I tried out the iPhone music making app Medly for the first time and made a couple of beats. INSTAGRAM ► / leviniha TWITTER ► / leviniha SOUNDCLOUD ► / leviniha SPOTIFY ► open.spotify.c...
Bit of a long, uninteresting tangent: I used to use Medly all the time. It’s one of the apps that got me into making music on the go so this is nostalgic to me. It used to be my favorite pass time, I even bought and used all of the original instrument packs of each genre. However, I stopped using it because of all of their updates and reworks made the app glitchy, alongside them changing the sounds of certain instruments completely which janked up a lot of my old projects. They even introduced their own samples of SFX and vocals used in featured demo songs by talented artists, but weren’t implemented well in the app and had lots of bugs that for a long time went unresolved. Now, like all other higher quality mobile music apps, everything you’d want to utilize has a price, which is understandable. Don’t get me wrong, this app was really fun and I assume still is. But I just feel like Medly Labs trying to transform the app entirely really harmed this character that it had before. Great beats Levi, btw. It’s interesting to see all of the instruments that come in their new membership packs.
I personally find Auxy better to use overall. There's curated drum and synth packs, from professional recording artists and studio engineers. Sure, it also has a subscription, but has higher quality instruments, along with some eq parameters as well.
He does that so people cant just remake the exact song... if they dont see it then they dont know waht he put so they cant recreate the EXACT same beat. They can create a similar one but it isnt the same
Someone showing Medly some love!! It’s a really fantastic app for making music in your spare time or for fun. I make music on it, but never to the complexity that you have in just a simple loop like this. Fantastic! (oh if anyone wants to I post the music I make so go looksie if you’d like)
The chord progression in the second beat reminded me a bit of Daft Punk’s song “Get Lucky”. I like it! BTW, since Christmas is coming in a few weeks, I have to ask, have you ever thought about making Christmas music?
Speaking from personal experience, Medly takes some getting used to with its controls, especially on mobile. But once you get the basics down, you can make some amazing songs.
Medley is my first app I used in end 2015 that I started whit. Now I produce on Ableton and I need to say how much this app is important. It gave me love of music producing. Btw this app heck of evolved 😂
Yay you checked out my favorite music app lol! You would be suppressed how much you can do with just the free stuff. I never really bought anything and I’ve been able to make all the sounds I needed.
It's a little confusing at first, but you need to drag notes left to move and right to extend. That's why you were having most of your problems with the controls. There is a glitch though where you can't extend notes when they're on the very first beat, it kinda sucks.
Levi, you should try Auxy, you can use a library of drum samples while making your melodic instruments unique to how you like it. I highly recommend it
Oh my god.... I used to use this app in my old iPad (Yeah, the thicc ones). This give me nostalgia, but this one is starting to get more premium (ik its free). Before it wasn't. Also you can't install it in old versions of the ipad now days. I had fun while it lasted. Thank you! For making this video.
Just so you know, when you use a free trial u can cancel it whenever you want (even right after to got it) and you will still have it till it says it expires
u can add adapter to your phone so u can plug a mouse, a midi keyboard or any think u use on laptop. and it's cheap. it's just a cable. google OTG cable
Me: "Oh, that sounds goo-"
Levi: "Garbage! Get that out of there"
...
Literally me
My thoughts too 😂
yep
TripleQuestionMark Facts!!!😂😂😂💀🌚🤦🏻♂️
TripleQuestionMark same my song “firestorm”
Will be absolutely hated by him
14:56 "I think the drums can be.... super straightforward"
*Proceeds to make most complicated drum beat yet*
Lol. Straightforward for him
This man has spoken the truth
He said straightforward not simple
If you mess around with it and just do it in the spaces its like 1st try like a 12 yr old it looks hard but trust me itsy not
Right when i looked at this it was at 14:56
Ducker gang
Thank you very much mr duck
duck chomp
Hmm
Have u played "untitled goose game"
You are here as well, lol.

Ober yo same
Ober. I had the exact same story.
you could try Auxy tho
i have the same story
I'll think "holy crap that sounds great" and he'll just go "that's awful, delete"
Ikr XDDDD
Yeah lmao
LMAOOO
Instead of cutting out your finishing touches you should have a timelapse, it would be really cool
That's actually a wonderful idea💡
He needs to see comments like these with such good suggestions
He does that so people cant just remake the exact song... if they dont see it then they dont know waht he put so they cant recreate the EXACT same beat. They can create a similar one but it isnt the same
Yes
Kai Hux actually its because recording that much footage would probs require a lot of storage, since he spends hours upon hours making this music
13:33 all I can hear is the intro to "Get Lucky"
**guitar and bass sounds**
I only came to the comments to see someone say that. how perfect is it.
Only ogs listen to daft punk
TRUE
It sounds like the start of revenge remix
"This sounds garbage"
What do you meaaaannn?!?!
I remember using that app when I was younger
Sad Duck me too, that was before I heard of Garagaeband.
Mr. Rewind 2 I like Medly better
Cash0311 I didn’t, I found it too complicated.
bruh this was released in september of 2017
Mr. Rewind 2 That’s what I thought about Garage Band, I guess it’s because I learned with Medly.
16:49 Levi scared the poor note
Omg I’m dying of laughter😭
@@TomEllis_ ME TOO 🤣🤣
Hahahahaha
🤣 IM DYING 💀
Needs a 10 hour version
16:06 ...i'm telling you those background dings combined with the percussion sound the wifi waiting room theme from mkwii
Levi: **does something amazing**
Me: 😍🤘
Levi, 10 seconds later: that's baaad
Me: 😔
_Stuff I saw in the comments:_
1. *Incredibox*
2. *Make a beat with the Kahoot theme*
TAc nah
@@ReviloBeats okie dokie
3. Garbage
Sorry
Oh yeah I never thought about Incredibox
Me: **vibes to a part of the beat**
Levi: ha *GARBAGE*
Edit: I’m late but thanks for my first 200 y’all :)
Edit 2: Thanks for the 510 now
yep
Facts tho
I thought I had a terrible taste in music lmao.
Sharkz FR

(oh if anyone wants to I post the music I make so go looksie if you’d like)
My favourite music producer CZcams makes a beat on my favourite music producing apps..
Today is a good day!
Me: Hey that sounds pretty good!
Levi: That sucks!
Am I the only one who thought that the melody in 4:07 was pretty good?!
not really a melody more of like an arp
Hype Beats yep it was fire
HECK NAW I loved it, imma try make it again
it was LIIIIIT
Hey I’m just wondering if anyone can check out my SoundCloud? @mental-reality
It’s no problem if not :)
Me: ooh I like the sound of th-
Levi: NO! That’s so bad
The chord progression in the second beat reminded me a bit of Daft Punk’s song “Get Lucky”. I like it! BTW, since Christmas is coming in a few weeks, I have to ask, have you ever thought about making Christmas music?
YEEES! Same thing I thought. Get Lucky
they have the same chords. just on different notes and instruments.
also, WE'VE COME TO FAR TO GIVE UP WHO WE ARE
He has to play incredibox like so he can see this please
.
The only thing I have ever agreed with more is the slaughter of Heathens in the Holy Land
Incredibox is very limited.
Jade Blade you think so
Wow this is in my personal opinion the best game ever thank you very much i enjoy the music
7:22 why does this sound like the beginning of the Oompa Loompa song
It does lol🤣🤣😭
Oompa Loompa Doom-pa-dee Doo
Yep
0:56 Russians have joined the chat
Hahahahaha lol wtf🤣😂😭
HAHAHAHA
triipaloski tripa tripa loski 😂
13:30 literally A Moment Apart by Odesza
Collab with Andrew Huang!!
if he doesn't he'll probably do it with composerily or shady cicada
@@atlaslovesedm yeah!
Me: that sounds cool. Levi: absolute trash
Best producer ever
When your at 10:00 thinking the video is about to end and then you check how much time is left...
Me: Hey, this is pretty nice sounding.
Levi: That was.. terrible-
Me: That was horrible, yeah! Of course I've got good ears, pshh-
AUXYGANG
Matterello right here boi
finally someone else who knows about medley!
medly best DAW change my mind
3:10 "speedy bois" got me 😂😂😂😂
3:34 hey hey,😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
That cold vocal chop would make a great Cypress Hill beat
Speaking from personal experience, Medly takes some getting used to with its controls, especially on mobile. But once you get the basics down, you can make some amazing songs.
Loving the consistent uploads! ❤️
Medley is my first app I used in end 2015 that I started whit. Now I produce on Ableton and I need to say how much this app is important. It gave me love of music producing. Btw this app heck of evolved 😂
2 hours with a phone and it still good
D00N3Y_29 T 😂 you obviously never heard of GarageBand.
@Mr. Rewind 2
He never told that it's the best when compared to anything else
He just told it's good
Sreenikethan I I never said he did, I just said they obviously never heard of garageband
it isn't obvious, eh?
@@rewindoffical5280 GarageBand is too complicated for me
bruhh this is lowkey what i started making beats on
Only lowkey?
Me: "Hey that sounds pretty good!"
Levi: "Garbage."
Me: "Garbage."
Yay you checked out my favorite music app lol! You would be suppressed how much you can do with just the free stuff. I never really bought anything and I’ve been able to make all the sounds I needed.
My favorite too. Sorry 3 years later.
AUXY REIGNS SUPREME
Jeffrey Acquah yes it does brother
IT DOES
The vocals of Get Lucky by Pharrell Williams would fit perfectly on the 2nd beat
No one can make beats with such class
Except Levi. LEVI MAKES BANGERS!
That app looks so cool, they even have packs for genres like Chillstep and Tropical House!
It's a little confusing at first, but you need to drag notes left to move and right to extend. That's why you were having most of your problems with the controls. There is a glitch though where you can't extend notes when they're on the very first beat, it kinda sucks.
Levi : that's suc-
Me : WTF THAT'S REALLY COOl
7:07 Wizards of Waverly Place Trap Remix
Full song: 17:48
5:19 i love the sound of the zombie beat and i wish there was a song that used a beat like this
I did Medly. It is great. I didn't sign up for a pack though cause I'm a kid who is loving making music.
Yoooo that Wraith sample was fire 5:23
9:41 “A hey could be heard in the distance” -Random Talking fish
1st one gives me Halloween graveyard/mansion vibes and the second one gives melancholic futuristic skyline vibes
You should also try « Auxy » too
“Lets get some bass” “lets get something basic”
12 year olds: “bAsSiC”
HAHAHHA
The template "Sunset" is my favorite
“where am I gonna find something chilled out?”
the chillstep instrument pack: am I a joke to you?
I'm crying! I'm not the only one who makes music on my phonе😂That video just refreshed my wonder for creativity :-) Thx, that's such an awesome skill.
Hey I’m a big fan of your work! I think you should make another one of these Medly videos!
3:50 them drums remind me of UB40 - Don't Let It Pass You By or it could be UB40 - Sardonicus OR even UB40 - Present Arms
In my days we had to use Music DJ on Sony Ericsson phones. And before my time - **gasp** - I heard they had to use the Nokia ringtone composer!
I have waited so long for a medly video
Next Video:
Making a beat without a beat
Uhhhhhhhhh I’d be music without a beat... I like your style
this is y i love levi niha: 3:35
Levi, you should try Auxy, you can use a library of drum samples while making your melodic instruments unique to how you like it. I highly recommend it
Oh my god.... I used to use this app in my old iPad (Yeah, the thicc ones). This give me nostalgia, but this one is starting to get more premium (ik its free). Before it wasn't. Also you can't install it in old versions of the ipad now days. I had fun while it lasted. Thank you! For making this video.
Instrument: lean
Levi: that's *PHAT*
You need to try this again they made everything simpler with the Medley 6 update
when he said "BRUH" i liked him %100 times more
That Zombie loop preview, oh my lawd that’ll sound lit with a good ass beat.
how is this guy so effortlessly good at this
This dude can make a beat in a second while I’m taping random shit tryna make a good beat thanks for the tips
He deserves more subscribers
HE NEEDS A MILLION!!!
yeet
I use Medly and I mostly make trap beats and intense dubstep
OH MY GOD I HAVE BEEN USING MEDLY FOR MY MUSIC
haven’t watched it yet I wanna see if it was good
yeah that was pretty gosh darn good
Yeah my first music app was Medly
It’s still good for the automation
Me: ooh nice beat
Levi: GARBAGE!
Me: yeah garbage
this is where I started making music
same
I gotta say the sounds in this app are very high quality.
You’re way too underrated.
Title: Making decent Music
Thumbnail: Complex af soundboard
Just so you know, when you use a free trial u can cancel it whenever you want (even right after to got it) and you will still have it till it says it expires
u can add adapter to your phone so u can plug a mouse, a midi keyboard or any think u use on laptop. and it's cheap. it's just a cable. google OTG cable
I'd love to see (er, hear) you make a beat using a movie SFX pack instead of your usual suite of instrument sounds.
Man I really love it
Wow that app is so unique and simple enough to get yo producing on!
12:36 sounds like the strangers things intro lol
the UI actually looks really clean
16:55 *insane in the membrane*
Nice video, try making a beat with a tracker (milkytracker etc.)
The second beat..damn
I was actually going to suggest you to use this app, but you did it anyways. Awesome job!
You could also try to make a song with this app: my singing monsters
But he already has
Bruno Barnowski :o that’s true
Damn... you really are very good at this! 😅❤
You can also change the length of a section
"it's basically just a cheaper, slightly worse, alternative to auxy"
Sounds about right
#AuxyGang
13:40
That's "Get lucky" from daft punk !
Love the song!
