Beatbox

A macOS app that converts vocal beatboxing into drum tracks. Train it on your own vocal hits — kick, snare, hat, whatever you can make with your mouth — then beatbox a pattern and it records, quantizes, layers, and exports the result. No DAW required.

  • Train up to 8 vocal triggers per profile, separating deliberate hits from background noise
  • Live blend of raw voice and triggered samples via a Voice/Samples slider
  • Automatic punch in/out recording for overdub passes, with undo
  • Smart quantization with tempo detection and adaptive timing
  • Export to WAV (voice, drums, or mixed) or MIDI
Beatbox app window showing sound training controls, a tempo and loop bar, an empty layer view, and a drum kit list on the right
  • macOS 13 or later
  • Requires microphone access
  • Xcode command-line tools to build (Xcode itself only needed for tests)
