Chiptune is a step sequencer application designed for composing music in the style of old game consoles. It utilizes four NES-style synthesized channels to create unique 8-bit sounds.
You compose by tapping notes onto a grid, which can be customized from 4 to 64 steps per pattern. The app offers two pulse channels, a triangle channel, and tunable noise for drums.
Yes, patterns can be chained into arrangements with named sections and repeat counts, allowing you to build intros, verses, choruses, and more for a complete song structure.
Chiptune allows you to export your songs as WAV files with seamless loops or with the last notes ringing out. You can also export as MIDI files for use in other music applications or as video files for social media.
