Master the --sref Parameter

The --sref (Style Reference) parameter in Midjourney allows you to apply a specific visual style to your generated images. By using a numeric code, you can consistently reproduce artistic styles across multiple prompts.

Simply add --sref followed by the code number at the end of your Midjourney prompt. For example: /imagine prompt: a beautiful landscape --sref 1234567890. The code will apply that specific style to your generation.

Yes! You can blend multiple style references by using --sref with multiple codes separated by spaces, and use --sw to adjust the style weight. For example: --sref 1234567890 9876543210 --sw 500

--style applies Midjourney's built-in style presets (like raw, cute, expressive), while --sref applies a custom numeric style reference code. SREF gives you more specific control over the visual style.

You can discover SREF codes through our curated library, community shares, or by experimenting with random numbers. Each 10-digit number produces a unique style that can be saved and reused.

SREF codes work best with Midjourney v5 and later versions. Some codes may produce different results across versions, so it's best to test codes with your preferred Midjourney version.
