Zplane development has launched version 1.0 of its new AI-powered music theory plugin Tonic, an effect that helps you to find the scales and chords that work with your music.
Put the TONIC plugin on any audio track and hit play in your DAW. TONIC will analyse the sound in real time and present you with up to three suggested keys with a graphical representation showing the confidence level. Fold out the keys panel and try out notes and chords for the suggested keys to find the perfect fit.
Add bass, melody or harmony to your tracks with ease when knowing the key, scale and chords that work well with your recordings and samples.
