Show HN: Write drum patterns, get randomized songs, then just share the URL

6 pointsby rurtrackover 2 years ago
I know mentioning Michael Seibel is almost cheating, but this week he demonstrated the "leaky pipes" concept to me. Not that I know the guy, but in one of his videos he says something on the lines of "If you are unsure if you app is ready to be launched, just launch it. It's like a house with leaky pipes, just open the main, grab your tools, and start fixing wherever water is leaking". So we did it, we launched drummy earlier this week on /r/InternetIsBeautiful and we got very close to 10k users in just one day! Survived the hug of death, learned a ton, and made changes all around. Still a ton of bugs to fix, features to be written, but at least now we can proudly present the "dummy drums challenges". Can you find the missing beats?

The randomize button is very difficult to find. It's in plain sight (at the top left) but I didn't realize that the icon means a new random example. Perhaps you can add a text to the button.

Nice! I'd love to be able to export a MIDI representation of a pattern. Any way to do it / any plans to incorporate?
