Suno Speech on Flixly: Expressive AI Voice-Overs With Optional Music

TL;DR

Suno Speech is now on Flixly's Text to Speech page. In My script mode it performs your text, up to 5,000 characters, using your tone direction, a female or male voice, a variety level and optional background music. In Write it for me mode it writes the script from a one-line scene. Every request returns two takes as 48 kHz stereo MP3, and Flixly shows the price first.

Suno Speech, Suno's model that performs spoken audio and can score it with original background music in the same track, is now on Flixly's Text to Speech page. Paste your own script, or describe a scene in one line and let Suno write the words for you. Then set the tone, pick a female or male voice, and turn the music on or off. Every request gives you two takes to choose from. All the examples below are real first results made on Flixly, and each one lists its settings and how long it took.

What is Suno Speech?

Suno introduced Speech on October 1, 2026, and calls it the first audio model that generates voice and music together as one track. A classic text-to-speech engine reads your words in a fixed preset voice. Suno Speech instead performs them: it shapes the pace, the emotion and the pauses from a description you write, and it can compose a soundtrack that fits under the voice. Suno pitches it for meditations, poems, pep talks, bedtime stories and voice notes with a score. On Flixly it also covers voice-overs for videos, ads and podcast intros.

Suno labels Speech a beta. It warns that accents can drift (a British voice can wander toward Australian) and that dramatic pauses can come out very dramatic. That is why every request on Flixly returns two takes.

On Flixly, Suno Speech has two modes:

Mode What you type What Suno does
My script The words to be spoken, up to 5,000 characters Performs your script with the tone, voice, variety and music you set
Write it for me A one-line scene, up to 3,000 characters Writes a script for the scene, then chooses the voice, delivery and music itself

What can you control on Flixly?

Setting Options Mode
Tone direction Free text, up to 1,000 characters: delivery, pace, emotion, accent, setting and the kind of music My script
Voice Auto, Female or Male My script
Variety Exact style, Balanced, Distinct, Bold or Unreasonably varied: how far the two takes may stray from your tone direction My script
Background music On (an original score under the voice) or off (clean voice) My script
Output Two takes per request, each an MP3 at 48 kHz stereo Both

Flixly shows the price under the Generate button before you start, and the price is the same whichever mode you use.

Real examples

Each example below is a real Suno Speech request made on Flixly, and each is the first result for that text. Times are measured from clicking Generate to the finished takes. Every request returned two takes; we show the first one unless we say otherwise. The audio is unedited. Each clip plays as a short video with a still image of its own waveform, because that is how audio plays on this blog.

Write it for me: a 20-second bakery ad

The scene was a single line: "A 20-second radio ad for a neighborhood bakery's new cinnamon rolls". It took 22 seconds.

Suno named the shop Maple Street Bakery and wrote a four-sentence script. It opens with "Start your morning at Maple Street Bakery" and ends on a tagline, "a little sweetness for your day". For the delivery, it chose a warm, friendly announcer over soft piano and brushed percussion. We asked for 20 seconds, and both takes ran exactly 20.0 seconds.

Write it for me: a one-minute sleep meditation

The scene: "A calm one-minute guided breathing meditation to help someone fall asleep". It took 24 seconds.

Suno titled it Settle In and wrote a breathing exercise in five short paragraphs ("Breathe in gently through your nose, slow and easy..."). Its style notes for both takes describe a warm, soothing voice, slow and close, over sparse piano. Again it kept to the length we asked for: 60.0 and 59.9 seconds.

My script, with and without background music

To show what the music switch does, we gave the same 196-character podcast intro to two requests. The script opens: "Good morning, and welcome to Harbor Lights. The tide is out, the bakery on Pier Street just opened its doors..."

The first request used the tone direction "Warm, friendly female podcast host, relaxed morning pace, slight smile", with Voice Female, Variety Distinct and Background music on. It took 22 seconds.

The second used "Deep, steady male documentary narrator, calm and unhurried", with Voice Male, Variety Exact style and Background music off. It took 27 seconds.

You can see the difference in the files themselves. With music on, the score fills every pause, and there is no stretch of silence anywhere in either take. With music off, the takes carry six or seven clear silences, the gaps between sentences. That clean version is the one to choose when you want to add your own music or mix the voice under a video. At Exact style, Suno's style notes for both takes repeat our tone direction word for word.

My script: a bedtime story

A 369-character story about a lighthouse called Lumi, with the tone direction "Soft, gentle storyteller reading a bedtime story to a child, slow and warm, with a quiet music box and strings underneath". Voice Female, Variety Balanced, Background music on. It took 25 seconds.

At a bedtime pace, the short story became 53.6 seconds in the first take and 65.0 in the second. Suno titled it Lumi's Goodnight Song. Allow for this when you plan around a video: slow, music-backed delivery takes much longer than reading the same words aloud.

My script: a pep talk, and what Variety does

A locker-room speech, with the tone direction "Fired-up coach giving a locker-room pep talk before a big game, starting low and building to a shout, with cinematic drums rising underneath". Voice Male, Variety Distinct, Background music on. It took 22 seconds, and here are both takes.

Variety controls how far Suno may stray from your tone direction, and the two takes show it. Suno's notes for take 1 describe a deep, steady, clipped delivery. Take 2 "starts low and controlled, builds to a full-throated shout", which is what we asked for. At Exact style the two takes stay close to each other; the higher you set Variety, the more the second take is a genuinely different reading. That is useful when you are still deciding how a line should sound.

How to make a voice-over with Suno Speech on Flixly

  1. Open Text to Speech and choose Suno Speech as the model.
  2. Pick a mode. Choose My script to paste the exact words, or Write it for me to describe the scene in a line.
  3. In My script mode, set the Tone direction, then the Voice, the Variety and Background music.
  4. Check the price under the button, then click Generate. Results usually arrive in under half a minute.
  5. Play both takes and download the one you like. Each take has its own Download button.

How to get the best results

  • Write the tone like a casting note. Name the speaker, the pace, the feeling and the setting, and the music if you want some: "calm documentary narrator, unhurried, soft piano underneath".
  • Turn the music off for videos you will score yourself. With music on, the score fills every pause, so you cannot remove it later.
  • Use Exact style for consistency and higher Variety to explore. Exact style keeps both takes close to your direction. Distinct and above give you two genuinely different readings.
  • Plan for slower delivery. Calm or dramatic tones with music run long: our 369-character bedtime story came out at about a minute.
  • Ask for a length in Write it for me. "A 20-second ad" and "a one-minute meditation" both came back at exactly that length.
  • Listen for beta quirks. Suno warns that accents can drift and dramatic pauses can run long, so check both takes before you publish.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Suno Speech?▾

Suno Speech is Suno's speech model, which Suno introduced on October 1, 2026 as the first audio model that generates voice and music together in one track. Rather than reading text in a fixed preset voice, it performs your words with the pace, emotion and pauses you describe, and it can add an original score underneath. On Flixly it is a model on the Text to Speech page.

Can Suno Speech make a voice-over without background music?▾

Yes. In My script mode on Flixly, turn Background music off and Suno Speech returns a clean voice with natural pauses between sentences, ready to mix under your own music or video. Turn it on and Suno composes a score under the voice that fills the pauses, so choose it only when you want that music in the final mix.

What is the difference between My script and Write it for me in Suno Speech?▾

In My script mode, Suno Speech performs your own text (up to 5,000 characters), and you control the tone direction, voice, variety and background music. In Write it for me mode you describe a scene in a line (up to 3,000 characters), and Suno writes the script and chooses the voice, delivery and music itself. In our tests, Suno also kept to a requested length, such as a 20-second ad.

What does the Variety setting do in Suno Speech?▾

Variety sets how far Suno Speech's two takes may stray from your tone direction, from Exact style through Balanced, Distinct and Bold to Unreasonably varied. At Exact style, both takes stay close to what you wrote. At Distinct and above, the second take can be a genuinely different reading, such as a flat, measured coach in one take and one who builds to a shout in the other.

Why does Suno Speech give me two takes?▾

Every Suno Speech request on Flixly returns two takes of the same text, and both are kept and can be downloaded. Expressive delivery varies from take to take, and Suno labels Speech a beta that can drift in accent or make pauses overly dramatic, so two takes let you pick the reading that fits.

How long can a Suno Speech script be, and how long is the audio?▾

On Flixly, a Suno Speech script can be up to 5,000 characters, a Write it for me scene up to 3,000, and a tone direction up to 1,000. The length of the audio depends on the delivery: slow, music-backed tones run long. A 369-character bedtime story came out at 54 and 65 seconds, while a brisk 196-character podcast intro ran about 20 seconds.
