Why does my pattern sound different when I download it?

The playback uses your browser's audio engine while downloads render at studio quality. For best results, adjust your pattern until it sounds great in playback before downloading.

Can I edit the pattern after generating?

Currently the generator creates complete patterns. For editing, we recommend downloading the beat and importing it into your favorite audio software.
