ElevenLabs Prompting Tips
Start with genre + emotion: 'Upbeat synthwave with nostalgic 80s energy' before adding instruments.
Use 'solo' before instruments for isolation: 'solo electric guitar', 'solo piano in C minor'.
Use 'a cappella' for pure vocal tracks: 'a cappella soulful female R&B vocals'.
Add 'instrumental only' explicitly to prevent vocals from appearing in background tracks.
