Hi Joanne,

Is your app a front end to the ChatGPT AI?

Nice job.

Hi Dave. It uses ChatGPT as the backend via an API which is accessed via the app. It does offer some advantages over native ChatGPT in that it generates a specific songwriting prompt for you, you do not need a username or password and you don't need to login anywhere. Also, ChatGPT native is often not available (it reaches its capacity every now and then and you cannot get it. The API is always available).

Ok, thanks Joanne.

The app is $12 here (Canada), but I think that's a reasonable price for what you have added. On my way out the door, but I'll pick it up later on today cool

I have Joanne's app and it is amazing.

Very clean. Very fast and efficient. A real time saver. Super fast.

You can email the lyrics to yourself and when you backspace you get another version.

You can do this a million times until you find the stuff you are looking for!! smile

Once emailed, I copy and paste it into an app called lyric notepad and am off to the races.

(Lyric notepad counts syllables and color codes rhyme schemes etc.)

A very useful set of tools!!

I just downloaded it myself. It's a free app with IAP, works on iPads as well. Not had a chance to try it out yet but looks promising.

Joanne,

It is.

Really cool.

Love that it color codes rhyme schemes and counts syllables. VERY useful.

I think the paid version is 1.99. I would do that.

I downloaded Lyric Notepad for IOS, it crashes every time on both my iPad and iPhone on the latest OS. I’ll give it another go when they update it next.

Yeah. me too. What a great pity. I did download to Android (I have a really crummy Android phone for testing my apps) and it works well there...Just my phone is rubbish.

I was going to contact the seller of Lyric Notepad from the App Store about the crashing problem. Then I noticed the last update was three years ago, I doubt thats likely to be usable any time soon on IOS.

On a positive note, I am getting some very good results from Joannes app. I have sent links to the app to all my friends who may not have heard of it. Hopefully that will generate more Sales for Joanne.

I have several of these apps including Joanne's.

I look at them in the same way I look at the melodist feature in BB. It's a good way to get an idea started but it by no means is going to write you a well thought out hit lyric. It does however, provide you with a lyric that you can then apply some of your own creative juices, edit where necessary, and flesh out something a lot more creative. At this point it does seem to be a possible alternative to having a staring contest with the screen or a sheet of paper and tossing out ideas that become immediate dead ends.

All I've done to this point is to play around with it to see how it works. I've saved a few that showed some promise and when I have a chance, I will delve into the lyrics a bit further and see what I can turn up.

Anyway, that's my assessment of the state of songwriting AI at this moment.

That is exactly how I use the melodist, soloist, and AI.

For those that have downloaded my app, please update. I have included the ability to copy the lyrics to your clipboard because some people had trouble with the email not formatting the lyrics nicely.
I will be updating the app quite a bit over the next couple of weeks, so please update periodically.

Really enjoying your app Joanne.

Hoping to help cure my persistant writers block when it comes to lyric writing.

Many Thanks, Andrew

Herb and Mario, Joanne the Genius, everyone:

Yes, there is no shame (or instant fix either) in using these tools.

A famous award winning songwriter told me that he and his buddy always had a "hook day" at least once week where they would walk around a record store looking at albums in shelves, pulling out song titles they could tweak (or steal, I guess), looking at liner notes, song lyrics, seeing what they could borrow from or reinvent, and then head back to the house to drink and get loaded and write some songs.

Aside from the drinking and getting loaded part, what's the difference??

A song prompt is a song prompt, nothing more, nothing less...

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!

If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.

A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."

"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."

"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
