daizy - I appreciate it 💗

[limpid violet]

#📚┃suno-school message you weren't able to cancel your account from the Apple-side of things?

[slim moss]

I was going to but tbh I'm concerned I do that and I still can't subscribe directly from the website because it doesn't seem like the app and the site are communicating. I'm concerned it will make it messier

[fluid field]

I can envision the song...

Well, It's possible you have other type of song in mind

Use styles for your prompt. adding "by Greg Rutkowski" at the end of your prompt works magic

[vestal raven]

To whoever that says "AI art should be banned" I have a question for you...

The Suno devs misheard that question as "AI should start a band" and now look what we have 🙂

1.5 is still super good

Just....low res by default and I hate it now for that

[vestal raven]

There are plenty solutions for rescaling, but yes 512x512 is not great

[strange gorge]

There are yeah but with Midjourney and SDXL and now Flux, why?

Unless super porn I suppose

I know there are lots of people who like 1.5 for that

Also it's easier to run

And I suppose there is something to be said about the aesthetics that 1.5 can do, as well as why people would use older versions of Midjourney

As the tech marches on they are going to lose their 'feel'

[vestal raven]

Don underestimate p..n, Betamax video format died because p..n industry opted for VHS

[strange gorge]

Nah

That's a thing people say but not true

[fluid field]

im trying comyui again and having trouble connecting nodes

[strange gorge]

Beta dies because the tapes were expensive and didn't hold as much data

Beta form factor didn't die, went on in the pro realm for quite a while

VHS was simply a better value

[vestal raven]

still with the problems? Let me open comfy and I'll check

[strange gorge]

I solve this by just using other people's workflows

[vestal raven]

@strange gorge yeah, I know the story of vhs and betamax, the p..n industry only pput the last nail in the coffin

@fluid field Just tried and It works by clicking and dragging from the tiny circles

[fluid field]

i tried that, but nothing connected

[vestal raven]

Keep in mind not all the nodes and points can be connected

[fluid field]

i'll dm ya

dont want to clutter here

Looks SDXL from my eyes unless it's an upscale

[vestal raven]

Yes, that is more greg rutkowski

Fantasy illustrator style, things look epic with his style. And most men end turned into sexy women

[limpid violet]

Did you know that every image made in comfyUI contains the metadata for the workflow? Just drag the image into your comfyUI setup and it’ll show you the exact seed and everything to remake the photo :/

[strange gorge]

Unless whatever you upload it to strips out the metadata

[limpid violet]

Get out of here with your helpful caveats, I’m oversimplifying for demonstrative purposes

Also yeah, I get really upset when sites mess with the metadata.

Jk love you

[fluid field]

it's fixed, the nodes were hidden, and the model that came with comyui isnt getting recognized, so im downloading a model

[sterile lintel]

@late crown I wonder if you could assist me as well? I am having similar issues as some other users here. My monthly renewal never occurred and I have subbed for 1yr. It is currently stuck on 70 credit since end of July. I have emailed both support and billing, unfortunately, I either don't get any response, or just receive a generic response one that points me to a FAQ link which does not address my issue. Your assistance would be hugely appreciated. 🙏

[late crown]

I myself cannot help you. I wish I could.. but I will send a ping internal. Hopefully they will pick it up soon!

I was like "whoa, this si all you need"

you can just inpaint anything

[strange gorge]

Now I just use Photoshop as I know

With my drawing tablet, it's a super power

[runic depot]

you know...

people say "there's no barrier, learn to make art" but let's be real I'm 34 years old, I'm not going to learn art, and I'd wager to say there's no amount of time or dedication that would put me even at the level that AI can produce let alone actual art

Some people who are into AI art like feeling like they created something, some think they deserve money for doing nothing, some really do think that the result is beautiful art, but I imagine that the great majority just want to be Ideas Guy

all kids dream of being a game developer, movie director, novelist, or whatever who gets the credit for being a genius while other people do the actual work

nobody dreams of being a QA tester or a starving artist

As for me, there's no doubt in my mind that something about the circumstances of my birth make me unable to put lines on a page. I have my middle school sketchbooks. I remember it all quite clearly.

[pale ferry]

If you're still having trouble, please DM me!

[pale ferry]

Shoot me a DM!

[pale ferry]

If you haven't heard back from support yet, DM me!

[limpid violet]

Yo @pale ferry ❤️

[pale ferry]

hey @limpid violet !

for, well, anybody! I know I'm infrequent on here- making some good progress on the internal side though! If ya'll have questions the mods are stumped on, especially for product/billing, just shoot me a message. I'll get to it!

[slim moss]

thank you very much! the issue was resolved yesterday afternoon ... but i'm not sure support actually did anything because this morning I received an email saying that they have no account for me under my primary email address (that they emailed me). So to be clear ... I hae NO IDEA exatly who or how my issue was resolved - my guess is billing took care of it.

I think an issue I might be facing is that my Suno account is connected both to my Discord (one email address) and to my Apple Id (a separate email address).

I used my Apple to buy the subscription but originally set up Suno under my Discord.

Now I'm sitting here going ... how the heck do I make my Apple identity the primary identity for Suno if that's an issue in some way? I emailed them that question but haven't heard back.

[pale ferry]

got it. yeah, the mutliple account things is generally pretty confusing to sort through. keep in mind though, small support staff with thousands of new inquiries a week. it can take a couple of days to get a reply, which is what makes Discord so useful! p2p support is amazing here. still shoot me a DM so I can get some details and try to steer you in the right direction

[limpid violet]

Not all work is done in the sunlight, but we know you've been working hard and ramping things up in the background 🙏

Recently when helping users, I'm trying to drive home the fact that reaching out to support should be the first step because I know there's likely more structured instructions for how to handle issues, instead of everyone's different opinions here.

Always exciting to see a purple name typing in chat -- don't be a stranger!

[hasty hound]

I second those remarks 🙂

[pale ferry]

i'll definitely be around, but i tend to consider myself a discord lurker at best. ya'll type a lot of words 😅

[slim moss]

i completely understand and appreciate the sheer volume they must be under. And I'm really not known as a complainer type ... the only thing here was i was bummed to not being able to make songs.

I wonder though ... how would I flip it so my apple account is my primary so there is no confusion in the future? I don't see a mechanism to do so.

[slim moss]

oh derp - you said to dm you - will do - work meeting right now - but will soon after - thanks Mike!
