I understand what you're saying. Changing the octave/instrument applies changes to the complete grid.

A way to get around this problem is to program octave 4's in one grid, save to the loop, and add another layer of octave 5's.

I could easily program supporting multiple instruments/octaves in a single grid but I'm not sure if that'll be intuitive to use. I'll do some research on this.


Easy fix: make your grid a full eight notes. C4 to C5 and allow users to change the register.

Auxy is a great iteration of what you are building.


Makes sense! Thank you again for the suggestion, I implemented it.

Tried Auxy, it's a great app!


Bug should be fixed now.

- I added the Save/Load feature that saves your sessions within your browser.

- Added the option to export as .wav

- Added ability to edit loops on the grid, along with some other QOL features!


That's a good feature request. Implemented!

Yup I've noticed that. I'll try to fix it.

I tap the stop button again to make it stop.


Yup I'm thinking of ways to make it shareable. This is a client-side static website(runs completely on your end) so won't be able to make backend-supported links.

Edit: Implemented!


Can put all data in the url itself :)

Just implemented it!


Yes I understand what you're saying! I'll fix this.

Edit: Fixed!


Seems you can only have one drum and one melody track, can't add a new one? When I try it stops playing the other tracks.

I just saw your comment, I couldn't reply to it there, but I just added the edit layer feature, along with other QOL features.

Also, did you try the preview with loop button? It's in the preview drop down. It should let you preview the grid along with what's already in the loop.


You have to add them to the Looper with the "Add to the Looper" button. I need to think of a better UX for that. Let me know if you have ideas!

I did that, so maybe I'm just missing something but after adding them to the looper and deleting the notes to start a new layer, the old layer doesn't play anymore.

I'd suggest instead of making the loop layers and editors "siblings" ontologically, instead default on app load to have a single layer, then have the option to add more layers and switch between them - add layer then edit, instead of creating a layer and adding it to a list.

I really do like the randomization though, it actually sounded surprisingly nice. Took me a moment to realize what was happening but it's actually a seemingly simple feature that's hard to achieve in full blown DAWs.


Thank you, I'll work on it!

Love to hear it!

Yes I agree, it is currently a side-project that is 2 days old! Also brilliant suggestion, played with it and really liked it!
