Write Music With Character

Musical genres and styles come and go. But at the core it's still rhythm, harmony, melody and structure that make the difference. Sparks is a great tool to freely experiment with these ingredients, put them together and export dynamically rendered MIDI tracks to your DAW.

What Synfire Sparks Can Do

• Arrange a song with multiple sections.
• Replace keys, chords or scales at any time.
• Use the Palette to explore harmony.

What Happened To Harmony Navigator 2?

Harmony Navigator is no longer a separate standalone product. It has been integrated with the Synfire family: Sparks, Express and Pro. You can upgrade your copy of HN2 to Synfire Sparks or Synfire Express. With both editions you can now host your audio plug-ins (AudioUnits, VST3, VST), edit phrases and collect you own libraries.

Now that all editions are based on the same foundation, you can use most tutorials and instructions made for any of the other editions. Although they are not 100% identical, you will more easily find what you are looking for.
