Super Simple Sequencer

🪄 An online sequencer that makes it easy to play with different musical ideas right in your browser with just a few clicks.

🎼 This step sequencer allows you to create musical loops of up to 4 bars long. To keep it a simple sequencer, the bars are locked in a 4/4 time signature with each beat divided into two, letting you set steps of 8th notes.

🌈 By default you'll see all the notes of the chromatic scale for 1 octave, but you can expand to 2 octaves.

💾 When you're happy with a musical idea created on this app, just download the MIDI file and import it into your favorite DAW.
