Drumli is a tiny touch-sensitive drum. Only two pads to hit the bass and snare drum. As simple as it gets. ;) trick: choose where you set your device, and tap your screen with variable force but always gently, you don't need to hit it to reach maximum velocity, be kind to your device!

FIVE SOUND WORLDS Every world is its own synthesizer, built from scratch: - Bitbop - the signature chiptune sound, PWM lead and chip supersaw - Techno - a resonant lead, a clean sub and a punchy driven kit - Retro - a clear pulse melody, square chimes and a smooth triangle bass - Classical - bowed strings and a plucked harp in a concert-hall reverb - Dancehall - a syncopated sub, a skank chop and a steppers riddim 1,000+ SONGS TO START FROM Load a folk tune, a public-domain classic, a rave or techno groove, house, trance, drum and bass, lo-fi, hip-hop, afrobeat, latin, raga and more, then pull it apart and make it yours.
