An attempt to rethink a music sequencer design

In plain words

A music sequencer rethought from the ground up, available on GitHub. The software lets users create and arrange musical sequences through an alternative interface design. It's for musicians and producers who want to experiment with a different approach to beat-making and composition compared to traditional sequencers. The project represents an experimental take on how sequencing tools could be structured differently.

  I built a WebMIDI sequencer to control my hardware synthsDec 2025 · simplychris.ai · ▲43

  Hey HN, I’m an ex-Google engineer trying to get back into music production. I needed a way to sequence my hardware synths using AI contexts without constantly switching windows, so I built this. It runs entirely in the browser using WebMIDI. No login required. It connects to your local MIDI devices (if you're on Chrome/Edge) and lets you generate patterns. Tech stack: [React / WebMIDI API / etc]. Link: www.simplychris.ai/droplets Code is a bit messy, but it works. Feedback welcome.
