Tune Maker is a music composition tool which helps you to understand the basic components of music and to quickly begin creating your own compositions. Tune Maker can be used by musicians of all levels. Beginners can start using basic chords, rhythms and melodies. Professional musicians will appreciate the ability to construct very advanced chords, using non-standard time signatures, adding multiple melody lines, MIDI export, recording chords and notes from a MIDI keyboard and many more. FEEL THE BEAT There is not any strict sequence of steps in music composition, but if you are just starting, you can begin by adding some drums to your tune. It will create a basic structure of the future composition. HEAR THE MELODY Try to hear a melody in your head or sing it first. Then start drawing it on the melody track canvas. Hit Play and listen while you are working on it. To make it more dynamic, use the velocity tool to adjust volume of individual notes. HARMONIZE In music, the process of adding chords to a melody is called harmonization. Tune Maker allows you to construct almost any possible chord and it will help you to find chords that mach your melody. ANIMATE CHORDS WITH AN ARPEGGIO In Tune Maker, an arpeggio track is a rhythmic pattern for your chord progression. You can think of it as a right hand pattern when you play on a guitar. It can be like strumming, bass & chord or a single-note pattern. Tune Maker automatically maps this pattern to your chords and produces appropriate note pitches. RECORD YOUR PERFORMANCE Enable recording and start playing on the note editor's scale buttons or use your MIDI controller connected over USB of Bluetooth. You can also record chords with your MIDI keyboard. Tune Maker will recognize chords you are playing and insert them to the chord track. CHOOSE YOUR INSTRUMENTS Select an instrument from the built-in collection. Play CoreMIDI-compatible apps. Or plug in any Audio Unit Extension Instrument available on the App Store. BUILD A COMPLETE SONG You can duplicate an existing section and add some alterations to it or you can just repeat a section. For example, if you have some kind of chorus section in your song, you could repeat it in multiple places inside your song. And if you decide to modify this section later, the changes will affect all the repeats. ORGANIZE, SHARE & EXPORT Tune Maker is a Document Based App. This allows you to organize your projects in the way that works best for you. You can store your projects on a local folder, on iCloud Drive, or on any other supported cloud storage like DropBox or GoogleDrive. You can share easily using AirDrop, Mail or Message. You can also export your project as a MIDI file if you want to continue working on it in a DAW like Ableton or GarageBand.

    Poor documentation. Useless.
    A blank sheet of paper would be more helpful. A very poor interface. Rudimentary and clunky.

    Super Underrated
    This APP is AMAZING. My favorite for sketching out super quick grooves. The way it host AUs is amazing. This developer is among the very creme de la creme on iOS. I suspect a great many people are missing out on this app. Show more

    Not the tool I thought it would be
    I wish I could have demo’d this. I would not have bought it. Wasted my $. I was hoping the app allowed for playing chords underneath the track and compose melodies over it. Show more

    Awesome tool
    Love this for on the go / road composing but please add a audio export option.

    Very clever compositional tool
    This is a nifty resource for song writers and designed well to write on the go as the iPhone experience is very good. Gave me some different angles to work in a tune I was struggling with--I'll very often refine a tune elsewhere but this is a great sketching tool for me. Show more

    Very good first impressions
    Just starting to dig in, so far so good! will come back and adjust accordingly but I am giving 4 stars off the bat based on a super clean and straightforward User Manual and the facet the developer is attempting to address a big need for lots of iOS musicians which is having a stable way to compose and record and structure full songs. It’s easy to either get stuck making loops that never go anywhere or get lost in frustration trying to use one of the major DAWs. So far I’m really hopeful this could be a great balance of the two and so far the UI looks simple and beautiful. Still a new app so I will update if need be but I wanted to support a developer who seems to be trying and the one review about it just being a file share screen is wrong and should not be the first thing people see here. Cheers Show more

    Not sure what this app because it only opens my file folder.
