I've experimented with
LMMS over the past year or so, and I finally stumbled upon a "technique" for making a melody that actually sounds half decent.
Simple melody v0.1:

Is it really that bad?!?!?!
Not too terrible, but its bad.
Its pretty off at some points.
However, this isn't your fault. LMMS just sucks (I love the UI tho).
LMMS looks somewhat similar to Adobe Audition. Have you tried the latter?
Is your melody great? No. Is It terrible? No. Does It need Improvement? Yes. You know what to do.
I look forward to your next release.
