Question 1

What can I make with MiniMax Music 2.6?

Accepted Answer

Full songs with vocals, and instrumental beds with none. A pop single for a launch video. A trap beat for a reel. A cinematic cue for a trailer. A lo-fi bed for a stream. A theme for a game level. Describe the music the way you would brief a composer, and the model returns a track with a real arrangement, not a loop.

Question 2

Can I use my own lyrics?

Accepted Answer

Yes, through the API and the vsb CLI, which both take a lyrics field. Write your lyrics, one line per row, and the model sings them. Mark the sections with tags in square brackets, such as [Intro], [Verse], [Pre Chorus], [Chorus], [Bridge], and [Outro], and the song follows that structure. Tags for [Hook], [Drop], [Build Up], [Solo], [Break], [Interlude], and [Inst] work too. Send no lyrics, here on the web or anywhere else, and the model writes the words from your prompt instead.

Question 3

Can it make a track with no vocals?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Turn on Instrumental and describe the style, and the model returns a bed with no singing. Instrumental needs a prompt, and it cannot be combined with lyrics, so clear the lyrics first. Instrumental is the right call for background music under a voiceover, a podcast, or dialogue.

Question 4

How long is a generated track?

Accepted Answer

The model picks the length from the words and the style you give it. Most tracks land between two and four minutes, and one generation can run up to six minutes. More lyrics and more sections make a longer song. Fewer make a shorter one. There is no length field to set, and the price is the same either way.

Question 5

Can I set the key and the tempo?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Name them in the prompt, such as E minor at 90 BPM, and the track lands on them. Version 2.6 follows a stated key and tempo closely, which matters when the music has to sit against an edit or another stem. Naming a tempo also steers the feel, because a style at 70 BPM reads very differently from the same style at 140.

Question 6

Which languages can it sing in?

Accepted Answer

English and Mandarin Chinese are the strongest. Other languages work, with less consistency from one run to the next. Write the lyrics in the language you want sung, and name that language in the prompt as well, so the style description and the words agree.

Question 7

How is MiniMax Music 2.6 different from Eleven Music?

Accepted Answer

Both write and perform full tracks. Eleven Music bills by the length you choose, so you set the duration up front and pay for exactly that. MiniMax Music 2.6 costs one flat price per track and picks the length itself, which makes it the cheaper choice for a long song and the simpler choice when the length does not matter. Reach for Eleven Music when a cue has to fit an edit to the second. Both live in Visual Sandbox, so trying the same brief on each is one click.

Question 8

What format is the output, and where can I import it?

Accepted Answer

Each generation returns an MP3 or a WAV, at your choice, at up to 44.1 kHz. Drop it into Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, Final Cut Pro, CapCut, Ableton Live, Logic Pro, FL Studio, Reaper, GarageBand, Unity, Unreal, or anything else that accepts MP3 or WAV. Pick WAV when the track goes into a mix, and MP3 when it goes straight onto a timeline.

Question 9

How much does a MiniMax Music 2.6 track cost?

Accepted Answer

One flat price per track, whatever its length. A thirty second sting and a four minute song cost the same. Visual Sandbox shows the exact price before you generate, and charges when the track is delivered. There is no subscription and no monthly minimum.

Question 10

Can I use the music commercially?

Accepted Answer

MiniMax does not claim ownership of what you generate, so the tracks are yours to use in videos, ads, podcasts, apps, games, and client work. MiniMax also states that you use generated content at your own risk, so read its terms before a track carries a campaign. A commercial right in an audio file is not a publishing or streaming licence on its own. If you plan to release a track on Spotify, Apple Music, or any service that runs Content ID, read that service's rules on AI music first. Do not ask for a named artist, a named song, or a recognizable voice. Generated music is not exclusive to you, so a similar prompt from somebody else can produce similar music.
