What is Wingman?
Wingman is a music production plugin that works inside your DAW. It listens to your audio and helps you create musical ideas around it, including chord progressions, basslines, stems, audio-to-MIDI parts, rhythmic patterns, sounds, and effects.
You can use Wingman to start a track, build around a vocal, remix an acapella, turn audio into MIDI, separate stems, or create a fuller production idea from a simple melody, loop, or sample.
A faster way to build music from audio
Instead of starting from a blank piano roll, you can give Wingman a musical idea from your session. Wingman listens to the audio and helps you build useful production parts around it.
What does Wingman do?
Wingman helps producers turn existing audio into new musical material. You can start with a melody, vocal, acapella, synth loop, full track, sample, or unfinished idea, then use Wingman to build chords, basslines, MIDI, stems, rhythms, sounds, and exportable parts.
Wingman can help you create:
- Chord progressions that fit your audio
- Basslines that support the chords
- MIDI from vocals, melodies, and loops
- Separated stems for remixing
- Rhythmic chord and bass patterns
Wingman can help you shape:
- Chord rhythm and bounce
- Bassline movement
- Instrument sounds
- Effects like reverb, delay, and filtering
- MIDI and WAV exports for your DAW

How Wingman works inside your DAW
Wingman works as a plugin inside your DAW. You record audio into Wingman, choose the workflow you want, then export the result back into your session.
Add Wingman to your DAW session
Open Wingman as a plugin inside your DAW and place it on the track you want it to listen to.
Record the audio you want to build around
Use Record Audio to capture a vocal, melody, loop, sample, acapella, or track section from your session.
Start with audio from your session
Wingman uses the audio you record as the starting point for musical ideas, stems, and MIDI workflows.
Review the ideas Wingman creates from your audio
After the audio is recorded, Wingman automatically creates useful results from the source material. Depending on the audio, you can review chord and bassline ideas, separated stems, and audio-to-MIDI clips for vocals, instruments, and bass.
From there, you can decide which results are useful for your track and continue shaping them inside Wingman or export them into your DAW.
Edit the idea and export it
Once you have a result you like, you can adjust rhythm, change sounds, add effects, then export the idea as MIDI or WAV into your DAW.

Wingman brings several creative workflows into one plugin, so you can move from audio to musical ideas without constantly switching tools.
