What MotifPilot does—and what it doesn’t.

MotifPilot is a local-first MIDI sketching app that creates editable chord, bass, arp, and melody tracks from clear musical controls.

MotifPilot is available now on the App Store for iPhone and iPad.

MotifPilot 1.1.0 gives you deeper control over how a four-track MIDI starter takes shape. Choose a generation style and density, then adjust chord richness, humanize, and swing. Shape each part with pattern, density, and register controls, with clear automatic style defaults and one-tap reset. Get more coherent chord, bass, arp, and melody relationships from the upgraded local music library and generation engine. Keep in-progress choices intact while saved projects load or a new idea finishes generating. Enjoy more reliable starter recovery, preview playback, harmony changes, and overall workflow polish.

MotifPilot generates 4, 8, or 16 bar MIDI sketches with chords, bass, arp, and melody. You can set genre, mood, key, scale, tempo, complexity, humanize, and swing, then preview, vary, edit, and export the result.

MotifPilot is built for electronic music producers, songwriter-producers, and mobile producers who want editable MIDI before arranging, sound design, mixing, or final production work.

Library keeps up to 20 projects and 30 export records on the device. You can browse projects and exports, search, filter by tags, rename items, share or export again, delete items, batch-delete projects or exports, and batch-share exports.

No. MotifPilot is not a chat-style AI prompt-to-MIDI service. It uses clear musical controls and a local generation workflow so you can steer the result without writing prompts.

MotifPilot exports a combined starter and active-track MIDI files through the iOS share sheet, so you can move material through Files, AirDrop, or another app in your production setup.

An export can include a combined starter MIDI file, individual MIDI files for active chord, bass, arp, and melody tracks, a plain-text DAW import guide, and a ZIP package.

MotifPilot exports Standard MIDI through the iOS share sheet, which is meant for DAW handoff. The exact import behavior depends on the DAW, plugin, device, and destination you choose.

No. MotifPilot creates editable MIDI material. You still choose sounds, arrange, mix, and finish the track in your production tools.
