  • Show HN: I built a little online drum machine using 808 style samples
    I would highly recommend enabling click and drag to "paint" notes. As it is right now, if I want 16 closed hats, I have to move, click, 16 times. I'd rather drag to paint based on whatever state of the note I start on. The mutes on the left would be better if they mute the notes, not the sounds. Muting and then enabling can end up playing the tail of some of the longer sounds. This isn't typically how you want... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

  • Best music production program for making beats?
    If that’s just about making beats, a Roland TR8 is awesome for that. Or even a Teenage Engineering PO Rythm, a jumbee or make https://io808.com his homepage. Source: over 2 years ago
  • Trying to figure out this 808 drumbeat sound from " Marvin Gaye" by Charlie Puth
    In fact, try it right now. Go to https://io808.com/ . Set the tempo dial to 3. For the bass drum (BD), enable steps 1, 7 and 8. For the snare drum (SD), enable steps 9, 15 and 16. Source: almost 3 years ago
  • Zoom Escaper: self-sabotage audio, making your presence unbearable to others
    Also of note that Firefox's Web Audio API implementation just isn't very good in general. It's my daily driver, but I won't run Airsonic in it, because after half an hour or so the music reliably starts glitching. Fine in every other client, so it's definitely a Firefox thing, and iO-808 [1] also calls it out in an alert if you go there in Firefox. Granted, a glitchy audio implementation might be just the thing... - Source: Hacker News / about 3 years ago
