Songbuddy: A Chord-Generator Companion

A lot of the time when I'm using FL Studio's chord generator, I end up building an elaborate patch from scratch in Patcher (say that five times in a row!) for variation, rhythm and more engagement and attachment to the song I'm making, but generally it wastes a ton of time to do this from scratch over and over again.

Well, not today, Satan! Errr... I mean: "There's got to be a better way!"

Songbuddy is an encapsulated song-in-a-box to bring your chord progressions to life even faster. Demo, write, record and export interesting patterns and chords without having to navigate away or worry about everything all at once, giving you even more time to focus on the song. Kill the arps, kick and cymbals at will, or bring them all back for a world tour, because it just kind of works™ without you having to do anything special.

With a combination of built-in sounds and my own designs, there's a lot going on under the hood here. But, rather than deep dive, you can just switch on the GUI and focus on the writing process!
