This is super cool, I really like the inline visualization and controls.
Why is this embedded in this Whop thing? That sounds like something on its own

Thanks! Whop is a funding platform like buymeacoffee but it had crypto as well (well, buymeacoffee also has now).

It looks cool but I wasn't able to get any audio when I started playing.
iOS 26.4.2, Safari, sound is on.

Speaking from experience, it requires a disproportionate amount of effort to get web audio apps working reliably across different versions of iOS.

No sound for me

I had the same problem on iPhone. Turning my ringer on solved it.

Obligatory https://strudel.cc/ mention, same thing bit different, have made music in any of them. But I follow artists that use strudel.

Is it libre software?
skrebbel•May 18, 2026
yes

Ah, I overlooked that info, not expecting to see it in the very readily shown ‘welcome’ tab. Looks like it’s copylefted, too. And present on the Fediverse. Very nice!
I really want to see what would happen if you got a musically talented math teacher to teach a bunch of kids trig, music, and programming with this...

https://strudel.cc has been the most intuitive music livecoding experience I've come across. In-line piano rolls and waveform visualizers, highlighting current notes - I love it.
I'm currently halfway through making an album entirely in Strudel

Can you share anything so interested parties can follow you? I love strudel as well.

I wanted to embed it on my blog but couldn’t because of the license.
jppope•May 19, 2026
well done! flipped to 1 4 5 just to see what would happen and it didn't miss a beat (literally and figuratively).

Simply... amazing

This is awesome, the filters sound excellent and UI is great.

I'm just going to mention Pure Data here, because I'm always surprised when people don't know about it. https://puredata.info/
I use it in my art and music practice to interface with hardware like a GameTrak controller, and to control drone motors for bowing/drumming physical things for computer controlled electroacoustic music. I also use it at a university lab for the development of assistive musical instruments for disabled musicians. It is both an extremely useful tool, and an incredibly fun musical playground for the mind.

My favorite so far is charstiles.
Any others you can point me to? Or communities where I can explore?

The Plugdata variant of Puredata is particularly handy. https://plugdata.org/
Plugdata can run as a plugin in your DAW, compile to a standalone plugin, and compile and load sketches onto a Daisy Seed (https://electro-smith.com/products/daisy-seed).
