Simply tap the red button and send the generated music to your Email account or Google Drive in the following formats:

- MP3 - for listening or mixing
- MIDI - for using with DAW software
- PDF - for reading and playing sheet music

Please use earphones/speakers for best results. Also, this app has NO ADS!

==========FREE FUNCTIONALITY==========
- endless source of musical compositions and ideas - keep tapping the red button until you hear something you like
- use the Setup Wizard to adjust duration, tempo and style of song
- use Track Editor to have tracks re-written until you love the song
- select melody/harmony/bassline/percusion/effects tracks to be generated separately or together as a song
- use Like/Dislike buttons whilst listening to rewrite sections of a song
- select the number of instrumental layers in each track (4 max, 8 for percussion)
- select key/tempo/soundset/style
- select structure of song using chorus/verse/middle-eight sections
- name and then store up to 5 generated songs on your device for later listening

==========IN-APP PURCHASES==========
- Downloads Pack (one-off payment) - send MP3, MIDI and PDF (sheet music) files of the generated music to your Email account or Google Drive.
- Library Expansion (one-off payment) - increase the number of slots in your device's M-Gen library so you can store more songs for later listening
- 'License Pack' (subscription) - License to use M-Gen music in your own work and distribute it on a commercial basis

M-Gen ("Music Generator") creates random yet tonally and rhythmically integrated songs based on a number of settings you can play with in the Setup section together with user feedback on previous songs.

You can use the Setup Wizard in the Play tab to quickly and easily configure duration, speed and style of the song.

During playback, you can tap like/dislike buttons. Disliked sections can be rewritten by M-gen, keeping the rest of the song intact. Liked sections will provide M-Gen with clues as to how you like your songs to sound that will be used when composing future songs or song parts.

The algorithms used by M-Gen are always evolving and improving to include more possible musical structures and methods of composition.

The app has no advertising and there's no need to set up an account. Simple!

==========MIDI TRACKS==========
In your DAW, the following generated tracks use these MIDI track numbers:

Percussion - 10
Bassline - 11
Harmony - 12
Melody - 13
Effects - 14

Enjoy!!!
