What Murmur is

Murmur is an iPhone app that generates original, royalty-free instrumental music for videos, games, podcasts, and other creator projects. You can select a preset or describe a scene using genre, instrument, texture, or tempo. More than 170 curated styles include cinematic, electronic, jazz, ambient, acoustic, and world categories. Live mode creates a continuous instrumental set and lets you adjust instrument layers on screen. The Library supports waveform playback, renaming, trimming, and fades for saved tracks. Exports are high-quality WAV, with sharing to TikTok and Instagram Reels and transfers to Final Cut Pro, Premiere, and Unity. Generation runs locally on iPhone using Apple silicon after the first model download. The free plan costs nothing and includes core presets, daily tracks, and limited Orpheus use. Murmur says prompts and generated audio stay on the phone.
