Made to be played, not programmed.

Everything you need to chase a groove in a few taps.

◎

Circular sequencer

Eight concentric lanes you play like a mandala. The groove orbits the center hub.

▦

Four drum kits

Classic, Acoustic, Glitch, and 8-bit — one tap reskins every voice, pattern intact.

✦

Generators

Euclidean rhythms and probability bring patterns to life — then tap the ring to edit.

∿

Polymeter

Give each lane its own length and let the phases drift in and out of sync.

⟋

Swing & velocity

Push the feel off the grid and draw velocity per step for accents that breathe.

⤓

Export & plug-in

Bounce loops to WAV, or run Orbeat as an AUv3 instrument with MIDI in & out in your DAW.

The Orbeat app: a circular sequencer with colored step lanes, drum kits, and controls

The whole studio, in one circle.

  • Tap the rings to write beats; the playhead sweeps the mandala as it loops.
  • Lock, mute, and solo lanes to build the groove layer by layer.
  • Roll the dice for an instant pattern, or clear and start fresh.
  • Tuned for iPhone and iPad — portrait on phone, expansive on tablet.
