MotifPilot MIDI Generator vs PolyrhythmLab

MotifPilot helps producers get past the blank DAW session with editable MIDI starters built from clear musical controls. Choose a style preset, key, scale, tempo, bar count, density, harmonic detail, humanize, and swing. MotifPilot's local, rule-driven engine builds a four-part MIDI sketch with chords, bass, arp, and melody. Preview the idea, shape the parts, try another variation, then export Standard MIDI files to share or import into a compatible DAW. Built for electronic music producers, songwriter-producers, and mobile producers: - Generate 4, 8, or 16 bar MIDI sketch starters from clear musical controls. - Work in 12 keys across all pitch classes. - Start from seven style presets: pop, house, R&B, cinematic, and three beta Trap directions. - Use Next idea to create another sketch from the same setup. - Replace a selected chord or explore chord and progression suggestions. - Develop melodies with answering phrases, breathing space, and style-specific rhythms alongside coordinated accompaniment. - Preview the same note pitches, timing, velocities, and lengths that MIDI export uses, with style-specific instruments and mix. Sounds in your DAW depend on its instruments. - Focus tracks with mute and solo controls. - Push variations such as simpler, darker, jazzier, more emotional, more sparse, more rhythmic, tension, and resolve. - Edit focused tracks with octave, transpose, quantize, velocity, duration, note movement, add, and delete controls. - Undo and redo edits while exploring. - Select individual notes from an expandable list in the track editor. - Export one combined starter MIDI file, individual MIDI files for active tracks, a plain-text DAW import guide, and a ZIP package through the iOS share sheet. - Keep saved projects and export records in the local Library on this device. - Open saved projects in Studio, export projects again, rename, tag, search, and delete local items. Batch-delete projects or exports, and batch-share exports. - Detect missing export files. Regenerate an export when its linked local project is still saved, or rebuild its ZIP archive when the original package files remain. - Recover unlisted completed exports when their local package files and recovery record remain. Review and confirm cleanup of incomplete exports in Library. - Choose system, light, or dark appearance in Settings. MotifPilot is not a full DAW, audio generator, one-click song maker, giant MIDI pack browser, direct DAW integration service, or AI prompt-to-MIDI service. It is a local-first MIDI sketching tool for creating editable musical starting points that you can import into a compatible DAW.

PolyrhythmLab is a groovebox built around true polyrhythms: every sound layer gets its own step count, pulse count, and rotation, so layers of different lengths interlock and drift in and out of phase instead of locking to one shared grid. NEW IN 2.0 — AUv3 PLUGIN Use PolyrhythmLab as a real instrument inside GarageBand, Logic, AUM, and any other AU-compatible host. Four independent polyrhythmic layers, each exposed as automatable parameters, real MIDI output so your performance actually records as a MIDI region, and its own compact control panel with a live pattern wheel, a randomizer, and optional sync to your session's tempo. NEW IN 2.0 — LIVE MIDI OUTPUT Send a real Note On/Off for every layer hit straight from the main app — one MIDI channel per layer, over a virtual MIDI connection — to drive another synth, app, or piece of hardware in real time, not just sync tempo. NEW IN 2.0 — CAST VJ MIX Send the VJ Mix visuals to a TV or projector over AirPlay or a wired adapter, while your device keeps the full set of live controls. Save and reload VJ Mix setups — visual styles, effects, camera moves, and their LFOs — as named presets, same as patterns. GROOVEBOX • Euclidean-style rhythm engine — set steps, pulses, and rotation per layer • Drums, glitch/textural one-shots, classic synth voices (piano, bell, pad, bass), and melodic synth patches • Per-layer filter, reverb, delay, pitch, and LFOs on every parameter • Randomize engine biased toward musical, playable combinations • Chord modes, scales, and modal note selection for melodic layers SONG MODE Arrange your saved patterns into sections and chain them into a full song. VJ MIX A live visual performance surface: blend two audio-reactive visualizations, layer on real-time color and shader effects — RGB split, kaleidoscope, pixelate, glow, trail — and a 3D camera with zoom, pan, orbit, and tilt, each with its own LFO. Randomize the whole look by hand, or hand it to an autonomous "robot" that keeps remixing itself. Record the performance in real time via ReplayKit, or export a styled video clip. PRESETS Save and reload both groovebox patterns and VJ Mix setups as named presets. EXPORT Render your patterns and songs to audio, or export them as MIDI. No account, no ads, no analytics. Everything is stored locally on your device.
