Build drum patterns in your browser — click a 16-step grid to place hits, choose a genre preset, set your BPM, and hear it loop instantly. Download as MIDI to use in FL Studio, Ableton, Logic Pro, or any DAW.
Create professional drum patterns in three simple steps — no music theory required.
Click cells in the grid to place drum hits — or hit Randomize to generate a pattern instantly. Each row is a different instrument: kick, snare, hi-hat, open hi-hat, clap, and perc.
Drag the tempo slider to set your BPM, then hit Play to hear your beat loop in real time using your browser's Web Audio API — no plugins, no installs.
Export your pattern as a .mid file and drag it directly into any DAW — FL Studio, Ableton Live, Logic Pro, GarageBand, Reaper, or any software that accepts MIDI.
A drum beat generator is a tool that lets you create drum patterns by placing hits on a visual grid called a step sequencer. Each row represents a different drum sound — kick, snare, hi-hat, clap — and each column represents a point in time, typically 16 steps for one bar of music at a 4/4 time signature.
By clicking cells in the grid, you build a rhythm that loops continuously. Browser-based generators like this one use the Web Audio API to synthesize sounds in real time, so you hear your pattern immediately without installing any software.
The MIDI export feature takes your pattern and encodes it as a standard MIDI file using General MIDI drum mapping (Kick = note 36, Snare = note 38, Hi-Hat = note 42). This makes it compatible with virtually every drum plugin and DAW out of the box.
Not sure where to start? Here are five essential drum patterns used in popular genres. Use these as starting points and customize them to make your own beats. Step numbers correspond to the 16-step grid (1 = first 16th note of the bar).
The foundation of rock, pop, and most Western music. Kick on the downbeats, snare on the backbeats.
Kick: 1, 9
Snare: 5, 13
Hi-Hat: 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15 (8th notes)
The signature of modern hip-hop. Rapid hi-hats, booming 808 kick, and sparse snares.
Kick: 1, 8, 11
Snare: 5, 13
Hi-Hat: all 16 steps (16th notes)
Clap: 5, 13 (layered with snare)
Laid-back and dusty. Off-grid feel with swing, minimal hi-hats, and a punchy snare.
Kick: 1, 7, 9, 15
Snare: 5, 13
Hi-Hat: 3, 7, 11, 15 (upbeats)

Hi-Hat: 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15

The Geometry Dash modding community is fragmented across various botting tools. If you record a run using Mega Hack v9, it might not natively play back on xdBot without conversion.
A GD Macro Converter is a utility tool (often standalone software or a script) designed to translate gameplay macro files from one format to another.
: Updating from older bots to newer ones often requires changing the macro format to remain functional. Refining Inputs : Many converters include a "Clean Replay"
By understanding the formats, mastering the conversion settings (especially FPS scaling), and knowing where to find reliable converters, you unlock a world of automated perfection. Whether you are verifying a silent demon or creating a cinematic showcase, converting your macros correctly is the difference between a flawless victory and a first-spike death.
For over a decade, Geometry Dash has challenged players with its rhythm-based, precision-platformer gameplay. While the core game relies on human reflexes, a massive sub-community has grown around and automated showcases . At the heart of this automation lies a critical tool: the GD Macro Converter .
