Watermelon-1
Fruity Drum Instrument
$1.99 · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Turn a watermelon into your rhythm instrument. Play a responsive drum surface, generate seed beats, fine-tune every hit, record ideas, and export audio or MIDI.
What if a watermelon could play drums?
Watermelon-1 turns a whole watermelon into a playable percussion instrument. Tap, glide, or play with multiple fingers at once. Where you strike changes the pitch, tone, and stereo position, so every part of the fruit feels different.
Plant your own beat
Build grooves across eight tracks and 16 steps, or tap Random for a fresh pattern you can keep editing. Shape each hit with velocity, probability, accent, ratchets, timing, pitch, pan, and decay length. Set the pace with BPM and Swing.
Find your fruit sound
Choose from five distinct kits: the juicy splash of Juicy Kit, the deep pulse of Ripe Trap, the soft grain of Chill LoFi, the tight attack of Fresh House, and the woody bounce of Tropical Melon. Recorded sounds blend with synthesis, while filter, resonance, reverb, delay, feedback, and drive controls let you shape the result. Watch your performance in a movable audio visualizer.
Capture an idea and keep going
Play with a USB or Bluetooth MIDI keyboard or pad controller. Record the app's audio and replay takes from your history. New recordings also save a snapshot of the sequencer pattern and sound settings when recording stops, ready for more editing. Export the current groove as WAV, M4A (AAC or ALAC), FLAC, AIFF, CAF, or MIDI.
Take it into your workflow
Watermelon-1 includes instrument and drum machine AUv3 extensions for compatible hosts, with watermelon sounds, a seed sequencer, and per-step controls.
Made for iPhone and iPad. Open Watermelon-1 and plant your first beat.
