Pocket Beats is a paradigm shift in electronic rhythm composition. Designed to overcome the problems of programming complex polyphonic drum patterns, Pocket Beats makes it a breeze to create precision drum loops with rapid retriggering and drum rolls.
What used to take half an hour to write in a traditional drum machine or sequencer takes just seconds with Pocket Beats. It’s easy enough for a beginner to use, but robust enough to satisfy any beat fanatic. Plus, Audiobus users can now pair Pocket Beats with other iOS music apps!
To get started, just tap on the grid of squares and hit play. That's it--no massive menu system or complicated controls, just a dead simple way to make stunning beats. The multi-touch grid is fun to use and lets you easily visualize the relationship between each instrument.
Never get caught empty-handed when you think of a good beat on the go. Pocket Beats is reliable enough to be used for live performance and engaging enough to lose yourself in at home.
Pocket Beats was created by MIT and MIT Media Lab grads specifically to create precision drum beats. Our drum kits were designed by a Berklee grad to help get you started.
Pocket Beats is powered by our custom mobile-optimized Dream Audio Engine, which uses hand-crafted DSP code to directly manipulate your sound signals.
