Abstract: To generate a melody, one or more machine-readable constraints are accepted from a user through a user interface. The constraints include rhythm constraints and pitch constraints. A sequence of musical elements is generated based on the constraints, each of the musical elements specifying, in machine-readable data, a musical pitch or silence and a duration of the musical pitch or silence. The pitch constraints prescribe pitches in the sequence of musical elements and the rhythm constraints prescribe rhythm of the sequence of musical elements. The sequence of musical elements is rendered in human-perceivable form as a melody.

Abstract: A system and methods for collaborating on a musical composition over a communication network, the system having processing circuitry that obtains the musical composition stored within a data storage device of the system, the musical composition including a first musical input data associated with a first channel, receives, via the communication network, second musical input data from a client device, the second musical input data being associated with a second channel, generates a data block based on the received second musical input data, the generated data block including synchronization data associated with the second musical input data relative to at least a portion of the musical composition, and transmits the data block to memory, the memory being accessible via the communication network to the client device and other client devices that are collaborating on the musical composition.

Abstract: An apparatus, method, and computer-readable storage medium that generate a harmonized musical piece. The method includes receiving a chord selection including a musical key and a scale selection, generating, within a digital audio work session, a chord progression sequence based on the received chord selection, in response to a detected chord selection change, modifying the chord progression sequence to include a chord progression corresponding to the chord selection change, setting the chord progression sequence as a master sequence, in response to detecting a second progression sequence within the digital audio work session, transmitting an identifier to the second progression sequence setting it as a slave sequence, and establishing a synchronized communication link between the master and the slave sequences such that changes made in the master sequence are automatically effectuated in the slave sequence, and combining the master sequence and the slave sequence to form a composed musical piece.
