The COMPOSE ALL app feature creates a new melody and accompanying harmony from scratch. You can use this feature as fresh ideas generator and then tweak the melody.

AUTO MODE - when active the melody is autocomposed every 4 (changeable in Settings) cycles. During playing you can save the composed melody via Save button.

Three types of AUTO MODE are available:

1. When AUTO MODE is active and COMPOSE ALL is selected then both melody and harmony will be autocomposed every 4 cycles. The text below button PLAY will show "AUTO ALL".

2. When AUTO MODE is active and COMPOSE NOTES is selected then melody only will be autocomposed every 4 cycles. The text below button PLAY will show "AUTO NOTES".

3. When AUTO MODE is active and COMPOSE CHORDS is selected then harmony only will be autocomposed every 4 cycles. The text below button PLAY will show "AUTO CHORDS".

The notes and chords are changed using the drop down menus for each note. You can listen for both melody and harmony or only one of them using check boxes in control menu.

If you want to auto compose some notes of melody just check them and press Auto Compose button. Then the notes will be composed for you.

How to use it:

1. Select tempo, note scale and note length.
2. Create melody rhythm by checking the checkboxes below the notes. Play rhythm and tweak it if needed.
3. Press COMPOSE NOTES button to generate the notes for selected rhythm.
4. Listen to melody repeatedly and tweak the notes manually or with the help of auto composer by leaving the notes targeted for change checked.
5. Add harmony accompaniment

The individual notes are chosen using drop down menu.

If you could please add an undo function. Spent 25 minutes working this one sound and forgot to save. UPDATE: Wow, I was not expecting the developer to respond so quickly. I also discovered the settings menu you got to stay there's a lot of advanced features in this app. As I learn more about it I fall more in love with it. Made a beautiful song last night wish I could share it. Used bandlab to bring the sound to life.

As all this developer's apps, generate random melodies (pseudo-random to be more precise, 'cause there are some settings you can change) for use as a starting point in music production. Export midi, import it into your DAW and you'll have a template for a future song.
