Is there any software to help me harmonize a melody? I know of Harmony Navigator. Are there others?

Thanks.

They may help you... or not. Consider training your ears and practice.

I've used Jammer Pro - and from melody line you could get suggestions for chord progression and full arrangement. Not satisfied with that - press button again and another suggestion.

I used it 15 years or so ago, and was only midi then - maybe different today, don't know.
But synced through MTC to a daw with virtual midi ports and when done moved midi to daw.

Do you realize that there are countless ways to "harmonize" a melody, right? Is like asking people to help you choose what to dress. What about actually "learn" how to do it, and the basic fundaments of music?

Learning all that is fine if you want to express something personal, but most of us just want to trace the dots. Music isn't art you know, it's a lifestyle accessory. Next you'll start blabbing about learning to play an instrument, as if you'd never heard about sampling and loops.

I'm not sure if you are being sarcastic or are serious about what you wrote. I'm hoping for sarcasm

Why would you want to learn technique when there's a plugin for it?

Assuming it's a MIDI track...
Duplicate, transpose by 4 semitones, correct the notes that sound "wrong".
If it's audio...
Do the same thing, but with your audio editor.
