This is a native android Drum Sequencer built to sound like the historic Roland TR-909 with a modern composing interface. Check it out on Google Play!

You should probably use the prefix "Show HN:" since you are promoting your own project.

Super fun! I am impressed with the multi-touch support on the "live" mode. If only the sequenced track would continue on in the background while in live mode though...

When testing on my own phone the background sequence continues to play! What kind of phone do you have?

It's an LG Volt. Seems like it is always running out of memory, so that could have something to do with it.

Thats unfortunate. It looks like that phone has 1GB of ram. I will try to optimize the performance of playing live sounds with a sequence in the background to need less memory but it might take a while. Hopefully it goes out in a future update sometime. Thanks for trying it out though!

A really cool enhancement to this would be if it had an option to evolve the selections each measure according to the rules of Conway's Game of Life.
