I wish there was something like this for flstudio.
I've got 25 years of loops that basically to finish them need better arrangements. Using AI to auto generate sections is what I'm missing.

Welcome to the club. You need to learn how to actually finish a track, which is the most difficult but also the most rewarding part. Why would you use AI for that? I mean, just listen to that demo track Codex made in the above repo, you surely don't want that.
There's a good book about this, published by Ableton, you can read it for free here:

It's a garbage-in, garbage-out situation. If you give it more musical direction you will get more out of it.
The book I mentioned has a good suggestion when struggling with arrangements: just copy. Take a track you really like, put it into your DAW, sync the speed and replicate its structure. You'll see that in many genres, structure is often exactly the same anyway. This can be an eye opener, and once you've realized this, you'll be able to experiment with structure in ways you couldn't do before. That's the fun part.
I think you would get much better feedback if you'd focus on these use cases: flattening the learning curve for newcomers, and new ideas for experienced users, rather than creating tracks completely by AI. Because in that case, why even go through a DAW and not use Suno directly?
A cool thing about this MCP is you can ask Codex Ableton questions and it will go and read the state of your current Live Set and answer based on that. You don't have to have it change anything for you if you don't want.
I don't think you understand. I've got thousands of songs. Why would I use Ai to generate arrangements... Maybe for ideas?
Maybe because certain things I'm lazy about?

It's not actually difficult to finish a song if your output is high enough. Sometimes the songs just come out without any struggle. But most of the time they don't.
I wrote and finished my first song around 1996. Using Cakewalk plugged into a midi keyboard.
HN is full of people who think using AI means you are lazy or can't do something. The fault is yours not mine. Adapt
