What could come next?
Ideas from the working harmony and reference key. Tentative without the melody; no chords are added without confirmation.
Genre-aware harmonic continuations
Manouche · contextual phrase continuations
Curated continuations based on the current phrase ending and reference key. Melody is not checked; only the explicit Append button changes the working progression.
Bossa Nova / Samba · contextual phrase continuations
Genre-aware harmonic ideas, not rhythm accompaniment. Tentative without the melody; Append is the only way to change chords.
Manouche paths: I6 → ii7
Curated examples; verify against the melody.
Progression
Musical phrases
Automatic groups of complete chord occurrences; timing, voicings and order stay unchanged.
Manual phrases export as Editor V2 sections. Mid-bar boundaries create exact partial bars.
Phrase harmonic intelligence
Tentative chord-only interpretation without the melody; no key or chord changes automatically.
