Are you interested in tonal harmony? Do you want to test your melody with harmony? MelodyHarmonizer is built for musicians, composers, and improvisers looking for new harmonic ideas. With MelodyHarmonizer, you can generate a wide variety of unique harmonizations for any melodic line you provide. Whether your input melody is tonal, chromatic, free-tonal, or even twelve-tone (dodecaphonic), the app explores what kinds of harmonic progressions can be applied to it. A Tool for Harmonic Exploration: MelodyHarmonizer is intentionally not based on standard probabilities. This means it does not necessarily produce a fully polished or the most commonly heard harmonization. Instead of forced, conventional coherence, it opens up unexpected harmonic paths and challenges your musical routine. Key Features: • Control the strength of suggested modulations. • Exclude unwanted chords from the harmonization rules. • Adjust the playback tempo of the harmonized melody. • Fine-tune relative note durations without affecting the underlying harmony. Discover tonal harmony in new contexts and expand your musical creativity with MelodyHarmonizer!

CACHE is a fast and simple sample browser for iPhone, iPad, and AUv3 hosts. It lets you open your own sample folders, browse collections instantly, preview audio files, detect sample key, and drag sounds straight into compatible apps and hosts. Built for producers who work across iOS and iPadOS, CACHE solves a problem that has been strangely overlooked for years: some DAWs and AUv3 hosts still don’t include a proper sample browser. Until now, that often meant digging through Files, switching between apps, and dragging samples in from outside your music workflow. CACHE puts that missing browser exactly where you need it. Use CACHE to: Browse your own sample folders and subfolders Preview one-shots and loops quickly Detect likely sample key for one-shots Drag samples directly into compatible DAWs, hosts, and apps Access collections from local storage, cloud locations, or external drives CACHE does not include any samples and does not make sound on its own beyond sample preview. You must supply your own sample folders. CACHE also does not copy or store your samples internally. It simply bookmarks and browses the folders you choose, so it won’t take up extra storage space with duplicate sample libraries. That makes it especially useful if your sounds live on external storage or outside the app itself.
