Create your first project

Build, revise, and export a short multi-track idea in Sympose Studio.

When you open Sympose, begin with the kind of material you already have: an idea in words, a blank arrangement, a MIDI file, or a performance. This walkthrough uses a prompt, then shows how agent work and direct editing fit together.

1. Start a project

Choose a suggested starting point or write a concrete musical direction, such as:

Create an eight-bar foundation with drums, bass, and a restrained chord part at 110 BPM.

Sympose creates the project context and begins the requested work. You can also create a blank project, import MIDI, or record without asking the agent to compose first.

2. Review the arrangement

When the run completes:

  • Play the result in song context.
  • Select each clip to see where the work landed.
  • Read the change summary and any warnings.
  • Revert the run if the direction is wrong, or continue refining it.

3. Make a direct edit

Open a MIDI clip in Clip view. Select a few notes and move, resize, or adjust their velocity. Direct editing remains available after agent work, and Sympose uses the updated project state on the next turn.

4. Shape the sound

Select a track and open Device view. Choose an instrument or preset, then add or adjust effects. Try a scoped request such as:

Make the bass rounder and less bright without changing its notes.

Review the device changes and audition them with the full arrangement.

5. Finish or hand off

Open the export workflow and run the readiness check. Export a mix when you want a listening copy, or choose MIDI, stems, or a project bundle for a downstream workflow.

Other ways to begin

  • Blank project: build tracks and clips directly before involving Sympose.
  • MIDI import: bring in a sketch, then arrange, edit, or ask Sympose to develop it.
  • MIDI recording: play a part with a controller or the typing keyboard.
  • Audio import or recording: place audio on the arrangement and shape it with effects.
