OriginalJJazzLab
JJazzLab is a complete and open application dedicated to backing tracks generation. You type in chord symbols, select a rhythm (music style), then the application generates a complete backing track with drums, bass, guitar, piano, strings, etc.
The objective is to generate interesting backing tracks, i.e tracks which are:
- realistic
- non-boring (with variations and dynamics)
- easily customizable, even for complex songs
The JJazzLab UI (available in several languages thanks to the JJazzLab community):

JJazzLab embeds its own customized software synth based on FluidSynth. For even better sounds, just connect JJazzLab to VST plugins via a virtual Midi cable and a VST host.
Community
JJazzLab has 35.000+ users from 90+ countries. It’s a jam buddy to have fun practicing at home or learn new stuff. It’s also a great tool for teaching or early-stage composing.

An open architecture
JJazzLab is based on the Apache Netbeans Platform which provides a reliable and extensible application architecture via plugins.
Developers can easily add music generation capabilities or try new ideas, without taking care of all the "plumbing".
JJazzLab Toolkit for developers
The JJazzLab Toolkit is a single standalone jar (all dependencies included) which contains the JJazzLab core (no GUI).
It makes it easy to experiment with JJazzLab models and algorithms, or create your own plugins.
