HelixChords generates chord progressions for your genre, right inside your DAW. Pick a genre, hit generate, and drag the MIDI into your track. That's it.
The drums come easy. Then you hit the piano roll, click notes one at a time, doubt every move, and forty minutes later you've got nothing you like.
Trial and error in the piano roll eats your session before the song has even started.
You shouldn't need to study scales and voice leading just to write four chords that work.
You reach for the same progression you always use, and every track starts to blur together.
Three steps. No menus to learn, no theory to memorise.
Trap, Drill, R&B or Pop. The engine sets the scale, voicings, BPM and feel to match.
A full, coherent progression appears instantly, and you hear it through the included synth.
Drop it straight into your DAW and keep building. Don't like it? Generate again.
A real music intelligence engine in a clean interface, made for finishing tracks, not studying them.
Each genre gets its own scale, voicing density, BPM range and velocity. Trap sounds like trap; drill sounds like drill.
Hear every progression the moment it generates. No routing, no extra plugins.
Movement between chords is minimised and common tones rewarded, so progressions flow instead of jumping.
Maj7, min9, dom9, sus, add9 and more. Real harmonic depth, not just basic triads.
See the chords laid out and coloured per chord, so you understand exactly what's playing.
Each genre has its own velocity, and a swing control gives chords groove, so they sound played, not programmed.
Early users, real sessions.
Ended up using it on every beat the same night I bought it. The trap progressions actually slap. I'm not fighting the piano roll anymore.
I never learned theory properly and always felt stuck on chords. This does that part for me. Generate, drag in, done.
The speed is the thing. Empty project to something I like in seconds. Killed my habit of overthinking the intro for an hour.
Does exactly what it says. R&B mode gives me lush 9th chords I could never voice myself. Solid plugin.
Bought the lifetime, no regrets. The preview synth means I know a progression works before I commit to it.
Keeps my pop chords fresh instead of the same four I always reach for. Paid for itself the first week.
