Song Maker is a service that reproduces the environment of making music only by accessing the URL with a browser, installing software is not necessary. In addition, since the browser is not limited to Google Chrome, anyone can get the production environment right now.


So, first of all, first of all, "What kind of things can you do with Song Maker?" By the way, the example you tried with poppy Poti is like this, you can listen with the play button on the bottom left. Melody and chords made with the marimba tone, and to the baselineReggaetonI tried driving the rhythm of an electronic drum like that. By the way, please be aware that the rhythm may sound somewhat unstable depending on the environment to be played back.


When you access the page of Song Maker, the following grid and play buttons, icons for setting instruments name and tempo etc are displayed. In the initial state, the smallest grid corresponds to eighth notes, and the performance is performed from left to right. In addition, the vertical direction of the grid indicates the height of the sound, "Doremifa Solaside" is lined up by 2 octaves from the bottom. That is, in this case, you can enter a pattern of "4 octave with 2 octave range, 4 quarter beat in eighth notes increments".


In addition, the bottom two rows of the grid are the grid to drive the rhythm. Although the sounds are only "low" and "high", you can make a simple pattern called "Dong Tang, doodotan" on the drum as shown in the image below.


Simply clicking on each grid with the click of the sound. Sound intensity (velocity) is constant, so that sound can be driven with kitchen and eighth note notch.


If you scratch the screen with "mouse" or "finger" with "father", it is also possible to enter sound continuously like this. Anyway, without thinking about difficult things, I can intuitively make music.


In addition to the initial set "marimba", the sounds that are prepared include five pitches of "piano" "strings" "woodwind instrument" "synth" ...


In the rhythm, there are four types of "Woodblock", "Drum Set" and "Conga" in addition to "Electronic".


Also, the tempo of the song can be changed from 40 bpm to 240 bpm in 1 pbm increments. The microphone icon automatically inputs the height of the voice spoken towards the microphone of the terminal.


Opening "Setting" allows you to make detailed settings for songs. "Length" allows you to set the length of the song up to 16 bars, "Beats per bar" can set the number of beats per bar from 2 to 7. In "Split bars into" you can change the number of notes per beat from 1 (quarter note) to 4 (32 th note), so if you care for it you can make sophisticated songs. "Scale" allows you to select the scale to enter from three types of "major", "five notes" and "twelve semitones". "Start on" allows you to set the key of the song (key), and "Range" allows you to set the height of the pitch from 1 octave to 3 octaves.


When you think of "Completion!", Click the "Save" icon in the lower right corner of the screen ... ...


What a composition I composed was saved on the cloud. Since unique URLs are issued, they can be played from anywhere as long as they have a net, or they can be shared on Facebook or Twitter, or embedded in the site using embedded code.


When you actually embed it, you can browse with this feeling. In this time I tried composing with a sound like a game music with the sound of "Ninta" like "Nishi" and "Conga".
