What is Fugue Machine? Fugue Machine is a music sequencer app that is inspired by composition techniques used in Baroque music and Serialism. It allows users to manipulate a melody's speed, direction, and pitch, as well as play multiple variations of the melody simultaneously. The app is designed to reimagine the piano roll, which is one of the most fundamental building blocks of all music sequencers. Fugue Machine is the world's first multi-playhead piano roll that lets users create a music sequence and play it back with up to four playheads at once.

Easily a 6 stars out of 5

By Conticreative (Pcmac user)

This is a brilliant instrument. Yes it’s a sequencer, but I see it more as a instrument and a composing tool. The only wish I have is the ability to see the notes names somewhere. It’s easy to get lost playing it and hit a less than pleasant combo. That would go away in part if we could see the notes names or the chords/scales someplace in the interface. Another wish would be the ability to play patterns manually, as opposed to having to clutter the screen with not just a menu, but a submenu. Having 4 to 8 buttons to assign patterns to would rock. Literally. Even if it means squeezing the interface a bit. Maybe an overlay? I am already doing this using the submenu, but it occluded the screen for any other work. By the way, I have the most fun with it driving my computer midi over WiFi. There is something magical in holding an iPad in your hands and hear sound out of your speakers. Recording the patterns is pretty easy too and the results rival or better dedicated midi arpeggiators. This is simpler and more versatile. Great job.
Such a good idea

By drag2 (Pcmac user)

What I love: making things I might not have thought of, guiding it in a way that isn’t arbitrary and doesn’t have to have the blandness that other “inspiration tools” might have. What I want: exporting MIDI files. I like to make things on the phone and then open them in my DAW (which is not Ableton) and it seems like a no-brainer to include this option. Also, more sounds. Not a whole synth necessarily, but some more options. And most importantly: when a playhead is going in reverse it acts like a tape playhead would and triggers the note at its note-off. I would find it more useful musically if I at least had the option of it triggering the note at its note-on position on the timeline when playing in reverse. (When I superimposed a 16th note figure in reverse over a quarter note figure, since the original notes were all 16th in length, the reverse sequence sounded early. Could I get it to do something different by changing note lengths? Yes, but I liked the original notes as they were.
Fantastic Composition Tool

By dysamoria (Pcmac user)

this app is a fantastic composition tool. It’s also apparently a great live performance tool, according to some videos I’ve seen, but that’s not how I use it. I mostly play with the built-in synth for a while and then use the four MIDI outputs to control other synths, either on my iPad Pro or externally. There are some things I don’t find ideal about the GUI, but it seems that it’s going to stay as it is. My five star rating is in spite of those shortcomings, because what this tool allows me to do is completely unique among all my tools, AND I can operate it with ease (and I have not encountered bugs). Highly recommended for musicians!
Much More Than Meets The Eye!

Hi Alexander. I wanted to personally thank you for your wonderful invention. I have avoided this type of tool until now because I did not realize that something like FM could be used as an improvising instrument. But I got curious when it was recently on sale... and, wow, what an awesome surprise! As I explored the various parameters (some seemingly benign ones like “Start”) I realized I could do much more than just generate some patterns. The control of pitch, tempo, octave, direction, in and out of playheads all engaged me in a progressive, real-time creative experience that I had never had before. The capability of recording the four individual playheads was a tremendous asset in creating finished mixes, allowing me to orchestrate the real time improvisations as true modern classical or ambient finished tracks. As a jazz improvisor breaking the bounds of my own concepts has always been paramount. FM allowed me to do that in a brand new way. So, thank you so much for making FM! BRAVO!! TOTALLY RECOMMEND THIS AMAZING TOOL!
