Five Out of Five Stars
I’ve been using ChilloutEngine, and I have to say that it’s been a game-changer for me. With ChilloutEngine, I’m able to write tracks that sound just as good as anything I’ve ever written, and often in a fraction of the time. Thorsten Meyer of StrongMocha

My long journey has come to an end, FINALLY!!! After years of purchasing every chord generator under the sun I stumbled across ChillOutEngine. I just want to thank you for all your efforts in creating such a valuable tool. Rav
ChilloutEngine is designed to give you instant results within seconds. You can use preset categories and tags to find the right presets quickly.
The interface makes it easy to export the generated melodies. Simply click on the MIDI field behind a ChilloutEngine preset and drag it to a track of your DAW. The Engine will export the generated melodies as standard MIDI files, compatible with any DAW.
You can then work on the notes however you like. Use all the tools of your DAW to craft something completely unique - or simply leave the notes as they are.
The Pro version also includes a built-in mass-exporter. When you click on the "Export" button, you can write hundreds and hundreds of generated phrases directly to a folder on your computer. The perfect way to build your own collection of ready-to-use MIDI files.
With all the inspiration at your fingertips, it's easy to quickly create a new song. Use the free time to tweak your sound design and finish your songs.
Among the many presets, you are sure to find a melody that stands out and enhances your song.
And when you share your album with friends, they won't be able to tell which tracks were created with the help of a "co-producer". Bring your songs up to label quality in no time.
ChilloutEngine consists of several different tools, combined in one interface. Each of them utilizes specific, genre-optimized algorithms:
1. Chord Progression Generators
ChilloutEngine contains various chord progression generators to get you started even quicker. Choose one of the optimized generator algorithms and the Engine will calculate a new chord progression for you. Create dozens of progressions within seconds and keep working with what you like.2. Keys Engine
Smooth, atmospheric piano phrases are important for many chillout tracks. Whether you use them as your main instrument or to add a delicate background melody. Take a look at the "keys" section to find different playing styles.3. Arpeggiator
Layered arpeggios are a great way to create spacious soundscapes. Slowly build up cascades of notes to add a floating feeling to your track. Perfect in conjunction with a nice reverb.4. Bassline Creator
Generate fitting basslines for the low end of your track. Suitable for acoustic instruments and bass synthesizers alike, it's the perfect addition not only for Downtempo and Chillstep songs.5. Melody Module
ChilloutEngine supports a variety of different melody concepts. Choose from ostinati and spaced rhythm melodies, or experiment with duo tones and legato strings. Both melodies with short notes and legato notes are available.+ Bonus features
Several other preset categories are available to enhance your tracks. Add guitar phrases, drone notes, stabs, and strings to your compositions.All these features will save you a lot of time and get you out of writer's block. Whether you are an experienced musician or don't know anything about music theory.
ChilloutEngine comes with a big list of presets for all occasions.
The influences reach from classic Downtempo and Ambient songs to modern Lo-fi, Chillstep, and Lounge tracks.
The content includes evergreen elements like atmospheric piano sections and time-tested basslines as well as generatively modified phrases and melodies that top producers would use.
Here are some examples where all chord progressions and melodies were generated with ChilloutEngine:
Piano Lounge
Space + Beats
Downtempo
Melodic Techno
The genre tools HouseEngine, ChilloutEngine, and TranceEngine are separate and independent plug-ins. All Engines support different genres. And they contain distinct presets and chord progression generators.
But they also work hand in hand if needed. All Engines share a similar workflow and interface. This makes it easy to use them side by side.
You can copy a chord progression in the chords page of one product and then import it from the starting page of the second one. The Engines also share a "Recent chord progressions" list. This way you can spice up your song with influences from different genres.
When you purchase ChilloutEngine, you will receive your personal serial. You can use this serial on any of your own computers, even on multiple devices at the same time. No online activation needed. Just download the demo and enter your serial.
All future updates are free forever, there are no recurring fees. Buy now and use ChilloutEngine for years to come.
Of course, you can use all generated phrases and melodies in your own productions. Whether you do a commercial release, write songs together with friends, or produce a track for another person: As long as you use the generated MIDIs as part of a musical composition, everything is fine.
If you want to distribute the generated files as an own bundle (e.g. if you want to create a commercial or free MIDI pack), you will need to buy a ChilloutEngine Pro license. The Pro version also contains a MIDI mass-exporter that will make it easy for you to create hundreds of files within seconds.
Are you worried that your songs and melodies will sound the same as someone else's? You don't have to! You can read more about this here.
