This short walks through a Mac session in Songen: generate a starting groove locally, then open the result as editable MIDI on a multi-track timeline instead of a frozen audio bounce.
The clip shows the generative DAW loop the site documents for Songen: on-device generation, arrangement on the timeline, and handoff to the rest of a production stack when you want finer control.
Get Songen at songen.app.
Key Takeaways
- On-device engine: Beat ideas start from local generative output on Mac, not a cloud render queue.
- Editable MIDI: Generated parts land as tracks you can move, mute, and replace like any DAW session.
- Starting point, not a lock-in: The workflow treats generation as a sketch you finish in the timeline.
- Songen on desktop: The same Vibin generative stack behind the iPhone app, shown here in the Mac generative DAW build.
