What is Melody Creator Pro?
Melody Creator Pro is the advanced version of Melody Creator for shaping a short musical idea with more structure and control. It keeps the fast browser grid workflow, then adds deeper generation settings for melody length, rhythm, harmony, playback, and export.
Use it when a quick melody sketch needs more direction before it becomes a MIDI draft for a DAW, song idea, video cue, lesson, or game loop.
Built for sketching variations
Use the Pro workspace when a simple 16-step idea needs more room, motion, and arrangement detail.
Browser playback first
Hear the loop as you adjust the grid, tempo, harmony, instrument, and playback progress.
MIDI draft workflow
Create an editable melody creator draft that can move into a DAW for production, layering, and mixing.
Melody Creator vs Melody Creator Pro
The simple editor is for getting an idea out quickly. Pro is for deciding whether that idea has enough rhythm, range, harmony, and length to become a usable draft.
Best fit
Use the simple editor when
Fast first ideas: short hooks, scale practice, quick 16-step motifs, or checking whether a melody creator sketch works.
Use Pro when
Longer sketches that need shape before a DAW: verse loops, game cues, video beds, lesson examples, or MIDI drafts.
Loop length
Use the simple editor when
A compact grid that keeps the idea short and easy to scan.
Use Pro when
A bar-based workspace where you can stretch the phrase and control how much music plays before the loop returns.
Rhythm detail
Use the simple editor when
Basic tempo and grid editing for getting notes down quickly.
Use Pro when
Dominant note duration, rests, humanize, and swing help you decide whether a melody creator sketch should feel sparse, steady, loose, or busier.
Pitch shape
Use the simple editor when
Key and scale choices keep each melody creator idea inside a clear musical lane.
Use Pro when
Register and arpeggio settings help the generated line sit lower, higher, or closer to chord tones.
Harmony
Use the simple editor when
Preset chord support gives a melody creator sketch enough backing to judge the mood.
Use Pro when
Progression and editable chord blocks help test how a melody creator phrase behaves against different backing chords.
Export goal
Use the simple editor when
Best when you want a quick MIDI or WAV idea from the browser.
Use Pro when
Best when you want an editable MIDI draft with more deliberate rhythm, range, and harmony choices.
What the Pro options mean
The Pro workspace keeps the same basic melody maker controls, then adds options for longer loops, rhythm density, pitch range, phrasing, playback feel, and export-ready harmony.
Hear the difference
These previews use one short phrase so each button highlights the selected Pro option instead of changing the melody idea.
Dominant note duration
The same notes become spacious or busy as the step size changes.
Octave range
Hear the same contour moved into low, mid, and high registers.
Include rests
Rests make space between notes instead of filling every step.
Include arpeggios
Arpeggios outline chord tones instead of moving only by scale step.
Rest style
Rest style changes where silence falls in a generated idea.
Arpeggio pattern
The selected pattern changes the chord-tone direction.
Chord style
Chord style changes how the backing chord is voiced in time.
Humanize
Humanize nudges timing and volume so playback feels less locked.
Swing
Swing delays alternating steps for a lopsided groove.
Core melody
- Scale
- Chooses the note set the melody creator grid and generated line use, such as Major, Minor, Pentatonic, or Blues.
- Key
- Sets the tonal center, so melody creator notes and chords are built around that root note.
- Bars
- Controls the loop length. More bars give the idea more space before it repeats.
- Tempo (BPM)
- Sets playback speed and the tempo used when a melody creator draft is exported as MIDI.
- Dominant note duration
- Sets the main rhythmic step size, changing how dense or spacious the melody creator grid feels.
- Octave range
- Sets the generated register. Low, Mid, and High move the grid by octave; Wide opens a larger multi-octave grid for new ideas.
Generation feel
- Include rests
- Allows silence between notes so melody creator phrases can breathe instead of filling every step.
- Rest style
- Changes where silence appears: default gaps, sparser phrases, syncopated strong-beat spaces, or call-and-response gaps.
- Include arpeggios
- Adds broken-chord motion so generated notes can outline harmony instead of moving only by scale steps.
- Arpeggio pattern
- Changes the generated chord-tone contour: standard, rising, falling, or rise-and-fall motion.
- Humanize
- Adds small timing and volume variation during browser playback so the preview feels less rigid.
Harmony and sound
- Chords
- Turns backing harmony on or off while you preview and export a melody creator idea.
- Progression
- Applies a full chord sequence across the grid, while each four-step chord can still be edited by hand.
- Chord style
- Changes how backing chords are played: blocked hits, rolled stacks, rolled notes only, or broken chord patterns.
- Instrument
- Chooses the browser playback sound. MIDI export currently writes melody creator notes and chord notes with the app's default piano program.
- Swing
- Delays alternating steps during browser playback for a looser rhythmic feel.
