I just discovered
JamStudio, which is a web-based tool for creating tracks with guitar and keyboard chords, and drum patterns. It's pretty interesting, and I think I can do a better job with it than I can with a midi editor, when I need to cobble some background music together. I've been working on one for "The Lonesome Boatman," to replace the lousy one I posted a while back. JamStudio is fairly rock-oriented, and it's limited in what you can do with it. It only has 4/4 time, and only the most basic chords. But sometimes that's all you need.
