"Tonalic is based entirely on real studio recordings of experienced musicians who adapt to the tempo, harmony, and groove of a production in real time. The result is a natural musicality rarely found in digital environments."

"At the heart of Tonalic is an extensive collection of real performances recorded by over 30 professional studio musicians from around the world. These recordings span more than ten styles and provide access to 180 instruments that respond dynamically and harmoniously to each project. The software analyzes chord progressions, keys, and rhythmic structures, interpreting them musically, just as a real musician would respond in a studio setting. Rather than using loops or AI-generated phrases, Tonalic transfers the interaction and timing of human musicians into digital form. The result is lively, realistic-sounding tracks that fit organically into the song structure.

The interplay between human expression and technical precision is particularly exciting. At the heart of Tonalic is Adaptive Musical Intelligence (AMI), a further development of Melodyne DNA technology. AMI enables Tonalic to recognize and respond to harmonic relationships rather than forcing them. This preserves the feeling of a real session while allowing the user to maintain musical control. When creating an arrangement, you can adjust each part flexibly, generate variations, and add subtle nuances without losing the performance’s natural flow. Tonalic opens up an intuitive and interactive way to create music—with the depth of a real performance and the flexibility of digital tools."

The irony on all this is that back in 2003 - when I was working on code for my own version of the same thing as "realtracks" for a project similar to the BB VST plugin - eventually shelved - I actually contacted the founder of Celemony, Peter Neubäcker begging him several times to licence me the DNA tech... and of course he refused...... :|
