The knobs

Density to Humanize.

These five controls are the writing session. Sparse to busy, stiff to alive — without leaving the grid.

Density
How many notes land. Open it up for air. Push it when the part needs to move.
Variation
Phrase movement from bar to bar. Lock it when you like the shape and want to keep exploring around it.
Velocity
How hard the part hits. Soft stabs or a part that sits up in the mix.
Micro-Time
Swing and pocket. Lock it to hold the groove while you change everything else.
Humanize
Timing and velocity that feel played, not quantized. Groove-safe when you want the grid to stay honest.

Musical context

Genre. Section. Scale.

Lab does not guess in a vacuum. You tell it the world, then Generate inside it.

Genre
Auto plus twelve profiles with major and minor progression banks — Pop, and the rest of the room.
Section
Verse, Chorus, Drop, Break. Same key, different job.
Preset
Starting points like Warm Stabs, then your own Custom.
Scale
Eight types, including modal and harmonic minor. Lock the scale so Generate stays in key.
