Thanks, yeah I had thought of that. I think it could potentially be useful in lots of different ways. Right now though it's very much geared toward this specific purpose. Much of its initial purpose was to align everything with the modulations/filters we're using, because doing it manually in a DAW is hell.

It's definitely not meant to replace musicians/composers. Actually I still work with musicians/composers to create tiny bits of sound (individual notes, etc) and stems for the AI to work with. More importantly, I'll work them to help me figure out how I can improve the AI for certain genres. Indie music / folk, for example, are particularly difficult. Rock, near impossible, so far. Could be the limitation of the stereotypical 3:05 long song, but then I think, Mike Oldfield.. haha. Fun challenges!

I would LOVE to make a tool for musicians though. The 3D-audio stuff alone could be pretty useful I think. If I can do some cool stuff with it, I'd love to see what other, more creative people can do. I've never seen it done this way. There's some VST plugins, but they're not that great. Of course there's a ton of binaural microphone recordings, like the barbershop. But it's a whole different level to be able to move thousands of generated sounds around in 3D space.

Maybe sometime in the future when things calm down :)
