Beatdle
Most music dles test what you know. Beatdle tests your ear: a short drum loop plays, and you program it back on a step grid.

How Beatdle works
Listen once. Play the target beat and memorise it.
Program the grid. Place kick, snare and hi hat hits across the steps.
Check your version. Play your guess back.
Submit. Match the beat within six attempts.
A basic rock pattern
| Drum | Where it usually goes |
|---|---|
| Kick | Beats 1 and 3 |
| Snare | Beats 2 and 4 |
| Hi hat | Every step or every other step |
Not every Beatdle beat follows this pattern, but it is a solid first guess.
Common Beatdle questions
How many times can I hear the beat?
Once per guess, so six listens at most across your six attempts.
Do I need to read music?
No. A sense of rhythm is enough.
Is there a new beat every day?
Yes. A fresh drum loop goes up each day.
Beatdle strategy
- Tap your foot to find beat one.
- Kicks and snares often trade places, so listen for which is lower.
- Place the hi hat last. It usually fills the gaps evenly.
