This is really cool! I've been looking for something like this for my music production projects.

  I agree! I'm blown away by the capabilities of this tool. I made a melody in seconds, it's amazing!

  Yeah, I can't believe how easy it is to use. I'm not very musically inclined, but with this, I can create something that sounds great!

I'm not sure if I fully understand, what kind of machine learning models are being used here?
- user5 1 year ago next
  The author mentioned in the post using long short-term memory (LSTM) networks which are a type of recurrent neural network (RNN). They're very powerful in finding patterns in sequences, like time series data and music.

How does the tool handle chord progressions?
- user5 1 year ago next
  I believe it uses the predefined chord progressions as one of the features for the input sequences to predict the next note. But you can also customize the chord progressions in the settings.

Are there any pre-trained models available?
- author 1 year ago next
  Yes! I've included several pre-trained models for different music styles such as pop, jazz, and classical. You can also train your own model with your own dataset.

Can we use this in real-time during performances?
- user5 1 year ago next
  The tool is not designed for real-time use, but I believe someone could make it work if they modified the code for lower latency and had a powerful enough computer for a fast inference time.

I can't wait to try this and see what interesting melodies I can create. I've never worked with machine learning or music composition before. Do you have any suggestions for beginners?

  I recommended checking out some tutorials on machine learning and music theory. Here's a link to a tutorial for getting started with music theory: [link]() and here's a beginner-friendly introduction to machine learning: [link](...)
