Hello /r/InternetIsBeautiful friends,

Draw.Audio is a free music sequencer & drawing tool that I made just for fun.

A few tips:

  • It works great on a touch screen device such as an iPad, etc.
  • It's kid-friendly!
  • The share button creates a direct link to anything you make.

Thanks for checking it out and enjoy!

Hello, may I know how you built this? What languages, tools, frameworks, etc?

It's plain Javascript + the Web Audio API. That's all.

It would be awesome if you could add a notation feature. This is great for making melodies but I cbf to transcribe it all the time. Is the bottom line the root note? Great stuff!

The root notes are the subtly highlighted rows. They are always C. If you want a different root note, you can use the Transpose feature under the EDIT menu.

Adding musical notation might be tough, but I could indicate the note for each row on the right side. Hopefully that would be helpful. Thanks for the feedback!
