About Lil Drum Machine
Warning: This is not a toy but a seriously fun & programmable Classic 16th note step sequencer/drum machine to capture those ideas when that flash of inspiration hits while away from the studio.
Don't let the name fool you, there is nothing Lil about this! Musicians & Producers will appreciate the clean interface, pattern editing, ability to load multiple .wav files quickly into each channel on one screen, multiple FX options, settings & ease of export into DAWs.
New to drum machines and step sequencing? Check out the friendly, In App Help UI and Quick Start Guide: https://www.teotigraphix.com/help/lil-drum-machine/index.html
The Lil Drum Machine is an engaging way to experiment with rhythms in isolation and export beats to wav, ogg, or mid loops.
14 classic & unique drum kits/percussion banks as well as 168 .wav samples get you started sequencing drum beats and mixing & matching sounds.
To our fellow Producers/Musician friends: We hope you enjoy this app and can appreciate what you can do with it on your little android phone or tablet! The Lil Drum Machine's sole mission is to fill the void when we are outside of our studios and not tweaking on our gear and DAW's. It was not feasible to include "it all" and have "everything" on this platform. Thanks and have fun capturing those beats while you are on the road!

Awesome and simple Well done guys
Coo
Legendary. Own Full Version. Highly recommend. Years ago I saw my first drum machine very similar to this layout at a friend's. Suggestion; Resizable font for visually impaired and older users. I did NOT purposely read any directions and only went off of my intuition. In mere moments I was using the app. Based on a ...
Teoti Graphix is a developer from whom I can purchase LITERALLY ANY APP and be more than satisfied, and this is no exception...engaging and a lot of fun. Having the opportunity to experiment around with the effects, etc. in a more conventional and visible manner than Caustic is worth the price of admission alone. Pl...
Capable and fun. You can upload custom sounds.
Very Nice!!! Sound quality is superb! Awesome for electronic music (techno, house). It sounds so crisp. Finally an app that recognizes my sample folder and the UI is gorgeous and simple. This is really well done. I have a huge request and you will make my dream come true. A looper so i can incorporate some audio loo...
