Music Block
OLEKSII SHEVCHENKOEducation & Research
Music Block turns music ideas in ChatGPT into playable sheet music and TAB. Ask for guitar licks, piano voicings, bass lines, drum grooves, melodies, chord progressions, exercises, arrangements, or music theory examples, and Music Block renders them as engraved notation directly in the conversation. Try prompts like “give me 5 melodic minor licks over B7alt,” “write a walking bass line over a ii–V–I,” “show me jazz piano voicings with smooth voice leading,” or “arrange this melody for string quartet.” Music Block supports guitar, bass, ukulele, piano and keyboards, drums, strings, brass, woodwinds, saxophones, and voices. Guitar, bass, and ukulele examples include TAB; keyboards use a grand staff; ensembles can contain up to eight parts. Every example includes playback, so you can hear what you are learning, change the tempo, and mute or solo individual parts. You can also work with alternate tunings, extended-range guitars and basses, swing and shuffle rhythms, tuplets, chord symbols, and common guitar techniques such as bends, slides, hammer-ons, and pull-offs. Use Music Block for practice, teaching, songwriting, arranging, and exploring music theory with short, original examples created for your conversation.
