A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11875764B2) discloses a method for composing a media composition using a media composition application. The method involves automatically displaying suggestions for the continuation of the media composition while a user is entering content. These suggestions are displayed adjacent and sequential to the preceding portion of the composition, using a graphical style that distinguishes them. Users have the option to accept or reject these suggestions, with accepted suggestions being incorporated into the composition. The suggestions can be based on various factors such as the existing composition, genre-specific corpus, or data sources related to musical elements like rhythm, melody, and harmony.

The patent also covers the implementation of this method in various types of media composition applications, including musical scorewriter applications, digital audio workstations, and video composition applications. Additionally, it includes provisions for the length of suggestions, allowing users to select or automatically determine the length based on the composition's requirements. The patent further extends to computer program products and systems that facilitate the method of composing media compositions by providing users with intelligent suggestions for enhancing their creative output in a user-friendly and efficient manner.
