Everything you need for beatmaking
No music production experience required.
Sound like you studied music theory
You don't need to know music theory. Pick a key and the Chord Helper shows you exactly which chords sound right together. Stack them with a single click and build professional progressions for hip hop, trap, lo-fi, and more.
Every note sounds musical
Choose from major, minor, pentatonic, blues, and more. Your piano roll highlights the notes that work so you never hit a wrong one. Switch scales on the fly to explore different moods.
Export to FL Studio, Ableton, or any DAW
When your sketch is ready, export it as MIDI to keep producing in your favorite DAW. Or download a studio-quality WAV for instant use in any project. Your ideas, your workflow.
Describe a sound. Get it in seconds.
Stop digging through sample packs. Tell our AI what you want and get a custom audio file instantly. Layer it into your beat for a sound that's entirely yours.
Make beats with friends in real-time
Share a link and produce together live. Everyone can add instruments, edit patterns, and hear changes instantly. Perfect for remote sessions, music classes, or just vibing with friends.
Pre-made melodies & loops
Not sure where to start? Load a ready-made melody or drum loop with one click and build from there. All loops are tempo-synced to your beat so they fit perfectly from the first play.

Start a session instantly with no account needed. Click cells on the grid to build your drum pattern and use the piano roll for melody ideas.
02
Shape and collaborate
Layer instruments, arrange sections, and refine the groove. Invite anyone with a link and build together in real-time from any location.
03

Why beginners and music creators choose Make a Beat
Whether you're sketching your first drum pattern or arranging a full multi-section track, Make a Beat gives you the tools of a professional digital audio workstation (DAW) in a zero-friction browser experience.
Built for beat sketching
Sometimes you just need to get an idea down fast. Make a Beat is designed for exactly that — open your browser, click a few cells, and your beat is playing. No project setup, no loading libraries, no 5-minute boot times. When your sketch is ready, export to MIDI and continue producing in FL Studio, Ableton, Logic, or any DAW.
The only multiplayer beat maker
No DAW lets you share a link and have someone join your session in seconds. Make a Beat is genuinely multiplayer — everyone sees changes in real-time, everyone can add instruments and patterns. Perfect for remote production sessions, music classes, or just having fun making beats with friends.
Learn music production visually
The grid-based sequencer makes rhythm and composition visual and intuitive. See exactly how kick, snare, and hi-hat patterns interlock, and use the piano roll to understand melody and harmony. It's the ideal music maker for teachers, students, and self-learners — a clear stepping stone before moving to complex digital audio workstations.
AI-powered sound creation
Stop digging through sample packs. Generate custom, one-of-a-kind sounds with our AI sound engine. Describe the sound you want and get a unique sample in seconds. Layer it into your beat and export. Your productions will sound like nobody else's.
