• 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.
