With this page places you got a real "software drum" that you can handle in real time directly since your navigator. Whith a module of Artificial Intelligence generating rythmes. It's seems magic to say like that, but it's possible cause of Java technology. It's also a automatic drum pattern composer, whith a little artificial intelligence, really funny !
You have in front of you a Java application which makes noise, then use a navigator which allows Java and connect your speakers.
Warning, this application does not works with the default java/plugin installed with Internet Explorer. You need a more consistent java plugin from Sun. Try to install the JRE if the application does not works now http://java.sun.com/products/plugin/ .
I strongly recommand to see the new application on the official server https://sourceforge.net/projects/ordrumbox/
I strongly recommand to use the new version (béta) Oisoft DrumBox New Version
You must for that lay out:
You must wait until the command control located just below the title: " Oisoft WWW DrumBox " are displayed in the gray square , it is necessary to wait a little, that depends on the speed of your modem and the network at the time when you will test, in most cases you does not wait more than 1 minute. If nothing is displayed, you can test to click in the gray zone, normally it runs!!! Press then on the button " Fill ", of the small green squares will appear, it is now necessary to wait still a little bit ( less than one minute) and there, should hear a rhythm, it is a demonstration of the possibilities of the application.
The button fill gives an example of what one can do with Oisoft WWW DrumBox, Yeahhhh. Try the Auto mode, it's a automatic drum pattern composer, whith a little artificial intelligence, really funny
You can download all the application, it's only 180 Ko and dezip it in a single directory then launch the file testdb.html
You can get the complete source code (in GPL licence) here and you can take a look at Free Software Foundation for the details of what is a GPL license, what is a open source and so on. Direct access to thesource code in you browser here:
All are in the same directory...
To hear a sound, one needs click in the small squares gray or blue in order to put them in green,you got 3 Levels of green which correspond to 3 different volumes; pay attention to well place the lever of volume " fill mode " " pattern " and " Echo mode " on off (the small light must be set off). Each line correspond with a sound and each column with a time.. Try the Auto mode, it's a automatic drum pattern composer, whith a little artificial intelligence, really funny
It is the line of buttons located in bottom on the left!
See before
To erase all in the pattern.
If you made an error, for example to put a note inexcess or erased a note of too, it is possible to go back: A click on Undo and one returned to the precedent situation, it is cool data processing...
Think it'a automatic rythme composing with artificial intelligence inside. You justhave to push the button and listen to the music... This composition respects the rules of house and techno music composing. Try it !
Stop all sounds...
This pannel enables you to define the way in which you fill the patterns.
Allows to define the length of filling to fill out 5 consecutive notes, you just have to put 5 in the Length case.
Allows to define the step of filling. To fill out a note every four times, you just have to specify 4 in the case step.
Allows to define the velocity (volume) with which the pattern is filled.
Allows to define the way in which are repeated the notes.
It is the type of echo, there are two possible, either the notes attenuate (standard 1), or it is different thing (standard 2).
It is the length of the echo. If you put 3, each note will be repeated 3 times.
You have 4 patterns, to select one of them you have to clique in the corresponding button of the panel pattern. The button corresponding to the pattern in progress is set on, the others are set off.
The small button located on the right of the pannel is used to connect them automatically, when a pattern is completed it gives the hand to the following. You can thus listen to your musical piece...
It is about the approximate tempo which will be played your music. One can be more or less quickly actuating the small arrows of the case tempo.
The values go from 50 Bmp (very slow)à 250 bmp (very quickly).
You have to click in the box of your choice to insert or remove notes.
It's explain how to easily make your own rythme and how to use the advanced functions of Oisoft WW DrumBox
It is necessary to start from a empty pattern , for that to start by makingclear with the button of the same name.
The bass drum, it is the basic instrument of the technomusic. Actuate the case fill, to specify a step of 4 (Step) and a length of the 15 (maximum), a velocity of 3 then click on the grid in the first box in top on the left. You will obtain a basic rhythm .
To return it a little more cool, de-select the fill mode then always click in the first line but with the last column, click twice to give a less significant swiftness and you will have a true rate/rhythm techno then.
Make four times same the pattern, to change pattern, you just have to click on the corresponding button of the pattern.
On the last pattern, add a break of snare drum, for example, then engage the automatic mode of the pattern pannel. Your 4 patterns then will be played in continuation and will thus form a true piece of technoïde music .

Dj - took is a DJ and he works whith the Oisoft Java drumBox you can see his work at
The main problem is about the regularity of the rythme, thix proble is fixed in the new version
You can write to me to be sent your comments, to say if it's works on your system and all this kind of things, if you can suggest me possible improvements, you have to write !!! !!!
Sounds If you find the sounds of this too bad application, you can propose your own sounds to me, I will have a pleasure of integrating them... Attention, the format readable by Java (JDK 1.1.*) remains of the 8 Bits 8Khz. you just have to write to me by putting your sounds in the mail. It's fixed in the new version.
This application is realized by Oisoft Rekords, it is a freeware, you can do of them what you want... If the java source code interest you, you can download it, it's free, it's an open source software. If you use them, do not forget to quote Oisoft Rekords with a link to this page.
Your Patterns can be backed up, you just have to send a mall to me and I will be able to then propose to put on line your works.
Soon, you will see a " pro " version downloadable and which makes it possible to import your own sounds like generating loops in quality CD. The mixing is done in 24 Bits and the sounds are generated in stereophony 16 Bits 44 Khz, the interface is almost identical. The product is still under development for now. Of course I am opened with any draft amendment of the interface or something.
This version is now available in beta at Oisoft Rekords Drumbox
This application has been developed by Oisoft Rekords, it is a freeware whtih "open source" GPL license , you can do of them what you want...You can use the source code s a commercial product...All the sounds and patterns presented belong to Oisoft Rekords.
If this kind of application musical on line you interest, it there of have another in the style on dotcom that they give to me the idea to make all that.
