## What is Beatly?

With Beatly you can generate unlimited amount of 100% original looped music in rap/lo-fi/dance/chiptune/cinematic genre.

Free version features:

- generating unlimited amount of beats in 2 bar loops
- 5 genres (rap, lo-fi, dance, chiptune, cinematic)
- key selection
- changing and locking the tempo (BPM)
- recording the output to WAV
- saving unlimited amount of generated beats
- sharing the beat with Beatly Pro app

Make sure you check out the Pro version, which brings many extra features!

Who is Beatly for:

• composers/producers seeking for quick inspiration or a fresh material to work with
• artists/singers in need of unique rap/rnb beats on demand, e.g. for flow practicing
• developers, film-makers, digital content creators, who need to use free and original music in any kind of multimedia
• pretty much anyone interested in generative art and nonmainstream music

How it works:

Beatly randomly chooses set of instruments and creates 2 unique bars of looped instrumental music (8 beats). Tempo is chosen automatically, however it can be simply changed. All notes are picked by the algorithm. Each beat can be easily saved and loaded later again. 

Run app, tap the play button. It is that simple. Music will be different each time you hit the reload button. Once you find the right tune for you, simply save it for later or record it to WAV.

How do I export my beats to Beatly Pro?

In free Beatly app, navigate to menu, tap Share beat, select Beatly Pro, open Beatly Pro - you're done, beat has been imported! :)

### 5/5 — It’s great!

*2022-12-22*

Couldn’t be any easier:  just press play and get a random and pleasant-sounding beat!  Save the ones you like!  I may upgrade to Pro to support the developer.

### 3/5 — No Landscape Orientation?

*2021-05-20*

I am an iPad user who would appreciate landscape orientation while using this groovy app. The generated beats can be a little rocky at times, but I can see that with a little more tweaking, this could be a keeper. (I found a few jewels in there!)

Also, an UNDO button would also be great to return back to a previously generated beat.

### 5/5 — Boooyaayayah!

*2021-02-28*

Very first song was an instant keeper and a welcome expansion to my arsenal. Hope to see more features out of this but a solid start.

### 5/5 — Useful little app

*2021-02-14*

Genuinely useful little app - capable of generating some cool beats and rhythms with interesting arrangements. Really interested in how the pro version progresses as midi / audio out would be incredibly useful...👍

### 3/5 — Very cool

*2021-01-31*

Is there an email address that I can write you to to make some suggestions? This last update has changed something and in my opinion has not been necessarily for the best. The drum parts seem even more “nervous/sputtery” than before. When I compared it to some of the saved motifs from the earlier version, the update seems to have less musical sensibilities. Anyway, I think I would have some suggestions for you and some of the other aspects if I could reach you directly. Thanks, Scott

**Developer response:** Hey Scott, I will be happy to hear your suggestions. Drop me a message via Twitter, if you don't mind! @AntoninCharvat (link in the Beatly AppStore page as well).
I think I know what you mean by the "nervous" drum parts and I am working on it. Currently the algorithm doesn't prefer any patterns and some of the most "disruptive" are used way too often. I'm gonna improve it, no worries! :)
Thank you again!
Antonin

### 5/5 — Neutral1

*2021-01-19*

Just been using this app and it is capable of generating some really good music.
Because it is quick to make quite a lot of music it would be useful if when you save, it would automatically save it with the date and add another number to it to make it unique, which would be incremented every time you saved. It would be good to still be able to name them yourself though if you wanted to change them.

Would it be possible to allow audio/midi export. If it is possible would the music generated by the app be royalty free.
Audiobus would be good.

Great app but would be even better if you could get the audio out.

**Developer response:** Hello, thanks for your review!
The automatic beats numbering has been just implemented, thanks to your suggestion.
Audio and MIDI export is already implemented in Pro version (still in heavy development) alongside with some other extra features.
If you might be interested in free beta test of Pro version, get in touch with me via my Twitter account :)
Thanks again!
Antonin
