Lyria 3.5 Arrives in Google Flow Music With Improved AI Vocals and Lyrics

Google announced yesterday that it is rolling out Lyria 3.5, the latest version of its AI music generation model, in Flow Music. The update introduces improvements to musical composition, lyric generation, vocal quality, and creative controls designed to give users greater flexibility when creating AI-generated songs.

According to Google, Lyria 3.5 produces more natural and sophisticated melodies, allowing users to generate songs with richer musical structures. The company also said it has improved the model's ability to follow prompts and organize lyrics, resulting in higher-quality songwriting that more closely aligns with user instructions.

Google said vocal generation has also been upgraded, with Lyria 3.5 delivering more expressive performances, greater emotional nuance, and improved pronunciation.

The release also expands the amount of control users have over generated tracks. Google said creators can more easily adjust a song's tempo and duration, while additional controls allow them to modify elements such as vocals, drums, and bass. Track lengths can range from 30 seconds to three minutes.

"Our newest music generation model, Lyria 3.5, delivers significant advancements across musicality, lyrics, and vocal quality, empowering you to craft richer tracks," Google said. "We're rolling it out today in Google Flow Music, where we want to help you create songs you love, with creative control."

Google highlighted four primary improvements in the new model: richer and more complex melodies, higher-quality lyrics with improved prompt adherence and structural awareness, more realistic and emotionally expressive vocals, and expanded creative controls for shaping song output.

Lyria 3.5 builds on the Lyria 3 model introduced earlier this year. Users can continue generating songs by describing a desired style, mood, or theme, while the latest version is designed to deliver higher-quality output with greater control over the finished track.
