AGENT BASICS
The Glitch Agent lives inside the DAW. It listens to the session you have open and works with you on the music — answering questions about the project, suggesting next moves, and helping you reach the sound you are chasing.
// WHERE TO FIND IT
The agent is the panel on the right side of the DAW window. It is a chat surface: a scrolling thread of messages with an input at the bottom. Type a message, hit enter, and the agent replies inline. There is no separate window to launch and no project to set up — the panel is always present alongside the timeline.
// HOW IT BEHAVES
The agent behaves like a chatbot with full context about the project you currently have open. It can see your tracks, clips, instruments, effect chains, tempo, key, and arrangement — and it keeps that picture up to date as you work. You do not need to describe the session before asking a question; the agent already knows what is in front of you.
Conversation is the only interface. Ask a question and you get an answer; describe a goal and you get suggestions. The agent talks about your session in concrete terms — track names, clip positions, plugin settings — rather than generic advice.
// WHAT TO ASK
Two broad shapes of question work well:
- Questions about what you have — “what key is this in?”, “which tracks are clipping?”, “what reverb is on the lead vocal?”, “is the kick fighting the bass?”. The agent reads the current state of the session and answers from it.
- Questions about what to do next — “the chorus feels thin, what should I add?”, “how do I get more punch out of these drums?”, “what would a bridge look like here?”. The agent suggests moves grounded in the track you are actually working on.
// A COLLABORATOR, NOT A BUTTON
The agent understands the music you are trying to create. Tell it what you are going for — the genre, the reference track, the feeling you want the drop to land with — and it will help you get there. It is most useful when you treat it like a producer sitting next to you: share the goal, talk through the problem, and let it point you at the next thing to try.
