Free Plan Advantages
Unlike popular tools like Udio that require a paid subscription, Gemini's music generation feature is currently accessible for free.
The 'Prompt Adherence' Issue
The Lyria model can sometimes struggle with highly specific instructions (e.g., generating a rap track even when traditional music was requested). Be sure to provide clearer cultural context or genre details if the initial result is inaccurate.

Step by Step
How to Generate Music from Images Using Google Gemini (Lyria)
- Open Google Gemini in your browser or on your mobile app.
- Type 'create music' in the chat box or navigate to the 'Tools' menu to activate the Lyria (Lia) model.
- Select the 'Image to song' option from the list of available functions.
- Click the 'Upload Image' button (paperclip or plus icon) and select the image you want to use as inspiration for the soundtrack.
- Enter a text prompt in the chat box to provide specific instructions regarding the music style, mood, or the background of the subject in the image.
- Press 'Enter' or click the 'Send' button to start the AI generation process.
- Wait for the audio to finish generating, then click the 'Play' button to listen to the track.
- If the result isn't quite right, enter an additional prompt (e.g., 'Honor his heritage') to remix or regenerate the audio.
