About this app

Play Beat is a beat sequencer from about age 7 (Dutch groep 4 and up) and anyone learning to program a groove. You place hits on 16 steps, listen, then edit until the pattern is tight.

Tracks
• Kick, snare, hi-hat, clap
• Bass, piano, synth (tap the same step again to raise the pitch)

Effects per track
Enable FX on one track; the others stay dry. Effects: reverb, lowpass, highpass, saturation, echo.

Get started
Pick a starter (empty, house, hip hop, rock, ambient) or build from scratch. Play, change steps, set tempo. Your beat stays on the device.

The app is free. A single non-personalized Google AdMob banner sits at the bottom. No interstitials, rewarded ads, or video ads. A one-time purchase (about €2) removes that banner. Restore purchases is in the app. Privacy: https://beatboxbart.nl/playbeat-privacy/
Make beats & music: 16-step drum machine, bass, piano & synth. Free to play.
