Thanks for visiting this site dedicated to the TR-808. Try some beat-making below with this stylized 808 inspired sequencer.
The real deal: sixteen step buttons in four groups of four — red, orange, yellow, white. The 808 inspired sequencer below is live so go ahead and make some beats!

Every sound here is synthesized live in your browser — oscillators and noise, no samples so the sounds are slightly different than a real 808.
Keyboard: tab to a step, hit space. Tab to the knob, use the arrow keys. The pattern is yours; nothing is saved, which is part of the charm.
