Can I chop and slice my own samples online?

Yes. Load any audio file into Shuffle Drummer's sampler, place slice markers by hand, split it into 16 equal slices, or snap the markers to the transients. Every chop lands on a pad, ready to play and sequence — the classic MPC chopping workflow, in your browser.

Which audio formats can I load?

WAV, MP3, FLAC, OGG, AIFF, M4A and Opus — anything your browser can decode. Files are decoded and processed locally in your browser.

Is the online sampler free?

Yes. You can load, chop and play samples for free with no signup. A free account unlocks saving your projects and WAV export.

Does it work on mobile?

Yes. The sampler is built entirely on the Web Audio API and runs in any modern browser on desktop and mobile — nothing to download or install.

Q: Can I remove the drums from a sample?

Yes. The DRUMS button separates the harmonic part (melody, bass, vocals) from the percussion and keeps only the harmonic layer, so you can play your own drums on top. It works offline in the browser; on dense mixes some residue remains.

Shuffle Drummer has a full online sampler built right in: load your own audio, slice it, chop it, and play the pieces on pads — MPC-style, entirely in your browser. No download, no plugin, and free to try with no signup.

Online sampler in Shuffle Drummer: a waveform chopped into six colored slices with numbered slice markers, and the SLICE, DRUMS and PITCH buttons — The sampler tab: one loop, six chops, each marker becomes a pad.

How to chop a sample online, in 4 steps

Load your sound — hit BROWSE and pick a loop, a vinyl rip or a one-shot. WAV, MP3, FLAC, OGG, AIFF, M4A and Opus all work.
Slice it — click on the waveform to drop markers where you want each chop, split the whole sample into 16 equal slices in one click, or snap the markers to the transients so every hit starts exactly on its attack. Zoom into the waveform to place each marker precisely.
Play the chops on pads — every slice is mapped to a pad (up to 64 slices). Tap them, play them from a MIDI controller, and flip the order until the phrase sounds right.
Sequence and export — lay your chops into the step sequencer next to the drums, add swing, then bounce the result to WAV stems or a full master for your DAW.

An online sample chopper that thinks like an MPC

Chopping is about feel, not menus. That's why the sampler keeps everything on one screen: waveform, colored slice regions, pads and sequencer. Each marker starts a chop that runs to the next marker, so what you see on the waveform is exactly what the pad plays. Retrigger, re-order and build a whole beat out of one flip — the way beatmakers have chopped on samplers since the 90s.

Sampler pads in Shuffle Drummer: sample slices S1 to S6 laid out on a 4x4 MPC-style pad grid next to the drum pads — The pads tab: slices S1–S6 ready to play next to the drum sounds.

Remove the drums from any sample

Found a loop with the perfect chords but a drum track you don't want? The ⊘ DRUMS button separates the harmonic content (melody, bass, vocals) from the percussion and keeps only the harmonic layer, so you can play your own drums on top. It runs offline in your browser in a few seconds and can be undone in one click. It's a classic signal-processing separation, not an AI stem splitter: on dense mixes some residue stays, but it strips the beat well enough to rebuild the groove your way.

What the sampler does

Slice & chop — manual markers, 16 equal slices, or snap to transients
Up to 64 slices — mapped to pads, playable from the screen or a MIDI controller
4 sample slots — load four sounds and switch between them live
Pitch — tune the sample up or down, chipmunk it or drop it low
Remove drums — keep the melody, lose the beat
Vintage & lo-fi color — bitcrush, tape emulation and vintage FX for dusty, boom-bap textures
Sequence it — lay your chops into the step sequencer alongside the drums
WAV export — bounce your flip to stems or a full master, straight into your DAW

Private by design

Your samples don't go to a server to be processed: decoding, slicing, drum removal and export all happen locally with the Web Audio API. That makes the sampler fast, and it means you can chop a record without uploading it anywhere. A project is only stored online if you choose to save it to your account.

Made for lo-fi, boom bap and beyond

The sampler was built by Mani Deïz, a French hip-hop producer making beats since 1998, with three friends. It's the sample-chopping workflow they always wanted — fast, tactile, and free. Pair it with the built-in online drum machine and its swing engine, or go straight to the lo-fi beat maker, and you've got a complete beat maker in one browser tab.
