Intua BeatMaker


The mobile music creation studio for the iPhone and iPod Touch



BeatMaker introduces a new generation of mobile instruments and music creation software. Inspired by hardware beatboxes, loop samplers and software sequencers, it combines them to turn the iPod into a unique, inspirational software instrument.


Using BeatMaker creative tools, you can compose, record, arrange, and tweak live your ideas into a complete song, ready to be shared with others.


Mobile sampler interface


In your pocket, ideally suited for live or for fast, intuitive composition, the 16 multi-touch pads enable you to load, slice, tune, and trigger sounds from an extensive sample library.
Live pattern recording and sound control with the simplicity of a finger movement





Lay down your ideas. All your ideas


Experience BeatMaker step sequencer for creating your grooves. The tactile editor makes music composing really quick and easy while keeping a precise synchronization. Limitless patterns, endless possibilities, delivered on tune and on time.





Create your song while performing live


Arrange your song snippets to your liking, loop and improvise in real time all the building blocks of your tune into something meaningful.





Enhance, alter, add new perspectives


Give a new impulse to your sound material using audio effects. BeatMaker provides two independent effect channels including synchronized delay, 3-band EQ, and the famous "Bit-Crusher". You can apply new rhythmic pattern to your drum loops, change textures and frequencies and recreate the lovely vintage sound.

Great tune ? Pass it on
