Pattern Editor

Full cell-by-cell control over every hit

Place hits on a grid, adjust velocity and sticking per cell, add ghost notes and flams. Every pattern opens in the editor for fine-tuning — whether it came from the wizard, AI, or the community.

  • 15 drum voices — kick, snare, side stick, hats, toms, ride, crash, china, cowbell, and more
  • Tap cells to place hits — velocity sets automatically by position
  • Drag to adjust velocity, long-press for flams and cross-stick
  • Mixed subdivisions per beat — triplets next to sixteenths
  • Any time signature: 3/4, 5/4, 6/8, 7/8, 12/8, and custom
