Field notes
The page lays out a three-step workflow: import a file or link, shift it into a singer’s range or a named maqam, then save a practice version. It lists eight maqamat and says the first version uses 12-TET, explicitly excluding microtonal recording transpose. Optional vocal reduction is described as mix-dependent, with the page warning that dense pop can produce messier results.
