Ludwig komponiert Begleitungen Note für Note, damit Sie gut zur Melodie passen. Das ergibt bessere Musik als die üblichen Begleitpatterns, die man z.B. von einem Keyboard oder herkömmlichen Autocomposern kennt.
Ludwig beherrscht den klassischen vierstimmigen Chorsatz genau wie z.B. Jazz, Samba, Funk oder House.
Das Programm kann auch eigene Melodien schreiben und damit lizenzfreie Musik generieren.
Für Anfänger auf einem Instrument produziert Ludwig leichte Übungsstücke, die gut klingen, weil sie mit voller Band begleitet werden. Für Fortgeschrittene gibt es Funktionen zum Improvisationstraining.

Schnittstellen: Druck von Leadsheets und Stimmenauszügen, Midi Import (Datei oder Keyboardanschluss), Midi Export, MusicXML Export und MP3/WAV-Aufzeichnung.</Char_Desc_2000>
