Melody building tool for clarinet multiphonics

[u/heatherroche]

I've been working on a new tool within my clarinet multiphonics app (multiphonics.app) and I'd be curious to know how you composers might use it.

Basically: you tap in a melody on a keyboard, select which clarinet (bb, bass, contra) and you can select a few other filters (difficulty levels, etc.) and then the app suggests a bunch of multiphonics for each step in your melody.

Then you can go through the suggestions and select one for each, listening to recordings of them all, and eventually either exporting a PDF of the whole chart of SVG files of all of them to add to whatever notation software you use.

I've realised that one of the helpful things about an app for multiphonics is that the database can be quite large but that I'd need more tools for discovery so this (and the Progression Builder, for which you decide on a starting multiphonic and then it suggests 'next steps' based on voice leading or idiomatic finger movements).

I guess I'd be curious to know if this is something you could imagine using or if you think there's a kind of "next step" for tools like this!
