The Drum Pad

Create Beats with an AI Drum Machine

This neural drum machine combines a hands-on step sequencer with an artificial intelligence rhythm model. Select cells in the grid to build a seed beat with kick, snare, hi-hats, toms, clap and rim sounds, then let the model complete the pattern with a complementary groove.

The pink cells represent the seed rhythm you control, while blue cells show beats generated by the model. Drag the gold divider across the sequencer to change the amount of your original pattern used as inspiration, then select the regenerate button to hear a new variation.

Adjust Tempo, Swing and Creativity

Use the tempo control to move from slow, spacious rhythms to energetic patterns. Swing changes the timing between alternating steps for a looser groove, while the creativity setting controls how closely generated beats follow familiar patterns. Lower values generally produce steadier results; higher values encourage more unusual ideas.

Choose a pattern length of 4, 8, 16 or 32 steps and edit any generated cell after it appears. The 32-step pattern is selected by default. Select play or pause whenever you want to review changes. Audio starts only after browser interaction, so your device will not begin playing unexpectedly.

Experiment with Rhythm in Your Browser

The responsive sequencer works directly on the page and adapts to desktop, tablet and mobile screens. Headphones or speakers will make quieter percussion details easier to hear. Loading the neural model requires an internet connection, but no account or software installation is needed.

Select Record beat to capture the drum machine’s stereo output. Recording starts the pattern automatically when it is paused. When you are finished, select Stop & save WAV to save an uncompressed audio file directly to your device.
