HouseEngine MIDI generator released

New plug-in automatically writes bass lines, leads and more

German software company FeelYourSound have just launched a new product: HouseEngine. A VST/AU plug-in, HouseEngine essentially turns basic MIDI chord progressions into full-blown tracks, by analysing your chords (a selection of progressions is provided to get you started), identifying a suitable key signature for them, and then generating additional parts that will fit.

As its name suggests, HouseEngine is intended for house music, though its makers say early testers have used it for other genres with excellent results. It includes a selection of house-appropriate preview sounds, so you can audition its auto-generated parts, but once youve decided which ones work for you, you can either drag-and-drop the parts to another track on your DAW for playback by your own software or hardware synths, or (if youre using the VST version) simply route HouseEngines MIDI to another track.

The presets are divided up into a number of categories, such as Bass, Keys, Lead and Strings, and once theyve been generated, you can shift them up or down an octave, apply swing, and modify the detected key signature if the automatically chosen one isnt right for you.

HouseEngine is available in two flavours: the Standard edition, which costs 45, has all the features mentioned above, while the Pro edition ( 360) includes a mass MIDI export function, so that you can output hundreds of MIDI parts in one go, as well as a licence to sell the generated MIDI parts commercially. If youre quick, you can get either version for their reduced introductory prices (30% off the Standard edition, and 50% off HouseEngine Pro), using the codes IntroDeal or IntroDealPro in the FeelYourSound online shop.
