Editing the MIDI notes of Suno's AI-generated song (in MP3 format) is incredibly hard. The notes are quite weird, and I'm starting to feel discouraged about making music.

Should I give up or what? I could really use some help. ☹️

What exactly are you trying to do?

Trying to create my own songs.

You're letting AI do it though?

Ditch that and make your own songs. You let AI create your melody, robbing you of one of the many joys of making music, and arguably the whole point - expressing yourself. You're just cleaning up the mess it spit out.

Making music isn't easy. It's a skill that takes time to develop, often years. Expect to be bad at it for a while, but know that you will improve over time. It's extremely rewarding. With experience you may be able to make this turd shine, but more likely you won't need to because you can do better with your own skill starting from scratch.

I'll ask again, what are you trying to do? Do you want to make your own beats to rap on, or maybe make a soundtrack for an indie game? Think about that and analyze the music that inspires you, learn from it, emulate it, pick up on their techniques. If you can come back with specific questions about music production then people will be happy to help you. This post is like complaining that the easy way out isn't as easy as you expected.

Well, maybe I'm just trying to create my own songs, song albums, singles, and stuff. That's all I have to say. 🤷‍♂️ I'm sorry.

AI media is not something you created.
