CheckBeat: Audio Sample Triggering Tool

Key Features

• CheckBeat is a virtual drum machine designed for quickly creating simple beats.
• It can be used like a fancy metronome and is handy when you need to create a backing beat for a drummer-less jam session.Programming a beat is as simple as clicking a few checkboxes.
• It plays sound using .wav files, so you can use the built-in drum sounds, or any sound you can dream of.
• You can set the note length (check resolution) of the checkboxes and can set the tempo pretty much any number of beats per minute.
• You can also use less than the full 16 checkboxes in the pattern if you want to create a beat in a different time signature like 5/4 or 9/8.CheckBeat was written using SDL2_mixer and no additional sound libraries are needed.
