A playground for your ears

Make music by playing with it.

Click a beat into a grid. Stack blocks that reverse it, shift it, or leave happy accidents. Ask the co-producer to make the hats sparser, and have it tell you why that works. No theory required. You will pick it up as you go.

Make a little noise

Free to start, no credit card required.

Go on, press play

This is a beat. You can see all of it.

Sixteen steps make a bar. Lit steps play. The kick is the top row, and everything interesting about this groove is where it lands between the snares.

Read how this pattern works

Blocks, not notation

Beats, recipes and whole songs are built from pieces you can see, drag and undo.

A co-producer that teaches

It edits the same project you do, in the open, and explains every change in plain words.

Yours by default

Everything you make is private until you decide to share it.

Learn with your ears

You do not need to know what a chord is. Yet.

Notes are steps of a key, so a wrong note is hard to play. Field notes turn each idea into something to try in your own loop. And every change, yours or the co-producer's, can be undone.

Field notes

Eleven small playgrounds, one idea each: swing, chords, the shape of a sound. Five minutes, no sign-up.

Explore

Songs and grooves other people made and chose to share. Press play on any of them.

Free tools

A drum pattern generator, a chord progression generator, a metronome and a tempo tapper. No sign-in.

Why this exists

AI can make a song for you. This is for people who would rather make one themselves.

Pricing

Start free. Grow when your loops turn into songs.

The free plan is the whole instrument, not a demo. Paid plans add room for more projects and more time with the co-producer. They are not open yet, so for now you can ask to be told when they are.

Free

Make loops, learn the ropes, keep everything you make.

What happened to WavTool

The first browser DAW with an AI you could talk to is offline, and its team now works at Suno. This is what we know, with dates, and what the idea deserves next.

Undo is the most important AI feature

Not the model, not the voice, not the number of genres. The feature that decides whether you will actually use an AI in your music is whether you can take back everything it just did with one press.
