## Harmony worth pulling into the chord maker

Finished tracks can suggest arrangement ideas. Build your own editable chord sequence in the workbench above.

### Memphis Tape

Memphis phonk at 140 BPM, cowbell melody, distorted 808 and a lo-fi vocal chop.

### Sunday Errands

Strum and claps - where a sunlit outdoor photo tends to land.

### Nocturne, One Candle

Rubato keys close-miked, with the hammer noise left in.

## The AI chord maker gives a new tune a harmonic starting point

### Choose the harmony before writing the tune

Set the key and mode, then try a style-based sequence. The chord names and editable MIDI notes give you a concrete starting point for a melody.

### Try a different harmonic starting point

Generate another sequence in the same key, or change the mode to explore contrasting chords before writing a lead line.

## Build an editable progression in three steps

### Give it a starting point

Choose one of twelve keys, major or minor mode, a musical style and a piano or guitar preview.

### Chords are suggested

You get a progression written as MIDI, so voicing and instrument stay open.

### Try it under your melody

Play the chords against what you have and keep the ones that hold the tune up.

## Harmony written as MIDI

### 12 selectable keys

Choose the tonal center before building the progression.

### 2 preview instruments

Hear the same MIDI notes on piano or nylon-string guitar.

### 10 musical styles

Style patterns provide different harmonic starting points.

### 1 editable MIDI file

Export the voiced notes and instrument program for further editing.

## AI Chord Maker features

AI Chord Maker builds a progression from your selected key, major or minor mode and style. Preview the chords with an instrument, export MIDI, or open the notes in the MIDI editor for further changes.

### Four chords carry most songs

The writing problem is rarely harmonic. A progression that repeats is what lets a listener predict the next bar, and predicting it is most of what makes a chorus feel like one.

### Take the progression into a note editor

Download the generated MIDI or open it in the browser editor to change notes and timing. The chord tool produces editable note data rather than a finished song recording.

## Who needs chords found for them

### Songwriters who play by ear

Try different harmonic sequences while developing a new melody, then keep the notes that suit the song.

### Producers building a bed

Get a harmonic bed down quickly so the arrangement work can start.

### Learners studying harmony

See how a progression is built rather than being handed only the sound.

## AI Chord Maker FAQ

Answers for creators comparing AI Chord Maker, AI music generators, editing tools, and royalty-aware publishing workflows.

### What is AI Chord Maker?

AI Chord Maker builds a progression from your selected key, mode and style. Listen with piano or guitar, export the MIDI notes, or open the sequence in the built-in editor.

### Do I need to know the key first?

Choose a key from the selector before generating. Chord Maker does not listen to a hummed melody or automatically detect a key; you can try different keys and compare the results.

### Why do several progressions fit the same tune?

Because a melody note can belong to more than one chord. That is why alternatives are offered rather than a single answer - the choice changes the mood, not the correctness.

### Can I change the voicing?

Yes. The output is MIDI, so inversion, spacing and instrument are all still yours to decide.

### How many chords should a progression have?

The initial example contains four chords. Generated length follows the chosen style pattern, from a short three-chord cadence to a twelve-chord blues sequence.

### Can I get it as MIDI?

MIDI output is the point of working here rather than generating audio. The notes stay editable, so you can revoice or reharmonise in your own session.

### Which key should I pick?

The one the singer is comfortable in, if there is a singer. Transposing a progression later is trivial; rewriting a melody to fit is not.

### Can I use the AI Chord Maker for commercial projects?

Aimusicis does not currently issue a commercial-use license or certificate. Download access is separate from usage rights; review the current Terms and confirm you hold the rights to every uploaded or referenced source before publishing.

### What should I do after using the AI Chord Maker?

Export the MIDI for your DAW, open the piano roll to edit it, or prepare a full-song prompt using the generated chord names. This browser sequence is not saved as a generated song in My Music.

### How many credits does AI Chord Maker use?

AI Chord Maker runs in the browser and draws zero credits.

## Give your next melody a harmonic starting point

Pick the key, and get the harmony that fits underneath it.
