Doodle Beats: Draw Music Maker

Draw, and your drawing plays. Doodle Beats is a music maker for people who can't read music, and for people who can. Draw a line on the canvas and a playhead sweeps across it, playing every line it touches. Higher lines play higher notes. A wavy line becomes a melody, a flat line becomes a held chord, and a dot becomes a single note. Every note stays in key, so whatever you draw sounds good. NINE COLOURS, NINE INSTRUMENTS Each colour is its own instrument: marimba, plucked string, dream pad, kalimba, bass, flute, glass bell, keys and a retro chip lead. Mix colours to build a whole band on one canvas. THREE WAYS TO PLAY • Ink: draw freely with your finger, like paper and pen. • Pixel: paint squares on a 24 by 32 grid, like a step sequencer you can see. • Photo: a 3 by 3 picture stage that turns images into music. Colours choose the instrument and height chooses the note. Use the built-in art or your own photos. MAKE IT YOURS • Add a beat: Chill, Boom bap, Dance or Shuffle, with real swing. • Change the tempo from a slow 60 to a fast 160 BPM. • Pick any of the 12 keys and 8 scales: pentatonic, minor pentatonic, major, minor, dorian, blues, Japanese and lydian. • Shuffle a drawing for new colours and a fresh tune. • Draw on a midnight sky, paper, blue sky, dusk, or a photo of your own. • Reverb and echo give every note a soft room. • Hear each note under your finger as you draw. • Undo and eraser for quick fixes. RECORD AND SHARE Tap Record to capture your loop as a high-quality WAV file. Listen back, save it to your Music folder, or share it to any app. Every recording is kept in your library. YOUR LIBRARY Every doodle saves itself as you draw. Open, duplicate or delete them at any time. Five starter doodles are included to play with. PRIVATE AND OFFLINE No account, no ads, no in-app purchases, no tracking. The app has no internet permission, and nothing you draw or record leaves your phone. Great for relaxing, for kids learning about melody and pitch, for music teachers, and for anyone who wants to make a tune in a minute. Questions or ideas? Write to [email protected].
