Veena is the AI DAW you can move your actual work into. Every music tool has an "import" feature. Few of them mean the same thing by it, and the difference decides whether the tool is somewhere you can genuinely work.
Import as feeding. The tool accepts a file so it has something to reference. The file goes in; what comes back is the tool's output. You supplied an ingredient.
Import as moving in. The tool accepts your work and turns it into material — editable parts, on a timeline, that you can change directly. You brought a project.
Studio 2.0 does the first well. Veena does the second, and that is the whole comparison.
Suno Studio 2.0: uploads limited to WAV, MP3 and MIDI, on the paid Premier tier, on a desktop at 768px or wider with Chrome recommended. And what you land in is Suno's room — Suno's wavetable synth, Suno's seven effects, no VST or Audio Units plugins of your own ("Suno Studio is not compatible with VST or Audio Units plugins," per its help centre).
Veena: import any track you have and it is separated into real editable stems that land on the timeline as actual audio. Drums on one track, bass on another, vocals on a third — each one editable, because it is the real separated audio and not a regeneration.
A bounced file is a bounced file, whatever made it — a rehearsal recording, a demo, a mixdown from a laptop that died in 2019. Veena turns it back into parts.
And it is worth being clear that this is a second door, not the main one. Veena writes complete songs from an empty project and a sentence, with no audio input required at all. Import is there so nothing you have ever recorded is stranded — not because the workstation needs feeding from somewhere else.
Because of a very specific and very common situation, and it has nothing to do with anyone else's product.
You have a recording you care about that only exists as a stereo file. A rehearsal take where the band actually played it right. A voice memo of the best melody you ever wrote. A demo from a laptop that no longer boots. It is frozen — you can listen to it and do nothing else.
In Veena it becomes a project again:
- Import it. Free Basic tier, browser tab, nothing to install.
- It becomes real stems. The actual audio, split onto separate tracks.
- Build it out. Cut the dragging intro. Rebuild the second verse from the first with a variation. Ask the CoProducer for a bridge — it reads your project's key, rhythm and harmony first, so what it writes fits, and it arrives as editable MIDI.
- Mix it properly. Real stems, a real mixer, and your own VST3 plug-ins on Mac and Windows and Audio Units on Mac through Veena Bridge.
- Export. WAV, MP3 or MIDI. Yours.
None of that costs a regeneration, because none of it is a re-roll.
And the same workstation, with the same CoProducer and the same mixer, is where you start tomorrow's song from an empty project. One tool, both directions.

There is a bigger version of this than one stuck song.
Most people who have made music for a few years have a graveyard: a folder of bounces from projects whose session files are gone, from DAWs they no longer own, from computers that died. Those tracks are frozen. You can listen to them and nothing else.
Import them into Veena and they are projects again. The drums are separable. The vocal can come out. The arrangement can change. Ideas you abandoned in 2019 become things you can finish this month.
That is not a feature comparison — it is a different relationship with your own back catalogue, and it exists because separation and a full DAW live in the same place.
Not because Suno cannot build a separator — it has one, with "Split from Mix" and "Advanced Split" options.
Because of what surrounds it. The separation feeds an environment that cannot host your plugins, does not run on your phone, requires the Premier tier, prefers Chrome, and documents generations landing off the beat. You can put your song in, but your plug-ins, and with them your sound, stay outside.
Studio 2.0 lets you feed it files. Veena lets you move in.
Start a new song from an empty project and a sentence, or bring in something you already recorded — the ten-year-old bounce, last night's rehearsal take, this morning's voice memo — and get real editable stems on a real timeline. Either way you land in the same full workstation, with an agentic CoProducer beside you and your own plug-ins through Veena Bridge. Free to start, files you own on the way out.
