Hi justgetitdone,

BIAB can create chords for a single-note melody and it can also offer alternatives. The image below is taken from the "Help" (I clicked on "Index" and typed in REAHARMONIST). Make sure that when you load the midi melody, that you put it on the Melody track.

This tool, in addition to associated variations of the tool, are found under "Edit | Chords (w)" in my 2019 version of BIAB.

Because adding chords uses just a single note melody, it is possible that once chords are determined, it might be necessary to change some. The reason for this is that a melody can have multitudes of harmonisation possibilities and some chords could well sound better than others. That said, the Reharmonist is a great starting place.

Hope this helps,
Noel
