Build drum patterns with a 16- or 32-step sequencer, seven classic kits, BPM and swing controls, effects, custom sounds, and WAV or MP3 export.
An online drum machine lets you program a repeating rhythm directly in your browser. Turn steps on and off for each drum sound, adjust the timing, and hear the complete pattern loop while you edit.
Build a compact one-bar groove or extend the sequence for a longer pattern with more variation.
Switch between 808, 909, 707, CR-78, MPC-60, LM-1, and DMX-inspired sample sets without rebuilding the pattern.
Set an exact tempo, tap a tempo by feel, and move the swing control to loosen rigid sixteenth-note timing.
Shape the groove with reverb, distortion, and bit crushing, then render one or more loops as WAV or MP3.
The step sequencer opens first so you can start programming a rhythm immediately.
Start from a blank grid or load a rock, house, boom bap, trap, reggaeton, lo-fi, bossa nova, drum and bass, or Afrobeat pattern.
Click steps for the kick, snare, hi-hat, and percussion tracks. Mute tracks or change individual track levels while the loop plays.
Adjust BPM, use Tap Tempo, add swing, and try a 16- or 32-step pattern until the groove feels right.
Record a live pass or render the programmed loop, choose WAV or MP3, and download the finished drum beat.
Build the rhythmic foundation for a song before moving the loop into a larger recording or production project.
Set a stable tempo for guitar, bass, keyboard, percussion, or timing exercises and keep the groove looping.
Play the same pattern through different kits to hear how the drum source changes the character of the rhythm.
Export a clean drum loop for a video edit, demo, songwriting session, or further processing in an audio editor.
These tools can all create rhythm, but they are designed around different workflows.
| Drum machine | Drum pad | Full DAW | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary workflow | Program repeating steps | Play sounds live | Arrange complete songs |
| Best for | Patterns, loops, and backing beats | Finger drumming and live performance | Multi-track production |
| Timing | Grid-based with BPM and swing | Controlled by your taps | Timeline, MIDI, and audio tracks |
| Learning curve | Fast and focused | Immediate and playable | More powerful but more complex |
Switch to Drum Pads inside the tool when you want to play the selected kit live instead of programming steps.
Yes. You can program, preview, record, and export drum patterns in your browser without creating an account.
A step sequencer divides a repeating musical bar into positions called steps. Activating a step triggers its drum sound when playback reaches that position.
Yes. Use 16 steps for a compact repeating groove or switch to 32 steps when the pattern needs a longer fill or variation.
The kit selector includes 808, 909, 707, CR-78, MPC-60, LM-1, and DMX-inspired samples covering electronic, hip-hop, pop, and retro drum sounds.
You can record a custom sound with your microphone and assign it to a pad. The custom sound is then available in both pad and sequencer modes for the current session.
Yes. Choose the number of loop repetitions and export the result as WAV or MP3.
Yes. The tool runs in modern mobile browsers, although the larger step-sequencer grid is most comfortable on a tablet or desktop.
Build 16- or 32-step patterns with classic kits, BPM, swing, effects, and audio export.
Finger drum on 16 pads, record custom sounds and performances, then export the result.
Create glitch, drone, and pad-like versions with grain controls.
Set BPM, meter, subdivisions, beat accents, click sound, tempo training, and practice time.
Choose an exact frequency, waveform, volume, and duration, then play or download the tone in a mainstream audio format.
Browse 80 CC0 and browser-generated sounds, then upload, record, trim, and save custom clips to a personal soundboard.
Play audio through an analyzer and switch visual themes.
