Data Transfer Guide
Udio doesn't provide direct data export functionality, so migration requires manual transfer. First, download all important tracks from Udio in the highest available quality for reference. Document your successful prompt formulas, genre preferences, and generation parameters in a spreadsheet. For Soundraw import, you cannot directly upload Udio files, but you can use your documented preferences to recreate similar styles. Soundraw's generation works differently—instead of text prompts, you select moods, genres, and instruments, then customize using their visual editor. Save your recreated styles as presets within Soundraw. The key is transferring your creative concepts rather than direct file transfers.
