K.O. II vs Beatmeat

K.O. II is a compact native beat-making instrument for iPhone and iPad. Tap responsive pads, switch between drum, percussion, bass, and key banks, build 16-step patterns, and explore 38 included demo grooves. Designed as a focused standalone music surface, K.O. II gives you a hardware-inspired workflow for quick ideas, rhythm practice, and portable sound experiments.

Beatmeat turns beat scenes into a tactile pad instrument. Pick a scene and tap the coloured pads to fire drum hits, loops and guitar stabs — everything is quantised to the beat, so it stays tight no matter how you play. Each scene is a little performance surface: one-shot pads, sample clusters and step sequencers, all tuned to a track. Hold a sequence pad to run a looping pattern, stack layers on top, and play along in real time. New scenes arrive over the air, so your library grows without waiting for app updates — and everything is cached for offline play. No accounts. No ads. No tracking. Just tap and play.
