Make your first song in Basic, or explore every control in Advanced. An optional learning tutor guides you as you create. Both versions are free, with no sign-up. Your music stays in your browser.
Shotgun Ninjas Virtual Studio is a browser-native digital audio workstation built by Shotgun Ninjas Productions. It runs entirely in your browser using the Web Audio API — no plugins, no Flash, no cloud processing required.
Layer drums, melodies, bass, guitar, and vocals. Mix with a full FX rack and EQ. Record from a MIDI controller. Export your finished track as a WAV or MP3 — all without ever leaving the tab.
Start in Basic with an editable beat, add bass and a tune, then save your song. Switch to Advanced for the full studio.
Per-track EQ, FX rack, four global send buses, mix presets, and a master limiter — all running in Web Audio.
Draw notes or record live from a MIDI controller. Supports velocity, groove swing, and clip-based arrangement.
Twelve HQ CC0 sampled instruments, including Kawai and Steinway grands. Upload your own sound to create a keyboard instrument.
An optional tutor explains one small task at a time. Turn it on or off in Basic or Advanced, with more practice in Lessons and The Dojo.
No accounts, no paywalls, no ads. Your projects live in your browser. Export WAV or MP3 anytime.
Open the studio, load the Lo-Fi Smoke demo, then hit B to bounce. Your first track in under a minute.
