Instrumental meaning
When prompting for an instrumental, be clear that the track should avoid sung lyrics and focus on genre, mood, tempo feel, instruments, and use case. In Musing.ai, instrumental direction is most useful when the final track needs to sit behind speech, visuals, or a separate vocal idea.
