Good song writing software?
Im looking for some software that will that generate melodies, chords, and a rhythm track for me to help in writing a song. I have heard of "band in a box" but am looking for others...are there any more professional (i.e. expensive) programs out there? Normally id buy the least expensive, but if there is a good one out there let me know..thanks

Adobe Audition, which was formerly known as Cool Edit Pro is an excellent piece of software. There is also Fruity Loops which is a bit more complicated, but more extensive. The two work nicely together, I find.
I hope that's what you're asking about...

The most popular method is just using Acid Loops or Groove Clips with recording software.
With a little google work I came up with a piece of freeware. It could very well be crap ;-P

You will find that there is plenty of software out there that will create an accompaniment, but not the melody itself.

Google:
+generate +melody
+generate +accompaniment
+generate +rhythm
Oh !!! I almost forgot. The following forum is a great musician resource.
