Music Theory Integrated Create great sounding chord progressions, use piano-style phrases even if you’ve never touched a piano, auto-harmonize melodies, get chord suggestions, load MIDI files with chord detection, use the chord palette or the "circle of fifths" chart, RapidComposer will always assist you in songwriting. Smart Phrases Phrases always conform to the current chord and scale on the master track. Forget about tinkering with notes.
