Press Release Body: In this article i describe Musical Palette - Melody Composing
Tool.

Musical Palette program is a tool for the creation of melodies.

The program is based on composition theory and the theory of harmony. The strong
theoretical base makes the melody composing process easier.

The program contains demo scripts which show how to use the interface of the program
and how to compose melodies.

The program represents the melody in a structure that is analogue to the structure
of common speech. There are words (motives), phrases, sentences. Such an approach
allows a simple and effective algorithm to be applied to the composition of
melodies.

The program implements twelve methods of motive development. Some of them are listed
here: variation; inversion; sequence and so on. These methods similar to the visual
effects in graphical editors. The program suggests the \'theoretically correct\'
algorithm for the melody creation. The main advantage of the algorithm is: we take
some existing part of a melody (motive or phrase) and apply the methods of motive
development (for example, variation) to this motive of phrase to create a new
motive or phrase of the melody.

The program understands the logic of the functional motion. That is, the program
knows the rules, which describe how and in what sequence the chords appear in the
chord progression. On each step, the program suggests only those chords, which are
suitable for the current position in the chord progression.

The program understands the \'voice-leading\' rules. The rules define how one chord
notes transform to another chord notes. The chord progressions, where these rules
are used, sound very harmonious.

The program keeps the music within the limits of harmony and composition theory. It
guarantees a properly constructed melody and backing.

The program has an option that exports the melody to a midi (*.mid) file. The
exported file consists of three tracks: melody, chords, bass. You can import this
file to any midi sequencer or style arranger to create a complete tune.
