Google Lyria music generation

Use this skill when a production plan calls for Google Lyria as the music-generation provider. It is for selecting the right Lyria model, writing usable music prompts, deciding when Lyria is inappropriate, and packaging generated music safely for videos, ads, social clips, apps, or internal content.

Facts in this skill were verified against official Google Cloud and Google DeepMind sources on 2026-07-10. Treat model IDs, limits, launch stages, pricing, regions, and policy behavior as volatile; re-check official docs before committing spend, compliance claims, or product launches.

Provider boundary

Documented facts:

• Lyria is Google's music-generation model family. Lyria 3 is documented as synthesizing music from text prompts and outputting audio music plus text lyrics.
• Google Cloud documentation currently appears under Gemini Enterprise Agent Platform and may be reached from Vertex AI / Generative AI on Vertex AI links. Do not assume an older Vertex AI URL means the API contract is unchanged.
• The production-relevant Google Cloud models are:
  • lyria-3-pro-preview: preview model for full-song music generation.
  • lyria-3-clip-preview: preview model for 30-second clips.
  • lyria-002: Lyria 2, documented as generally available and instrumental-only in the API reference.
• Lyria is not a general audio editor, stem separator, music transcription tool, MIDI renderer, or licensed-catalog search engine. Use another tool if the user needs exact beat matching to an existing song, remixing of copyrighted source music, stem extraction, or guaranteed legal clearance.
