Orb Composer
AI-assisted composition software that turns moods and blocks into full arrangements.
About
Orb Composer by Hexachords is desktop software whose artificial intelligence helps composers, bands, and orchestrators turn high-level ideas into complete pieces. Users think in terms of mood, intensity, and structure, and the AI proposes instrumentation, chord progressions, and arrangements.
It syncs with any major DAW, hosts VST and AU instruments directly, imports melodies via MIDI, and exports audio. Artist and Pro editions offer templates, smart chords, drum algorithms, and humanization, aimed at TV, film, game, and radio deadlines.
