# ElevenLabs adds section-by-section song editing to ElevenMusic as Suno, Udio, and Google build rival tools

_Tool · published 2026-08-27_

ElevenLabs has launched section-by-section editing for ElevenMusic, giving users granular control over song creation. Tracks can be built from a user's own lyrics, an existing recording, a text prompt, or from scratch — a level of structural control that moves the platform closer to a full production workflow rather than a single-prompt generator.

The update arrives as competition in AI music generation intensifies, with Suno, Udio, and Google all advancing their own rival tools. The race to offer more precise, professional-grade music creation capabilities is accelerating across the sector.
