Beatly Pro2.1 - App Store

Beatly Pro is a generative music studio for moments when you want to create but need a spark. Generate rap-inspired, lo-fi, chiptune, cinematic, and dance instrumentals, then shape them into your own tracks with hands-on arranging, editing, mixing, and export tools.

Beatly Pro is not an AI music generator. It creates music on your device from curated patterns, musical rules, and controlled randomness-no prompts, cloud generation, or trained AI models.

Style-aware melodies follow the harmony and develop across the arrangement, while varied instrument levels and effects give each new track its own balance and character.

Whether you need quick inspiration, a backing track, or fresh material for a larger production, Beatly Pro takes you from the first generated idea to a finished track.

WHO IS BEATLY PRO FOR?

Beatly Pro is made for producers, composers, singers, artists, filmmakers, game developers, content creators, practicing musicians, and anyone curious about generative music.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

Open Beatly Pro and tap Play. The app chooses instruments, tempo, key, and musical patterns, then creates up to 8 bars-32 beats-of instrumental music. Tap Next whenever you want a different idea.

Every generated track is yours to shape. Rearrange or repeat its bars, change the tempo or key, swap sounds, adjust the mix, regenerate one instrument, or open the piano roll and edit the notes yourself.

Choose from five styles: Default, Lo-fi, Chiptune, Cinematic, and Dance. Default is well suited to rap-inspired beats, while every style brings its own instruments and musical character. For more control, use the chord progression builder to define the harmony, or create custom bar patterns that Beatly can use in future tracks. You can also change the key or chord of any beat, and Beatly will transpose its notes to match.

When your track is ready, save it, export it as MIDI, record your performance, render a WAV mix, create stems, or export a seamless loop for use in another project. You can also connect Beatly Pro to your studio through MIDI, Audiobus, or Ableton Link.

CAN I USE MY OWN SOUNDS?

Yes. Record a sample inside the app, import a WAV or AIFF file, or load an SF2 SoundFont bank. Samples tuned to C will usually give you the most predictable melodic results.

Enjoying Beatly Pro? A rating or review on the App Store means a great deal. You can also support future development through the optional tip jar.

Version History Beatly Pro 2.1 makes generated tracks more musical, varied, and reliable.

• New style-aware melody generation creates stronger themes that follow the harmony and evolve across your arrangement.

• New tracks use more varied instrument levels and style-aware effects, giving each generation a more distinctive mix.

• Playback is smoother and more responsive, with the progress animation staying in sync during playback and bar changes.

• Piano-roll keyboard auditioning now works correctly after stopping playback, with more natural note releases.

• Improved recording stability, MIDI note handling, Ableton Link timing, Audiobus reconnection, and audio-route handling.

• Added master output protection to reduce clipping and smooth abrupt audio transitions.

• Additional performance improvements and stability fixes throughout the playback engine. 2.1 13h ago Welcome to Beatly Pro 2.0—the biggest update in the app’s history. This is much more than a fresh coat of paint: the way Beatly creates, edits, mixes, and presents music has been improved throughout.

MORE MUSICAL RESULTS

Generation now has a stronger sense of musical direction. New style-specific phrase libraries bring more variety and character, while improved chord voicing, phrase-ending cadences, and recurring melodic themes help tracks feel more connected from bar to bar. Bass patterns have also been refined to leave more room for the rest of the arrangement.

NEW WAYS TO SHAPE YOUR SOUND

Reverb, delay, and compression are now available on every mixer channel alongside the existing filter, resonance, and decimation controls. The redesigned mixer gives each instrument clearer controls, responsive level feedback, and a more focused workflow.

A COMPLETELY REDESIGNED WORKSPACE

The new dashboard reacts to your music with real-time audio visuals and clearer playback progress. The mixer, piano roll, track settings, chord progression builder, sample recorder and editor, pattern library, MIDI importer, MIDI exporter, and audio renderer have all been redesigned to feel consistent and easier to navigate.

FASTER, SAFER EDITING

The piano roll has been rebuilt for more precise note editing, clearer timing, and more reliable undo. Continuous edits now stay focused on the bar you are working on, so you can hear changes in context without losing your place. Pattern editing and MIDI import are also clearer and more direct.

BETTER ON IPAD AND WITH VOICEOVER

Layouts have been improved across iPhone and iPad, including landscape use on iPad. Contextual help now explains controls where you need it, and VoiceOver support has been expanded throughout the mixer, piano roll, settings, import, and export workflows.

A NEW LOOK—AND A LOT OF POLISH

Beatly Pro has a new app icon, refreshed launch experience, smoother transitions, clearer controls, and many stability and audio-session improvements behind the scenes.

STILL GENERATIVE. NEVER GENERATIVE AI.

Beatly Pro creates music directly on your device using curated musical patterns, music theory, and controlled randomness. There are no prompts, no cloud generation, and no trained AI models—just a purpose-built musical engine designed to give you ideas that remain yours to shape.
