You can ask Euterpe to provide the scale, the instrumentation, suggest a genre, or even abstract directions that can help you break out of a rut.

Integrated playback for all generated scales and keys helps you feel the mood before you even pick up your instrument. Vision Management: Save your favorite generated inspirations as "Visions." Refine and edit them as your project grows from a simple idea into a full composition.
