Real-time Sample Engine
Continuously plays and shapes samples while you tweak pitch, decay, and tone — enabling fast, infinite micro-variation and confident transient control.
SEQ-16 is a high-performance, browser-based drum machine that generates grooves with AI MIDI Generation, plays and shapes samples in real time, and streamlines the path from idea → loop → deliverable.
A professional toolchain for rhythm design: inspiration, control, and deliverables — without switching contexts.
Continuously plays and shapes samples while you tweak pitch, decay, and tone — enabling fast, infinite micro-variation and confident transient control.
Build grooves with a familiar 16-step grid, then refine feel using swing and timing controls designed for consistent playback and exports.
Store multiple patterns (A–D) and sequence them into arrangements — ideal for building intros, drops, fills, and alternating sections.
Import custom samples, slice them into playable steps, and design rhythmic textures that stay locked to the grid and master processing chain.
Use AI to generate patterns, spin variations, and add human feel — then keep full creative authority with per-step editing and sound shaping.
Delivers production-ready outputs: live record to WAV, offline rendering that matches playback, and exports designed for real sessions.
Saves projects to the cloud and shares them via links — so collaborators can open the exact groove, kit, and settings instantly.
Connects to the Internet Archive’s drum machine collection so you can browse classic machines and pull authentic WAV samples straight into your kit.
Builds cohesive kits quickly — from your own uploads or curated libraries — then keeps them ready for sequencing, chaining, and export.
SEQ-16 treats AI as a collaborative partner — not a black box. It generates variations fast, then hands you granular control for finishing.
Seed your intent
Start with your grid, a preset, or a saved pattern. SEQ-16 turns that seed into structured variations you can edit immediately.
Generate variations
Produce multiple groove directions quickly — keeping the grid, voice mapping, and dynamics ready for arrangement.
Humanize for feel
Refine timing and velocity for natural movement while preserving your groove identity and the mix you’ve built.
Finalize + export
Lock the pattern, chain sections, and deliver a loop that’s ready to drop into a session — without re-building elsewhere.
SEQ-16 is architected to deliver localized pages with server-rendered language routes, consistent canonical URLs, and fast first paint — so producers worldwide get a predictable, search-friendly experience across languages.
The interface is engineered around a preloaded dictionary + client hydration model, enabling fast translation for core sequencing controls while keeping the UI responsive under load.
Designed to empower different workflows — from session production to classroom demonstration to performance-focused engineering.
Generates instant loop ideas, then accelerates finishing with sound shaping, pattern chaining, and export-ready workflows.
Demonstrates rhythm structures, swing, and sound design concepts in a zero-install environment — perfect for workshops and remote instruction.
Showcases high-performance AI-to-Audio integration: on-demand model loading, cached weights, and responsive UX under real-time audio constraints.
