Studio Flow
Your free online beat maker is already a complete studio. Start with a drum pattern, click in a melody, then drag pitches and note lengths with your fingertips. Choose a scale and keep the idea in key. The sequencer-based Studio Flow is the fastest way to create new beats.
Click steps to place kicks, snares and hats. Extend the pattern when the groove needs more room.
Tap a rhythm, drag notes up or down for pitch and stretch note lengths. Choose your key and scale; Spider keeps the notes in tune.
Shape an Intro, Verse, Build or Drop independently. Jump into Arrangement or use Free mode when the idea needs total freedom.
In Part Locked mode, steps write directly to the active Part's MIDI clip. The same notes are already waiting in Arrangement.
Watch the clip write itself
In Part Locked mode, the sequencer writes straight into the active Part's MIDI clip. Move to Arrangement and the kick, snare and hats you just created are already there — ready to shape from either view.
Structure when it helps. Freedom when it does not.
Copy a finished Part and the next variation is already halfway there. Or switch a track to Free mode, follow the unexpected idea, and bring it into the song when it feels right.
Spider AI · in the project, not beside it
Breakthrough MIDI and preset-composing AI, integrated seamlessly into your producer workflow. Every generated idea, clip or track stays open and editable on MIDI, track, instrument and preset levels. Your music is a session you can produce—not a flattened audio file.
Select any MIDI clip you played or sequenced. Ask for deeper groove, passing chords, melodic counterpoints or a resolved hook. Audition the preview before committing.
Explore AI MIDI editingGenerate an Intro, Breakdown or Drop. Spider AI coordinates drums, bass, chord progressions and leads across separate tracks, delivering editable MIDI clips aligned to your key and tempo.
Explore AI Part generationGenerate a song idea as a real multi-track session: drum lanes, basslines, melodic tracks and instrument presets. Delete notes, swap sounds, change synth parameters and rearrange every bar. Develop an existing idea section by section with Preview and Apply.
Explore song creation with Spider AIAsk for “warm 80s analog brass with a slow filter sweep” or “distorted modern sub-bass.” Spider AI sets the actual knobs, envelopes, modulation and filter routing on Spider's synthesizers.
Go deeper with wavetable selection, LFOs, modulation matrices and FM algorithms on the instruments that offer them. Enable AI+ to design the Instrument FX chain too—from drive and compression to delay, reverb and rhythmic pumping. Save the synth and its Instrument FX together as one reusable preset.
