live/jam: 3D music devices that light up as you play

live/jam is a free browser studio where up to four people jam together. The three instruments (chords, keys and drum pads) are procedural Three.js models on one grid: brushed aluminum, a screen under glass with a live oscilloscope, and keys that glow in the color of each note and fade slowly. It renders with WebGPU and falls back to WebGL 2.

Try it: live/jam - beat with friends
I’d love to hear how it runs on your GPU and browser.

Nice! Runs fine on my macbook + brave browser.

Some unsolicited thoughts:

  1. it would be better if everything fit inside the window, like in a standalone app, without scrolling
  2. recording was hard to wrap my head around, the metronome is not in sync with the pattern and overall hard to get a good result.
  3. consider making the sound settings part of the 3d instrument, that would feel more immersive IMO
