Beatbay
A drum machine and beat maker · Free music app for your browser
Beatbay: a drum machine and beat maker, free to use in your browser with no download or account.
Make a beat in a minute, with every sound made in your browser as it plays: no samples, nothing to download. Eight drums across a step grid: tap a step to turn it on, drag to paint a row, and give any step an accent, a roll of two to four quick hits, a chance (so it plays only some of the time round) or a nudge early or late. Swing on sixteenths or eighths, tempo with tap tempo, and 4/4, 3/4, 6/8, 5/4 or 7/8. Random always gives a beat that works, Vary changes a few steps at a time, hold Fill for a drum fill, and drag the Sweep down for a build-up and let go for the drop. Play it live on eight big pads, louder in the middle, and Record puts what you play into the pattern on the nearest step; MIDI pads work in Chrome. Twenty starter beats of our own in the styles people look for, from boom bap, house and lo-fi to trap, drill, reggaeton’s dembow and bossa nova, each with a line on what makes it. Share a beat as a link that plays as soon as it’s opened, with Remix it to make it your own, or as a square or tall video of the grid lighting up with the sound, a WAV or a picture. Four kits, two patterns and five saved beats are free; Pro adds all eight kits and mixing drums across them, patterns up to 64 steps and rows of their own length, eight patterns and song mode, a bass track and a chords track that stay in key, every starter, M4A of whole songs, video without the mark and MIDI learn. No account: your beats stay on your device.
