BleepGarden Music Maker 2000 / v2.9
Created for SuperNick (Nick) · Make a song or play the keyboard
Keyboard notes: C D E F G A B. The ♯ symbol means “sharp” (the black key). C3 means C in octave 3. Use OCT to change the displayed pitches.
Play with your mouse, touch or keyboard. Four coloured knobs change the matching parameters. On-screen menus and four numbered display buttons handle sequencers; advanced panels are optional.
PLAY / RECORD / REWIND
Audio is off. Click ENABLE AUDIO, or press a musical key to begin.
PERFORMANCE STUDIO / v2.0 FOUR-TRACK MIXER
Mix the four tape tracks in real time. The instrument mixer knobs use the same levels and pans.
TRACK 1
TRACK 2
TRACK 3
TRACK 4
All four tracks audible. SOLO isolates one or more channels; ARM selects the tape destination.
Capture records the live stereo mix, including instruments, tape, mute/solo, effects and click. Downloads a separate WAV without altering tape tracks. Maximum two minutes.
SOUND ENGINE / effects and polyphony
Improved note handling and effects. Tap SYNTH FX to adjust effects with the coloured knobs.
While on the synth FX page, hold SHIFT and turn the blue knob for reverb or the orange knob for chorus. Regular knobs still control delay, feedback, echo mix and drive. Reverb affects synth, drums, samples and tape playback.
ORIGINAL SOUND LIBRARY / v1.2
24 independently designed browser patches across three banks. Your original eight sounds remain in CLASSICS.
The original eight browser sounds
Brightness is a broad low/high shelving EQ. Warmth adds gentle parallel saturation. Both affect the live mix and WAV export. The four coloured encoders continue controlling the selected synth pages.
PROJECT RECOVERY / LOCAL
Verified autosave checkpoints keep the current project and a previous recovery point. Download a portable project to protect against browser data loss.

Storage estimate unavailable until checked.
Checking browser audio and storage support…
A recovery checkpoint is local to this browser. It is not a cloud backup. RESTORE PREVIOUS replaces the current project after confirmation. FREE UNUSED MEMORY does not delete stored recordings or project backups. PROTECT STORAGE asks the browser to reduce automatic eviction, but cannot guarantee it.
OFFLINE & INSTALL / v2.0
Keep the instrument on your device for playing and editing without a connection after the application files have finished caching.
Checking offline support and app cache…
On iPhone, open this page in Safari, choose Share, then Add to Home Screen. On a computer, use your browser’s Install App action if available.
Offline app files are separate from your recordings. Browser storage, private mode, device resets, or uninstalling the app may delete local projects. Save a portable project JSON regularly, including after recording.
SESSION / TAPE
Track 1 selected · 00:00 / 01:00 · 120 BPM
MIC/RESAMPLE now records at the chosen tape speed. LAYER adds audio; REPLACE CLIPS trims overlapping audio on the destination track after a successful capture. WOW and FLUTTER modulate recorded PCM; note events retain their original synth engines. Bounce renders a mono copy of other tracks, keeping those tracks unchanged.
SAMPLING WORKSHOP / v2.0
Non-destructive waveform and slice editor. Original audio is never altered.
Tap a region to select its slice. Drag cyan outer handles to trim the region or drag white internal markers to adjust slices. No audio is deleted. Keyboard: ← and → move the selected boundary by 1%.
Load audio with + SAMPLE, then adjust its start, end and slices. Existing recorded note events keep their original slice settings.
Projects use verified local recovery checkpoints. SAVE PROJECT downloads a separate portable JSON backup. Browser storage can still be cleared or evicted, so keep backups elsewhere. Tape editing works on both note events and imported/recorded audio clips. Microphone access requires HTTPS and browser permission. Save a portable project backup.
SEQUENCER / Pattern · Endless · Arpeggio · Finger · Tombola
Pattern: play a note, then click a step to place it.
Select A–D to edit its sixteen steps. Chain OFF repeats the selected slot; CHAIN ON follows the programmed repeats.
The sequencers use note events; the four-track tape still records real audio clips independently. Arm REC and start tape playback to capture a sequence as editable notes.
SONG ARRANGEMENT / v2.0
Build a song from Pattern A–D. Every section has its own name, bars, voice and mix track. No tape clips or source recordings are modified.
UNIFIED SONG WORKSPACE / v2.0
Arrange snapshots of Piano Roll chords, Pianola melodies, Pattern A-D and recorded tape audio. Clips can overlap on four musical lanes, without changing source scores or recordings.
Start bars and tracks use zero-based numbers. Drag clips sideways, press Left/Right when focused, or edit their numeric fields. Clip copies freeze the source notes and instrument. All clips use the main BPM and timeline meter, with quarter-note BPM counting in 6/8. Legacy Song Arrangement stays separately editable; its REPEAT button also controls the timeline. Tape references are not time-stretched. PRINT TO TAPE creates a new PCM waveform at tape start on the selected track, with a maximum 59-second timeline.
SYNTH NOTE PLAYER / v2.0
Load a Pianola score without squashing its timing into 16 steps. Play every written note and rest through the selected SYNTH sound.
Choose your synth sound above. The loaded notes have their own saved tempo and meter and are independent of Pianola edits. MIDI import is available in the Synth Note Player, Pianola, Piano Roll and Unified Song Workspace using the Studio Comfort controls.
PIANOLA COMPOSER / v2.0
Write notes and rests in musical time. Export MIDI or an editable notes JSON, or send the complete score to the Synth Note Player.
MIDI export is compatible with standard MIDI players and music editors. Notes JSON can be imported back into Pianola or the Synth Note Player. SEND TO SYNTH preserves the complete melody rather than truncating it to a 16-step pattern.
The coloured blocks represent written notes; grey blocks are rests. Each bar follows your chosen time signature. Use the selected synth sound and BPM above. Select a block to change or remove it. Everything is saved with your project; existing tape recordings and arrangements stay untouched. The BPM counts quarter notes, including in 6/8.
PIANO ROLL STUDIO / v2.0
Draw chords and melodies directly on a musical grid. Import MIDI, record performances with the instrument keyboard, edit timing and velocity, then play or export with the selected synth sound. The original Pianola stays untouched.
Drag a note to move its pitch or timing. Drag its right edge to resize. Snap, undo and selected-note fields also work on touchscreens or with a keyboard. Import supports Standard MIDI Files with a single constant tempo; variable-tempo files are rejected rather than inaccurately replayed. Live recording uses the keyboard above.
