Pico-8 Music Tutorial #58 – Creating a Drum Beat (Advanced)
🕑 Added 2020-07-13 14:01:00 +0000 UTCThis tutorial was inspired by this tweet.
How can you get more variety in drum sounds? The answer is to use the instrument editor!
In this tutorial, I show a basic workflow for creating your own “drum kits.” In Pico-8, you can easily loop a music pattern and edit the sounds simultaneously. This creates the tightest possible feedback loop, so you can seamlessly create and edit your sounds.
In the next tutorial, I’m going to do the same except with bass sounds and bass lines. Ultimately, we’ll be able to combine drums & bass in a cart, make it available to the community, and give everyone a head start in making music.
Let me know if you have any questions!
