BeatGlow

BeatGlow is a drum machine that glows in the dark.

Tap out a beat on a 7-track, 32-step grid and hear it instantly. Every kick, snare, hi-hat, clap and FX hit is synthesized on the fly — there are no samples to download, and nothing is baked in. That means you can reach into any drum and reshape it: raise the pitch, stretch or choke the decay, brighten or darken the tone. The waveform changes, not a filter on top of it.

MAKE A BEAT
• 7 tracks x 32 steps — kick, snare, hi-hat, clap, plus three FX voices
• Tap a pad to place a hit; long-press to accent it for real dynamics
• Tempo from 60 to 180 BPM, with tap tempo if you'd rather feel it out
• MPC-style swing, from dead straight to a heavy triplet shuffle
• Per-track volume and mute in the mixer

SHAPE THE SOUND
• Pitch, decay and tone dials for every track, with instant preview
• Because the sounds are generated, not sampled, edits are unlimited
• One tap returns any drum to its original voice

BUILD A SONG
• Chain patterns into an arrangement, each section repeating as you like
• Reorder sections by dragging; playback runs the whole song gaplessly
• Keep as many patterns as you want, named and organized

SHARE IT
• Export audio as a WAV file
• Export a vertical video with an animated visualizer, ready for social
• Send a single pattern or your entire library to another BeatGlow user — they open the file and it imports
