Chord Names |
The Automated Composing System uses chords that consist of
four notes. For example, C7 contains C, E, G, Bb. (Some
chords have only three notes such as C. C contains only C, E, G.) The
Automated Composing System does not use chords that consist
of five notes, such as C9. Notes after 9th note are used as
tension notes. The system uses sus4 note, but it always goes
to major 3rd note quickly. The Automated Composing System
also does not use 6th Chord such as C6. |

Chord Length |
The length of each chord block is determined using random
numbers, and they will be from one to eight times of quarter
note length. In many cases, chord length is equal to one
measure. However, it is not necessary that chord length is equal to one
measure.
If one measure is selected as chord length, the length of chord is always
equal to one measure. |
