Drum Machine
A song needs a pulse before you can sing to it. The drum machine is part of the LandChords all-in-one songwriting workspace — a 16-step sequencer that locks to your tempo so you can lay down a groove and start recording over it without leaving the page.

Tap the grid to place kick, snare, hi-hats, and more across 16 steps. The pattern follows the song tempo and time signature, and a moving playhead shows you where you are in the bar.
Found a groove you like? Save the pattern and reuse it on the next song. Start from a preset when you want a quick foundation, then tweak it to taste.
Combine the drums with your chords and bake the whole thing into a backing track. Loop a section, hit record in the Vocal Studio, and sing over a beat that is already in time.
Is there a free online drum machine in LandChords?
Yes. The 16-step drum sequencer is part of the editor and works on every plan, with nothing to install.
Can I use my own drum patterns?
Yes. You can program patterns step by step and save them to reuse across songs, or start from a built-in preset.
Can I record vocals over the drums?
Yes. Bake the drums and chords into a backing track, then loop a section and record in the Vocal Studio so your takes line up with the beat.
