This is awesome. I'm no drummer but have always loved percussion in general, so just had a lot of fun playing around.

My only tip would probably be a way to click (right-click since left-click is used?) the abbreviation for each instrument to hear it play once, or when you place a beat have it play that instrument once. The guide for which abbreviation is which instrument is above the fold when actually placing notes, so it's lots of scroll back/forth checking what's what again.

I added titles for instruments, so now when you hover with your mouse over the two letter label it should show you the full instrument name.

I think adding playing samples on left click should be fine, added to todo list.

Also, it should be easier to make pattern on play mode, so you have atleast some feedback.

This is fantastic — simple, fun, and with just the right vibe for exploring ideas quickly. I love how focused it is: no clutter, just straight into the groove. Do you see this staying as a passion project, or are you considering a business model at some point ?

Thank you!

I'll be working on some procedural stuff for patterns and variations to make exploring ideas even better. It's definitely passion project.

Nice site! One bit of feedback I don’t see mentioned. This may be an iPhone thing, but my experience is that the visuals are about a quarter beat ahead of the audio (at 60 BPM, so about 200-250ms off). Not a big deal, but definitely enough to make it feel a bit off. Again, could be just the nature of audio in Safari on iPhone.

Yes, I experience the same on desktop Safari.

Maybe this helps? http://drumpatterns.onether.com/?audio=3

I would be happy to port some patterns to Glicol ( https://glicol.org/ ) only suggestion: support https...

Woah, nice work dude. I had to regenerate ssl certificate, ovh says it's done but it will probably take some time to take effect.
