Instructions

You can add or remove notes by clicking on the gray rows at the top. JukeBox automatically plays the notes out loud for you. Try it!

Notes go into patterns, and you can edit one pattern at a time. Those numbered boxes at the bottom of the editor are the different patterns you can edit. Click the boxes to move to a different part of the song, or click the arrows on the currently selected box to swap which pattern is played during that part of the song.

JukeBox can play several rows of patterns simultaneously, and each row has its own set of patterns. Most rows can play melodies or harmonies, but the bottom row is for drums.

All song data is contained in the URL at the top of your browser. When you make changes to the song, the URL is updated to reflect your changes. When you are satisfied with your song, just copy and paste the URL to save and share your song!

When JukeBox has focus (click on its interface above), you can use these keyboard shortcuts:

If you have channel muting enabled: If you have simultaneous instrument per channel enabled: And if you're in the song player:

These are just a few shortcuts, check JukeBox's edit menu for more!

In the note pattern editor, you can click and drag horizontally on a note to adjust its duration. You can also click above or below an existing note to add more notes to be played simultaneously, which is called a chord.

ADVANCED: Drag vertically from an existing note to bend its pitch, or drag vertically from above or below the note to adjust its volume. You can perform fine volume adjustment if you hold Control while doing this!

ADVANCED: Click and drag on the pattern grid to make a selection. You can then press C/V to mass copy/paste parts of your song.

JukeBox has many more features. Try playing with the buttons and menus on the right side to find out what it can do! You can also click on the label next to each option for a description of what it does. Some features are hard to find anywhere though - for example, if your song has any modulator channels, you can hold Ctrl or Shift while the song is playing to record the movement of sliders directly! If you want to learn more tips, tricks, and best practices though, see below.
