A music sequencer reimagined with multiple playheads.

Fugue Machine is a tool inspired by composition techniques used in Baroque music and Serialism — e.g. Bach’s canons and fugues, and Schoenberg’s twelve-tone technique. The idea was to design a tool to manipulate a melody’s speed, direction, and pitch, as well as play multiple variations of the melody simultaneously.
As it turned out, the best implementation for this was to reimagine one of the most fundamental building blocks of all music sequencers: the piano roll.
Fugue Machine is the world’s first multi-playhead piano roll. Create a music sequence and play it back with up to four playheads at once — each at various speeds, directions, pitches, and more. Watch the playheads dance, and hear the complex patterns that emerge.
It’s mesmerizing.
Fugue Machine supports iPhone, iPad, MIDI, AUv3 MIDI, Ableton Link, Audiobus, Audiobus 3 MIDI, and Inter-App Audio. Thanks to the AUv3 standard, you can run multiple instances of Fugue Machine on the same device when hosted in an AUv3 MIDI host app — like Logic Pro, AUM, and Audiobus.

Excellent Sequencer!👏
I found this sequencer extraordinary to create my music. A creative brand of sequencer that is just inspiring. UI is very easy to use allowing you to free your mind to creation . The MIDI routing to my synth an piano apps , works perfectly. AU integration with GB works seamlessly.
Me gusta
Simple y perfecta para generar la base de cualquier composición.
Gran Idea / Beatiful Idea
De mis apps preferidas! ahora es más fácil de configurar las asignaciones MIDI usando Audiobus 3. Las melodías resultan bellas e inesperadas. Una secuencia simple ejecutada con cuatro reproductores que pueden ir en diferente dirección y tempo se convierte en una armonía llena de riqueza y movimiento. Es una app sencilla y muy útil.
Todas las barras reproductoras se puedan configurar vía MIDI y asignar tus sintes favoritos!!
One of my preferred apps! easier MIDI setup using Audiobus 3. The resulted melody using Fugue is beauty and unexpected. A single sequence played with four playheads in different direction and tempo becomes a rich harmony full of movement. It's really simple and useful!!
Every playhead is MIDI capable and you can assign your favorite synths!!
Awesome
Coolest way to get 4 synth/apps playing together
Bonita herramienta para improvisar
Me gusta mucho esta app para improvisar conectándola con mis sintetizar favoritos del iPad
Genial
Please add the option to quantize the pitch of the transpose notes... Into the scale, like diatonic transpose only 8 notes instead of 12 semitones...
Keep good working.
Amazing app
Different midi channel for the headers will be amazing
Great Idea
Looks and works beautifully. Wish list: More scales, Random head movement (mabe arpeggios-nome like ?), a different MIDI channel for each head would be total bliss. Thumbs Up !
