Sound Drop AR - Build beats in your space.
Turn any surface into a playful drum machine. Place reactors in AR, drop bouncing balls, and let physics create evolving rhythms. Every reactor carries its own sound—tap to pick one from 100+ effects, or shuffle for happy accidents. Add beat loops and tone sequences, tweak speed, bounciness, and gravity, and watch (and hear) your room groove.
How it works
- Move your device to scan—use the focus brackets to place your first reactor.
- Tap + to add more reactors and shape the rhythm in space.
- Tap a reactor to choose its sound from the built-in library (or randomize).
- Adjust Speed, Bounciness, and Gravity to sculpt the feel.
- Blend in beat loops and tone sequences at 125 or 130 BPM.
Highlights
- 100+ sound effects for reactors, plus curated loops & tone lines
- Real physics = natural grooves (balls live ~10s for constant motion)
- Tap-to-assign sounds with searchable picker & instant preview
- Quick BPM switch (125 / 130) and global speed control
- Glass UI (iOS 26) — cleaner, brighter, more touch-friendly
- Pause/Resume, randomize sets, long-press to delete reactors
- Works offline. No logins. No ads.
What’s New
- Complete UI redesign with the new iOS 26 Glass style
- New coaching overlay & focus square for faster placement
- Rebuilt audio engine & sound browser (search, preview, tap-to-apply)
- Record an audio session and share by mail or Air-Drop
- Snappier performance, smoother animations
- Pan on empty space to move the directional light (orbit + height) for dynamic shadows
- General polish across AR placement, labels, shadows, and controls
Tip: Spread reactors at different heights and tweak gravity for polyrhythms. Short bounces = tighter grooves; higher throws = airy, evolving patterns.
Enjoy exploring rhythms in 3D
