It would be great if [ILLUGEN](https://www.waves.com/illugen?utm_source=forum) 2.0 could accept uploaded loops or samples and generate new sounds in the same style. It currently only works from text prompts, so being able to feed it an existing loop and ask it to create something similar from scratch would open up a lot of creative workflows.

I thought this would be a great idea myself!!

Or beyond that, dropping in a whole track and asking it to come with something similar to one of the elements in other. Of course, it would need to have pretty good stem separation to be able to identify individual elements in a track.
