I just released a piece of free mobile software, check it out if you like.. It is a simple drum machine application for S60 3rd edition mobile phones. The big idea behind this application was that I bought a guitar and couldn't find any decent drum machine or metronome application for my mobile so I had to do it by myself. After it got too good, I had to make it even better for the public release, hehe.. :)

Cool. Now stop wanking and do a demo.

Can it load custom samples?

Aha, I'm just about to order an N95 and this was one of my planned projects. Guess I'll have to do something competitive now... :)

parapete - a tracker maybe?

GaJiN: we'll see!

Anyhow, it looks like good fun in the vid. I can't wait to have a play with it.

Heh. I hate my N95 and was going to go back to sony, but all these cool things keep coming out for S60. Shame really, as i think the N95 is a big stinking pile of shit.

Gargaj: AWESOME!

very nice, please add it to pouet so i can thumb it up

Don't give them ideas. It's not even a demotool.

Thanks, works lika a charm on my Nokia 5500 so now I have something to annoy my co-workers with tomorrow! :)

ekoli, that's good news. I think 5500 was the last screen layout I hadn't tested BeatEd on. It has that perfectly square 1:1 screen.. Nice to hear that it works on that too.

Gragaj: haha, i just love how this thing "looks" around :)

suckho: Works fine on a 6120 Classic as well, but you probably already knew that.

i can only ask
any chance it'll work on my sony ericson w200i ?

Or do it during a train ride, I'm sure you're fellow passengers will thank you for it :-)

Heh... Nice, although what I really want to see is a tracker with sample generation for some sort of portable platform. I usually write music in my head when I get bored and I can never remember it long enough to get it into anything.

And now I want an S60.

meebzork: missing a sample editor in milkytracker?

Yeah meebzork, Milkytracker for Windows Mobile has for quite a while had sine, tri, saw, pulse and noise generators as well as mix-paste, rendering multichan patterns to sample slots and 3/10 band EQ etc. How hard did you look? :)

Damn, I'm an idiot. I meant something like Nitrotracker (I don't have any of that kind of mobile device, only consoles, and I don't know why I have those) with sample generation although now that I think of it I'm too lazy to put anything on anything anyway and I really have no musical skill so it really doesn't matter.

BeatEd v1.11 with improved support for multiple sample kits has been released and is available for download.

Also, couple of new sample kits are available: Nintendo Game Boy 8 bit chip tune kit by Heatbeat and Roland TR-808 analog drum machine kit by AMJ.

Roland CR78 and TR-909 kits by AMJ will be available very soon.

We are still lacking a C64 SID drum kit. I someone has too much time and/or good SID drum samples on his harddrive I would be very pleased to have a sample kit of those! See the sample kit info:
