WORKFLOW FAQ

Common questions

Do I have to use all seven steps?

No. You can use only the tools you need. The workflow is connected, but each stage remains optional.

Can I regenerate only one layer?

Yes. Chords, bass, hooks and other elements can be adjusted or regenerated without replacing the entire project.

Can beginners use the workflow?

Yes. The main path uses simple decisions, while advanced controls remain available when you need them.

Is the finished track created inside the app?

No! The app uses AI to help you find and develop the starting idea as editable MIDI. You then move it into your DAW, choose the sounds and complete the arrangement, production, mixing and mastering yourself.
