One sustained note in our current song sketch has a scratchy edge. The rest of the phrase works for the melody, and my writing partner wants to keep its timing. Regenerating the whole passage seems like a large change. We can try another generation of the same musical passage, but that might also replace the little pause that makes the line convincing. I am gathering suggestions about ai music artifact removal as one possible route, without assuming it can rescue this particular note. For now we only need a useful songwriting sketch. There is no release deadline attached. Would you first shorten the note, replace that phrase, or test a conservative cleanup on a copy? The main concern is preserving the expressive detail. A small imperfection may be acceptable here. Where would you draw the line and replace the phrase?
