Description

• Let the musical muses of Piano Motifs inspire your device to generate some original and beautiful motifs (short melodies). • Selected as the Favorite MIDI Generator App two years in a row by the iOS Music Production community! • Check out the music that Piano Motifs can generate at: https://soundcloud.com/azul-3d • For Piano Motifs demos and tutorials: https://www.youtube.com/@azul3dapps • Create original, catchy and inspiring MIDI loops at the touch of a button. • No musical knowledge or skill is necessary to create completely new and original music. Piano Motifs is the simplest way to generate your own music. • There are no preset melodies. Melodies are generated algorithmically. The melodic possibilities are endless. • Set the music tempo or select the key, scale, time signature, octave range, number of bars, melody constraints, melody note frequency and accompaniment style for your motif. • Option to generate Swing rhythm for the melody, either Shuffle or Hard Swing. • Program your own chord progressions and let Piano Motifs generate an accompaniment and melody for them. • Generation of a 3rd track with the option of it being a sustained chord per bar, sustained chord per multiple bars or a drone tone. Ideal for strings, choirs or pads. • Arrange your motifs to create longer musical pieces. • Choose from 24 different kinds of accompaniment styles. • Define your arpeggio accompaniments. • Choose from 13 different kinds of melody constraints. • Major, Minor, Lydian, Mixolydian, Dorian, Phrygian, Harmonic Minor and Phrygian Dominant scales supported. • Loop your motifs • Save your motifs as MIDI files so you can edit them or add more instrumentation to them on your favorite Digital Audio Workstation (DAW). • Many options when exporting a MIDI file or one MIDI file per track. When exporting a MIDI file, export with a third MIDI track with a sustained chord per bar, sustained chord per multiple bars or a drone tone (Ideal for synth pads, strings or chorus). • Share audio or MIDI through iMessages, e-mail, Whatsapp or AirDrop. Save audio, MIDI or .motif file to your device's file system. • AUv3 MIDI Plug-In In-App Purchase: Incorporate Piano Motifs seemlessly in your workflow by instantiating it once or multiple times in an app that can host AUv3 MIDI Plug-Ins, for example: AUM, AudioBus 3, ApeMatrix, Drambo or EG Nodes. Please note that Piano Motifs as an AUv3 MIDI Plug-In will not play any sound by itself, it generates MIDI that can be routed to other apps and effects instantiated in a host. IMPORTANT: GarageBand does not support MIDI only Plug-ins, so the AUv3 will not work in GarageBand. • AUv3 MIDI Plug-In features include: - Ability to play Piano Motifs in sync and out of sync with the host. - State saving functionality. - Independent programmable MIDI channels for melody, accompaniment, optional third track, and optional melody harmony track. - Interactive octave shifting for melody and accompaniment. - Controllable Melody and Accompaniment Velocity parameters. - Start Delay and BPM multiple with respect to the Host in Sync mode. • MIDI Out In-App Purchase:  Play the music generated by Piano Motifs on your favorite synthesizer, DAW, a connect/route/mix app like AUM, or any app that has Virtual MIDI Destination (MIDI In) capabilities. IMPORTANT: Before purchasing please be aware that Piano Motifs DOES NOT OFFER Ableton Link functionality. • MIDI Out In-App Purchase features include:  - Programmable delay for the start of a motif - Independent programmable MIDI channels for melody, accompaniment and an optional third track - MIDI Out settings are saved between Piano Motifs sessions • Piano Motifs chooses a music key from many different scales and an accompaniment from a varied set of accompaniments. Piano Motifs then uses its musical theory algorithms to overlay a melody in the chosen key and accompaniment. Piano Motifs are short, they go from around 16 seconds to around 30 seconds.

    I’m not really a piano player but can sure get some gold out of this app. Watch the tutorials and learn the countless features included, you can do more that you might expect. I also appreciate the regular updates throughout the years, this app has really grown into something wonderful!

    Seriously one of the only serious, and useable melody generators out there. Easy to get good results fast, but if you know just a little about music you can get beautiful stuff out of it. Also uncommonly good support. Well worth your money.
  • Absolute Sleeper of an App

    I’ve always wanted to make music, but most of music theory remains a deep mystery to me. This is where Piano Motifs comes in- it’s the collaborator that gets you started and nudges you in the right direction. It’s the mentor that never runs out of ideas. Piano Motifs gives you themes that you can use as-is, but it also lets you export them as midi to be modified or expanded upon in any midi editor. Options run deep as to how you want motifs generated, and you can use the in-app arranger to, well, arrange them into complete songs. You owe it to yourself to try it. And read the manual- there’s far more here than is immediately obvious.

    For my money Best in its class. Outperforms all others I’ve tried. Largely intuitive. On my wish list are more time signatures and scales/modes. But even as is, it provides hours and hours of usable material. Oh, one more wish - ability to add greater variety of sections into an arrangement. And the ability to control volume for each channel. Addendum to wish list - ability to choose different instruments for each channel with selection going beyond Piano & guitar to strings, horns, woodwinds, percussion, voices w/o having to deal with MIDI (which I gave up on). Not sure how AUv3 would work here, but after my MIDI experience, I can’t see justifying added cost. But, again, on its own Piano Motifs is a must-have tool to get the creative juices flowing.

    Finally an motif generator that actually sounds like music. Super easy to get started — just hit play — buts lots of customization if you want. A superb tool for composers and song writers of all genres. Kudos to the dev!
  • Amazing 😻

    But it's not showing up as an AUM in Garage Band even though I've purchased this feature.
