These instruments are NOT sample libraries. Unlike sampling, which uses recordings to replicate the sound of an instrument, physical modeling doesn’t generate a sound as such but creates the conditions for the system to create it according to an external input (like someone playing on a keyboard).

Medly takes a new approach to the way music is made, letting both seasoned and new musicians make epic music. Just pick your instruments, draw notes, record & sing, and drag & drop one of over 700 loops or samples.
| New version | 6.0 |
| Old version | 5.8.9 |
| Release Notes | The wait is over. Medly 6 has arrived! With a stunning new design and advanced features, Medly 6 is the biggest update we’ve ever released! REFRESHED DESIGN Medly 6 brings a new design language with translucent materials throughout the app. Your workspace will now feel larger than ever before, and without you having to buy a new device! A MAGIC TOUCH TO NOTES Gestures have been completely redesigned within the note editor. Scroll with one finger, tap to add a note, and double tap and draw to add a long note. The first time you open the note editor, you’ll be presented with a tutorial that will guide you through the latest gestures. DOUBLE DOWN ON AUDIO Alongside a refreshed look, you can now have 2 audio clips within a single Section. Members will also be excited to hear that they can now record audio for up to 30 seconds! POINT PERFECT AUTOMATION A rethought automation editor now provides a slick new interface and more powerful tools. Snap between points or the automation grid to achieve point perfect precision, and use the selection tool to edit multiple automation points together. Then open the effect picker to quickly see the automation graphs of all effects within a Section. FIND YOUR SOUND With over 300 instruments and thousands of loops and samples, Medly 6 delivers new ways to discover sounds. You can favorite instruments and loops, browse them by their type, and check out Medly’s new Artist profiles to view all their lyrics. INFINITE COLUMNS You no longer have to press the pesky “+” button to add a new column to your song. Just scroll, and new columns will be there for you to use. Members will have access to 999 columns, and free users will be able to use 99 columns. NOTABLE CHANGES - Updated album design, with more prominent titles and a stronger emphasis on artwork. - Some album artworks have been retired and can no longer be selected. If you’re currently using artworks that have been retired, they will remain on those albums until they are changed. - Added new Member Exclusive album artworks. - Updated Template Picker to make it easier to select blank songs or discover new songs from packs. - Updated all pack icons to use colors. - Dropped support for Audiobus. CHANGES TO OUR PACK RELEASE SCHEDULE With our existing library of nearly 3000 sounds, alongside all the new features released as part of Medly 6, we plan to change our pack release schedule to better fit our priorities moving forward. We love releasing packs and have a dedicated member on our team who works full-time to develop new instruments, loops, and songs. But the monthly pack release schedule takes away a lot of time from developing great new features. We tried to resolve this by doing a new pack one month and updating an existing pack the next, but the updates took just as much time as new packs. So we feel it’s important to revise our release schedule once again to strike a balance between releasing new exciting packs and new features. Moving forward, we plan to release new sounds on an irregular schedule, aiming for 3-6 packs per calendar year. Though that may not seem like many packs, you should expect feature updates to be released more frequently with Medly 6. This change will benefit both Members and free users, and we believe it’s the right decision to make Medly the best music-making app possible. |

Wotja X is a new cross-platform interface for the 'Wotja Generative Music System'.
| New version | 21.9.2 |
| Old version | 21.9.1 |
| Release Notes | IMPROVED: "Document screen" - button text on "Search..." buttons now indicates the selected items, where each one is represented by a number, and the search name if any is also shown if used e.g. "Show..." if nothing set, "Show: 1, 2", "Show: 1; abc" etc. IMPROVED: "Document screen > Albums" - added the missing "Search..." option to the "Show" menu; this is distinct to the Mixes "Search..." as both search fields are treated independently. IMPROVED: "Document screen" - Selected sort order is now shown in the "Sort..." buttons, e.g. "Sort: A-Z". IMPROVED: When a Rule preset (Standard Value) is selected from the pop-up list and the Rule name is different to the current name then give the user the option to automatically rename the rule to match; this option is not available for the Mix Default rule. IMPROVED: Do not allow Rules to be renamed such that they start with "Use" as that can be confusing. FIXED: Issue where Rules didn't always flash having returned from Rule Editor view. P.S. Enjoying Wotja? Please do leave or update a positive review and rating - your love means so much to us! Thank you :). |
