Before you start
- A Galileo session with a source.
- Plan needed: the 7-day free trial or a subscription. Podcasts and songs aren’t part of the free preview.
Steps: make a podcast
- Open the session for your upload.
- Choose Podcast (marked Beta) in the Galileo panel. You’ll see “Generating your podcast… Script + audio, ~60–90 s. You can leave this page.”
- Listen. When “Podcast ready!” appears, it starts playing. Use Back 10s and Forward 10s to move around.
- Read along under Transcript, or choose Download to keep the audio.
Steps: make a song
- Choose Create Song in the Galileo panel.
- Pick a style: Acoustic Pop, Rap / Hip-Hop, Lo-fi Chill, Pop Anthem, Cinematic, EDM / Dance or Indie Folk. Or describe your own under Write Your Style, for example “slow reggae with a saxophone solo”.
- Choose Generate Song. You’ll see “Generating your song… Lyrics + track, 1–3 min. You can leave this page.”
- Listen when “Song ready!” appears. Read the Lyrics, skip with Back 10s and Forward 10s, and choose Download to keep it.
Tips
- Songs are great for lists and sequences you must memorise, such as the order of stages or a set of definitions.
- Podcasts suit revision on the move; play one before re-reading your notes.
- Reopen them any time from Generated or the session’s Artifacts.
If something goes wrong
- “Podcast generation failed” or “Song generation failed. Please try again.” Choose the button again.
- “Podcast not ready” or “Song not ready”. It’s still being made, or it failed. Wait a minute, or generate it again.
- “Cannot generate song” or “No active session found.” Open the session from History and try again.
