What is Outrun SREF style

This striking aesthetic captures the essence of 1980s retro-futurism, often referred to as Outrun or Synthwave, highly popular in generating images via **Midjourney**. The defining features are the high-contrast color palette dominated by deep blues, cyans, and vibrant magentas/oranges, simulating a neon-drenched twilight or sunset. Shading is typically achieved through smooth, clean gradients and distinct lighting effects like sharp rim light, creating a dramatic and sleek look. Utilizing this **style** in a **prompt** results in imagery that feels nostalgic yet modern, perfect for cinematic scenes, stylized portraits, or vibrant landscapes emphasizing digital purity and atmospheric tension.

Frequently Asked Questions

What exactly is a Midjourney Style Reference (--sref)?

A Style Reference, or SREF, is a powerful feature that lets you use the aesthetic of a reference image to influence the style of your generations. Our library provides the direct SREF code for thousands of styles.

How do I understand and use the Aspect Ratio (--ar) parameter?

The --ar parameter controls the aspect ratio of your image. For example, --ar 16:9 creates a widescreen image. Our guide provides a full list of supported ratios.

Why is my SREF code not working?

Ensure you are using a compatible Midjourney version (v6 or newer) and check for typos. Sometimes, strong keywords in your prompt can override the style; try reducing the style weight (e.g., --sw 250).

Can I use this SREF code with a Character Reference (--cref)?

Yes, --sref and --cref can be used together. This is a powerful combination to maintain a consistent character while applying a consistent style.

Which versions support style reference?

Style Reference is compatible with Midjourney versions 6, 7, and Niji 6.

What is the default image size for Midjourney V7?
