Draw a melody or a beat and hear something genuinely new every time - not a pre-made pack, a fresh procedural generation each draw.

Layer a melody with a beat into a Combo, then arrange several drawn pieces into a full song. REAL INSTRUMENTS, ANY SOUND - All 128 General MIDI instruments, played with real sampled sound. - Build your own custom sound three ways: a slider editor, humming into the mic, or a photo's colours. RECORD YOUR OWN VOICE - Play a saved song while recording vocals over it - MeloDraw mixes them together automatically. - Multiple people's takes can sit on the same song, each tagged with who sang it. YOUR MUSIC, ON YOUR DEVICE - No account, no server, no internet connection at all - MeloDraw has no networking code. - Back up your whole library to a file and restore it on a new device whenever you like. - Turn on App Lock to keep your saved music behind Face ID or Touch ID.
