Beatly is for producers and composers looking for a quick starting point, singers who need a beat for writing or rehearsal, and musicians who want an accompaniment for practice. It also suits game developers, filmmakers and other creators looking for distinctive instrumental ideas, as well as anyone curious about generative music without AI. HOW DOES IT WORK? Open Beatly and tap Play. The app chooses a set of instruments, tempo, key and musical patterns, then creates an original instrumental loop. Open the mixer to extend and arrange it across up to four bars. Tap Next to generate another idea. Use Previous and Next to revisit up to five recent beats from your current session. Choose a style to change the musical character of the next track. You can select a specific key or leave it set to Random, then adjust the tempo at any time. Open the mixer preview to watch each instrument during playback and build an arrangement of up to four bars. Add, remove or reorder bars, then loop an individual bar when you want to focus on it. Tap an instrument to open its piano roll. You can follow playback, zoom, scroll and play the keyboard while viewing the generated notes. When you find an idea you like, save it and return to it later, share the project, or record the live playback as a WAV file. WANT TO TAKE THE TRACK FURTHER? Beatly Pro is a separate app available as a one-time purchase. It adds full mixer controls, piano-roll editing, arrangements of up to eight bars, effects, custom samples and SoundFonts, chord progressions, MIDI and audio export, and studio connections through Ableton Link, Core MIDI and Audiobus. To continue a Free Beatly project in Beatly Pro, save the track, choose Share Beat from the menu, select Beatly Pro in the share sheet, and then open Beatly Pro. The project will be imported automatically. If you enjoy Beatly, a rating or review on the App Store means a great deal. Questions or ideas? Send us a message.
