Major New Tools

🧪 Recipes - Full Launch

  • Community sharing - Save and share your recipes with other producers

✍️ Rhymes - Visual Lyric Writing
Introducing our newest tool for songwriters and lyricists! Rhymes transforms the way you write by providing real-time visual feedback on your lyrical patterns.

Key Features:

  • Syllable pattern analysis - Understand the rhythm and flow of your lyrics
  • Real-time feedback - Watch patterns emerge as you type

Starts: Major Feature Additions

🎼 Chord Progression Generator
For those who want faster, weirder progressions, this is for you. Let our intelligent progression generator create harmonic foundations for your starts.

Features:

  • Smart progression suggestions based on music theory
  • Instant regeneration - Don't like it? Generate another in seconds
  • Customizable parameters - You have the controls.

📦 Batch MIDI Generation & Download
Workflow revolution! Generate multiple variations of your track settings and download them all at once.

How it works:

  1. Find your perfect settings - Tweak until you love the sound
  2. Hit "Generate Batch" - Create 5, 10, or 20 variations
  3. Download as a pack - Get a ZIP file with all your MIDI
  4. Import to your DAW - Instant inspiration library

Perfect for:

  • Producers who want multiple options to choose from
  • Building MIDI libraries from successful generations
  • Having backup variations of great settings

🔬 Deep Dive: Recipes in Action

Real-World Use Cases

Experimental Processing
"What if I run a sine wave through a delay, then into a distortion, then route it through a filter and a haas effect in parallel?" - With Recipes, unconventional signal routing is just a few cable connections away.

Sharing Knowledge
"I figured out an amazing lead sound technique" - Save your complete setup and share it with the community. Others can load your recipe, learn from it, and build upon your ideas.

The Browser Advantage

Unlike traditional DAW plugins, Recipes runs entirely in your browser:

  • No installation hassles - Start designing sounds immediately
  • Cross-platform compatibility - Works on Windows, Mac, mobile
  • Instant sharing - Send a link to share your exact setup
  • Always updated - New effects and features appear automatically

Community Integration

Recipes isn't just a tool - it's a learning platform:

  • Browse community recipes - Discover techniques from other producers
  • Collaborate - Build on each other's ideas

🐛 Bug Fixes & Improvements

Starts Stability

  • Fixed generation timeouts that occurred with complex scale/progression combinations
  • Improved memory management for better performance during long sessions
  • Resolved audio playback issues on certain browser configurations
  • Enhanced MIDI export reliability - downloads now work consistently

🔮 What's Coming Next

Immediate Roadmap

🎵 Starts: Advanced Pattern Control
More algorithms, more control, more drums.

🧪 Recipes: Additions and Improvements
Recipes is a complicated system. It has bugs, for example, the MIDI isn't the best, but this is a good start. More effects, more oscillators, are on their way.

✍️ Rhymes: Advanced Analysis
Rhymes is a quick proof of concept for a planned lyric writing system. Whilst the full system is still in development, expect improvements to the current rhyme visualization. Rhymes are a tricky business!
