## What is Autony?

AUv3 Midi sequence generator which generates musical evolving sequences  that you can further automate or modulate via midi. 

A clever algorithm creates a musical sequence which is output as a midi signal which can be used to drive a software synthesiser or a hardware device. Various settings allow the sequence to be constrained to scales and chords, transposed on the fly and also allowed to gently mutate giving an evolving sequence. 

All the controls can be modulated or automated via midi. 

Needs a AU host like AUM and generates no sound on its own.

"My solution has been to make the equipment unreliable in various ways." - Brian Eno

## Key features

- Generates evolving musical sequences
- MIDI output for synths and hardware
- Constrain sequences to scales and chords
- On-the-fly transposition
- Sequence mutation for dynamic evolution

### 5/5 — 5 Stars!!

*2024-12-26*

One of the most important midi generators in my workflow. You can get instant Brian Eno or Aphex Twin with this auv3 and any auv3 synth and bit mangler or GlitchCore, heck- audiomoderns free plugins with this and any synth is fundamental in my transitions. I love this app, and you will too.

### 5/5 — Now works in AUM

*2022-06-02*

EDIT:
Works in AUM as expected after the latest patch. Very cute midi melody generator. Good degree of controllability. Fun 

Old:
As in the title. Tried loading it in midi as well as audio channel in AUM but there is no option to select any midi destinations for that plugin.

### 5/5 — Easiest of the 3

*2020-07-22*

I love them all and maybe the poly is better but i get insane results from whatever limits this has. I pick a mono scale but then lil chord progressions per say in mono its my go to app for trying synths too.

### 4/5 — Simple and effective!

*2020-04-16*

This is one of my favorite go to apps, but since the last update there are no longer any labels or info on the "knobs". Lil help?

### 1/5 — Bad update.

*2020-04-13, version 1.28*

Not seem to be working at all.

### 2/5 — Will not play nice with GarageBand

*2020-02-08*

Please update or simply let us know if Autony will ever work with GarageBand?
I really want to up your app to 5 stars.
Thanks

### 3/5 — Generate button does not work on iPhone AUM in vertical mode and no way to reach the support

*2020-01-27*

As the title says, the generate button does not work in vertical mode in AUM on iPhone  and clicking on App Support only leads me to a webpage where there is no eMail address or whatever way to reach the support.

### 2/5 — Unreliable

*2019-06-06, version 1.27*

I bought this and Cality at the same time. Neither of them load up as choices in AUM or Audiobus. No contact information for developer (unless you have Twitter). I have asked for a refund.

### 5/5 — Now works as advertised

*2019-05-04*

I bought this a while back and the controls were so buggy I couldn’t use the app. Developer has updated and it now works great. Really useful AU. I’ll probably pick up Cality now also.

No, Autony does not produce sound directly. It functions as an AUv3 MIDI generator, meaning it outputs MIDI signals that need to be routed to a software synthesizer or hardware device within a host application like AUM.

### What is the price of Autony?

Autony is a paid application priced at $3.99. This one-time purchase grants you access to all its features for generating MIDI sequences.

### What devices is Autony compatible with?

Autony is supported on iPhone, iPad, and iPod. It requires a host application that supports AUv3 plugins to function.

### How often is Autony updated?

The latest version of Autony is 1.32, last updated on June 2, 2022. While specific update frequency isn't detailed, this indicates ongoing development and support.

### Can I use Autony with my existing music software?

Yes, Autony is designed to work with AUv3 hosts, such as AUM. This allows you to integrate its MIDI sequence generation capabilities into your existing iOS music production workflow.

### What makes Autony's sequences 'evolving'?

The 'evolving' nature of Autony's sequences comes from its clever algorithm that can gently mutate patterns over time. This means the generated MIDI output is not static but changes and develops, offering a more organic musical experience.
