Find the good part.

Sample & chop

Drop in your audio. Play cuts from the keyboard, loop a chop, and hear your tweaks as you make them. Nudge boundaries, shape the envelope, and put the pieces on your pads.

Keep adding layers.

128 pads · 8 banks

Drums over here. Chops over there. Play banks together, or set a bank to mono when one sound should cut the last. Shape eight mixer tracks and arrange your sequences into a song.

Give it a melody.

36 built-in synths

Start with a bass, lead, key, or pad. Choose your scale, turn the filter, and shape the envelope. Play live with MIDI or draw notes in the piano roll.

Make it. Keep it. Come back to it. Autosave for the moment. Portable projects and recovery backups for later. Export your song or individual stems when it’s ready.

A few things
before you start.

Is this a plugin or a standalone app?

Oma Beats is a standalone desktop app. You don’t need a DAW to use it. It doesn’t currently run as a VST/AU plugin or host external plugins; the 36 synth instruments are built in.

Can I bring my own sample packs?

Yes. Unzip your pack, then choose Browse packs → Import pack folder in the app. You can also drag audio onto a pad. Splice and other third-party packs aren’t included; download your sounds through your own account and follow their licenses.

Can I sample a YouTube clip?

YouTube imports require the desktop app, which has an optional importer with clip boundaries and a direct path to the chop editor. It requires yt-dlp and FFmpeg installed separately. Only import audio you have permission to use. Read the setup guide.

Where do my projects go?

Autosave and your imported library stay on your device. Save a portable .omabeats project to keep a named backup with its audio included, or export a stereo WAV. The website demo is separate and doesn’t save to the desktop app.
