Free 8-bit music jingles you can rewrite note by note

This set has short chiptune melodies such as a jig, a waltz, a chase, a blues shuffle, a march and a lullaby. Each tune is built from square and triangle layers, and the editor lays the melody out note by note. A new Pitch on a layer changes the tune. Your AI agent composes a jingle with you for your own level, title screen or app.

Writing an 8-bit tune

How is an 8-bit tune laid out?

Most tunes here split the parts the way old consoles did. Square waves play the melody and the chords. A triangle wave plays the bass. Noise layers play the drums. Start after places each note in time.

How does Bouncing Ball slow to a stop?

Bouncing Ball has eight square notes that fall from 1,865 Hz to 622 Hz. The gap between notes shrinks from 0.3 to 0.04 seconds, and each note is shorter than the one before. Slide set to 3 gives every bounce a small lift.

What makes Sneaky Shuffle swing?

Sneaky Shuffle plays its notes in long and short pairs. A long note waits 0.18 seconds for the next note, and a short note waits 0.09 seconds. Even Start after steps turn the shuffle into a straight march.
