You’re right on the money. Google just significantly leveled up its music game with Lyria 3 Pro, which officially rolled out on March 25, 2026. While the standard Lyria 3 model (often called “Lyria 3 Clip”) was mostly a “vibes” tool limited to 30-second snippets, the new Pro version transforms it into a full-scale production tool.
What’s New in Lyria 3 Pro? 3-Minute Track Length: The most significant jump is the maximum duration. You can now generate full-length songs (up to 184 seconds), moving past the “jingle” phase of previous models.
Structural Awareness: Unlike earlier versions that just played a continuous loop, Lyria 3 Pro understands musical composition.
You can specifically prompt for intros, verses, choruses, bridges, and outros.
High-Fidelity Audio: It outputs 48kHz stereo audio, making it clear enough for professional use in video projects or presentations.
Multimodal Inputs: You aren’t limited to text. You can upload an image or video to Gemini, and the Pro model will compose a soundtrack that matches the visual mood and pacing.
How to Access It: The rollout began yesterday and should be fully live within a few days across Google’s ecosystem:Gemini App: Available for Google AI Plus, Pro, and Ultra subscribers.
Creative Tools: Integrated into Google Vids for Workspace customers and the ProducerAI platform.
Developers: Accessible via the Gemini API and Vertex AI (as lyria-3-pro-preview).
It’s clear Google is trying to go toe-to-toe with Suno and Udio now that they can handle full song structures.
