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 TranceEngine, 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 TranceEngine 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 TranceEngine 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.
