Harmonicer — an all-in-one composing suite for iPhone
Harmonicer is a multimedia music app built for iPhone that brings several production tools into one compact package. It helps musicians shape pitch, build harmonies, and create rhythmic melodic patterns with minimal fuss, whether you're sketching ideas or finishing a track.
Core capabilities
- Arpeggiation engine that generates rhythmic, repeating note patterns and melodic sequences
- Powerful harmonization module capable of adding up to four extra voices for a richer texture
- Precise MIDI quantizer to lock notes to pitch grids and tighten performances
- Extensive scale set with more than 20 presets plus the option to design your own scales
- Works as a standalone app and as an AUv3 plugin for use inside host apps
- Built-in keyboard for on-device playing and sketching
Creative tools that expand your sound
The app’s Quantizer is the practical starting point for refining raw input: it snaps notes to selected scales or pitch grids so melodies fit your harmonic intent. From there, the Harmonizer can layer complementary chord tones, and the Arpeggiator turns sustained notes into animated patterns, adding motion and groove to simple lines.
Integration and workflow options
- Accepts MIDI input from external controllers or other apps so you can route material from any source
- Support for AUv3 lets you load Harmonicer inside a DAW; the standalone mode offers a self-contained environment for quick ideas
- Onboard keyboard gives you a tactile way to play and audition harmonies and arpeggios without additional hardware
- Custom scale creation and a broad preset library make it easy to experiment with uncommon tonalities
- Flexible voice stacking and arpeggiation settings let you tailor the density and rhythmic complexity of the output
- The quantization tools can be used independently or combined with harmonization and arpeggiation for fast sound design
Who it’s for
Whether you’re a beginner exploring harmony or a producer looking for fast, musical tools to generate chordal textures and sequenced lines, Harmonicer provides a compact, integrated workflow for developing harmonically rich music on the iPhone.
