drumbit
Make drum patterns in an online machine with selectable styles, tempo and swing controls.
About drumbit
drumbit is a web-based drum machine for building drum patterns in the browser. Users pick a drum style, set the tempo in BPM, and adjust master volume and swing. Patterns are built on a step sequencer, can be saved and reopened as drumbit files, and can be recorded as audio files.
The homepage lists several sound-shaping controls, including low-pass and high-pass filters, a compressor, and panning. Keyboard shortcuts cover playback, recording, copy and paste between four pattern slots, and a keyboard mode for navigating steps. A preference can keep the last work after leaving the app. Pricing is not stated on the homepage, and the source does not describe any cloud storage or account features.
