Playbeat 3

Playbeat is a groove randomizer with four tracks, into which you can load any sample via drag & drop or via the browser. It doesn‘t have to be drums or percussion, you can also create exciting grooves with other short sounds. The starting point of each sample can be adjusted. Each sample has its own sequencer track with up to 16 steps. For each step you can set whether the sound is triggered and in which pitch and volume it is played. If you click on the big cube, Playbeat sets these values randomly and creates independent beats.

The random function can be applied to all or selected tracks. In addition, the range can be limited, e.g. to 5 steps per track with a pitch from C2 to C3 and a volume between 67 and 127. Step, pitch and volume can be randomized individually and excluded from the global random function.
