Revolutionary AI-Powered Drum Designer
*** "There’s simply no other plugin out there with this exact functionality - Playbeat is the most powerful tool for rhythmic pattern creation and opened up a world of new possibilities for producers, composers and musicians" ***
- Musicradar -
Playbeat 4 features new, cutting-edge algorithms and revolutionary genre-based pattern generation, allowing for endless new patterns, sounds, and grooves.
No two beats will ever be the same, offering an entirely fresh and dynamic experience every time you create.
Playbeat ensures that the generated patterns are usable, musical, and fresh, providing you with unmatched precision and control.
Whether you're creating drum patterns, feeding modules with MIDI, or generating endless remixes on the fly.
Our new genre-based randomization feature lets you select your preferred music styles and generate patterns tailored to those choices.
You have full control over the complexity of the beat and can specify whether you need complete drum tracks, individual sounds, or patterns only.
SMART BY DESIGN
Unlike other groove creators that are limited to one specific algorithm, Playbeat innovates by using advanced local A.I. algorithms to create or remix completely original grooves that never repeat and always sound great!
POWERFUL SEQUENCERS
With up to eight totally independent sequencers which can combine Real-Time Pitch Shifting including scales and tunings, our signature Density feature, Track delay, Volume, Pan and more, Playbeat can create or remix infinite combinations of patterns in the most creative way. Load up any audio file, edit or randomize the values and samples instantly. Let Playbeat take over and let it perform for you using our signature Infinity mode. There is no limitations on what comes out!
REMIX, PERFORM & EDIT
With Playbeat's totally new algorithms you now have the option to create unlimited remixes of patterns based on your current pattern to fit your entire song.
Edit your samples on the spot, and generate a new, fresh set of Remix patterns again and again.. and again. Our highly acclaimed multi-functional keyboard allows you to trigger individual sounds, pattern sequences, or full drum grooves with ease.
PRESET & SAMPLE MANAGEMENT
The new sample management and Preset management system allows you to add any folder from your device, browse any sample and quickly drag and drop any sample to the Sequencers & Sample Slots to create your Kits. Each Preset can be Previewed, categorized by Genre, or even swap Samples & Groove Patterns from different presets.
CREATE EXPORT/IMPORT YOUR OWN PACKS
You have the option to create your own personalized packs, all with your own Artwork, Name, Description and tagging, which you can export and share with another user on iPad or Desktop.
Playbeat comes with a built-in factory library of patterns, sounds and 1500 kits, fueling its powerful AI algorithms to generate dynamic drum tracks.

Ratings and Reviews
THANKS FOR THE FONT FIX!
I love the new update with the increased font size! I struggled to use the app because of the small fonts and low contrast in the UI. Now I can see much better…. Thanks for listening and making these improvements.
PlayBeat4ConsumerUnhappyWithiPadMini2iOS12.5.7
Dear Audiomodern developers, my review is more about expressing or spreading my discontent with you. I just realized that this time, my criticism and disappointment aren't going to the App Store. I wanted to buy PlayBeat 3, and strangely enough, it was only compatible with a higher version of iOS than the one I have, so I couldn't get used to it. And now you're releasing the same app, PlayBeat 4, which is superior to the previous version and is compatible with my device. You're definitely being very mean and shameless. As a consumer, I'm speaking out against these outrageous marketing strategies. I don't see the difference between charging a direct price for purchase and offering it for free, installing it, and then having to pay to unlock its most important and functional parts. And thank goodness you don't have that other absurd subscription strategy, which is a real rip-off. I don't understand why there are people who pay monthly or yearly for something they already bought. In conclusion, I've realized that you, as developers, program apps to work on your chosen versions of iOS. You've already demonstrated this with this bad trick: PlayBeat 3 iOS v. 13 or higher, and now PlayBeat 4, compatible with iOS lower than v. 13, free, with a fee for general unlocking. Your apps are great, but your marketing strategies leave much to be desired. I want you to understand my dissatisfaction as a consumer.
Developer Response ,
Making the app available as a free download with all its content essentially serves as a trial version, allowing users to test it on their setup before deciding to purchase.
As for supported iPadOS versions, this depends entirely on technical limitations we encounter during development. For this version, we were able to support more OS versions and a few older devices. There’s no marketing strategy behind this decision, it simply wouldn’t make sense.
Found some bug
Whenever i try to export all tracks of a certain midi sequence I like, PB puts out an unusable midi file with no structure, all steps smushed into a single note. So I cant use the ideas i get to make a new work , which pretty much beats the apps purpose. Kindly check this out
Update: thank you for educating me! Updating to 5 stars.
Developer Response ,
Please make sure that you assign the fixed note outputs to the desired ones from the settings tab.
