MusicDevelopments has announced an update to its unique, non-destructive, phrase-based music prototyping software designed for composers, songwriters and musicians of all musical styles.
Version 5.1 of RapidComposer features a new AI assistant which suggests chord replacements, chord progressions, chord rules, scales, phrases, tracks, and song structure.
Besides the built-in prompts, the user can ask music composition related questions in the AI chat window. RapidComposer will extract and display musical suggestions from the reply, ready for inserting into the composition (e.g. by drag-and-drop).
