The Phrase generator menu offers new starting patterns at one of
four levels of complexity on a press of the generate button. This
creative assistant and some more Block output-modifying features
in the main Melody Editor window are described in Part II.

1.11 The Block Map
You can create up to five different four-bar melodies in the manner
described above, and you can build each on a different Phrase or
on different combinations of patterns applied to copies of the same
Phrase. While a Block is up to four bars long, you don't have to play
any Block all the way through, or even have note data present in all
bars of the Block. In fact, you can create a melody using a pattern
consisting of portions read from the start of each of five Blocks. This
versatility is possible because you can make a block map that lets
you play any Block from its beginning (and only from its beginning),
starting at any bar in the Werk.

A Block's number from 1 through 5 can be stored at each bar of the
Map, which looks like yet another bar graph. When a set of Block
values is stored and subsequently enabled, maxWerk triggers a new
Block with every changed value, and silences Melody when there is
a Block value 0, regardless of the lengths of the patterns stored in
the Blocks. When the same Block number is entered for more than
four bars in a row, that Block will repeat from the beginning; but
when a Block's value changes after three bars, for example, you will
hear only one of its combined direction and inversion patterns
played and half of the next before new notes are read from a
different Block. If part of a Block in play has no entered notes, there
is silence while the empty steps pass.

Melody Blocks can be further embellished in the main Editor,
Phrases, and Melody Sound windows. To preview information from
Part II: velocities can randomly walk within a range you can set for
each half-bar, and there are options for automatic modulation or
aftertouch. The main Melody window has checkboxes for each
Block that let you disable transposing or add various kinds of
harmony lines. There are also settings for octave adjustments and
for the delay of all harmony lines by 16th-note steps.
