💡 How it works
Welcome! This is a step sequencer — the building block of every drum machine since the 1980s. Hit Play and the machine scans left-to-right through a grid of 16 steps, triggering any squares you've turned on. Each row is a different drum sound. Hover over any part of the machine to learn more, or try a preset below!
