online sound toy : beatarator

Rockstar run an annual thing for their employees to do something creative apart from the fancy and full of fun games that they make. This year, they put together beaterator. It's a fun little looping audio sequencer. You can make up your own loops by using the step sequencer and the sounds they provide, or upload your own (maximum of 10 @ 1mb each).

This is quite fun and simple to use, along the same lines as those acid music making programs that were so popular a few years ago. All done in flash, and it popped up a warning saying that it doesn't perform so well in firefox and they recommend internet explorer. I threw caution to the wind and used firefox anyway and it seemed okay to me.

beaterator cheap as in free.

This thing is my new reason to procrastinate...in any case, it's one of the best, if not THE best online mixer/music-generator I've seen. I used to play with the old SS7x7 (site now dead) and thought that was cool, but this looks way more intuitive and fun...awesome find.
