Tahti.studio – a groovebox for the browser

That was my take from the 2018 keynote but…that was three years ago!

i’ve just deployed version 1.1!

there a couple new features and some smaller fixes:

  • new: mixer section on master tab
    image
  • new: parameter for controlling the initial transient
    image
  • new: offline mode (ping @Opposyte)
  • new: sample preview volume in library
  • fix: the delay sometimes wobbled at the start of a rendered WAV-file
  • fix: some layout things for mobile devices, still a lot to do though

check it out! :slight_smile: now i’m gonna start looking into microtonal scales for the next version…

cool! are you getting sound though? on my iPhone 7 everything seems to work visually (even the signal indicators) but i’m not getting any output :frowning:

Maybe you have the silence switch on? I am geting sound on iPhone XR but the lows seem to be weirdly distorted. Parameter locking doesn’t work for anything except coarse, but that’s understandable.

such a simple thing, i feel dumb now :smile: thanks for pointing that out! i’m randomly getting distortion too, but might just be that my iPhone isn’t powerful enough to run the app. anyway, now my motivation for improving the mobile version has increased significantly :slight_smile:

You could try https://github.com/swevans/unmute to remote the need to unmute your phone, I’ve not actually tested it myself yet though!

Awesome, thanks so much !
wait, how do you use the offline function ?

the page should work offline once you’ve visited it once while online. works on my machine at least, but let me know if you have some trouble!

Can you make it run more than 16 steps? It’s got potential but 16 is wayy too low

Whoaaaaaaaaaa

version 1.2 is out now! i’m pretty excited about this update :slight_smile: these are the major changes:

  • new: note parameter that can be quantized to a freely configurable scale with support for microtonality and Scala tuning files
    image
  • new: button for automatically setting the root pitch of a sample to the closest C
  • new: button for duplicating the sequence
  • improved: increase maximum number of steps from 16 to 64. you can choose how many sequencer lanes you want to see at once via the settings, otherwise there’s pagination.
  • improved: accessibility for people using screen readers

using scales it’s finally possible to create interesting melodic things by randomisation. for example, i created this pattern in about 10 minutes without touching the individual steps at all https://tahti.studio/bxybwkxj

the LFOs can also be used as arpeggiators: https://tahti.studio/exyxlady

!!! This is awesome!

i’ve just released version 1.3!

this release has a long list of changes, the most notable ones being the default sample library moving to a new open-source sample library and the DSP getting a major overhaul in terms of playback quality, modulation accuracy and de-clicking triggers.

smaller things include being able to send the delay to the three other master effects, downloading and importing your patterns as files, and various improvements to the trigger repeat features. oh and my personal favourite: the tempo is randomised each time a new pattern is created! isn’t it strange that most music software always start with a same fixed BPM? :slight_smile:

anyway, you can read the full change log at https://tahti.studio

Extraordinary functionality in a browser. Congratulations on your contribution to making the world of music creation a better place. I imagine all hardware manufacturers are shaking in their boots…

It still confuses me that the m and s next to each track select graphic doesn’t actually do anything ( it just displays their state, they’re aren’t toggle buttons )

I exported a stem from it , the loop/ region seemed a bit weird in audacity. Easy to tweak though.

Overall it’s very impressive and great for making loops / stems and nice to have width / ability to make things more stereo.
