PULSE·CITY
Open Studio

Quick start

Eight steps from cold boot to a track you can share. Total time: ~3 minutes if you're curious.

  1. 01

    Boot the audio engine

    Open the landing page and hit BOOT. Browsers require a user gesture before they allow audio to play — this unlocks Web Audio for the rest of your session.

  2. 02

    Land in the Studio

    You arrive at the livecoding studio. The editor starts empty (or with your last session's code). Drop in a snippet with Cmd+K, ask the chat to compose something, or open the DJ deck — then press Play in the transport bar.

  3. 03

    Open the DJ deck · Cmd+J

    Pick a genre (Deep House, Techno, Ambient…), a key, a BPM, and drag the Energy / Space / Brightness sliders. Hit COMPOSE and the AI regenerates the track in that style.

  4. 04

    Steer with chat

    Type into the chat panel: "darker filter sweep on the bass, less delay on the hats". The agent replies with a diff — click Listen to hear it, Keep to commit, Reject to revert.

  5. 05

    Edit the code · Ctrl+Enter to evaluate

    Autocomplete is on by default, hover for docs, multi-cursor with Cmd+Click. Every time you press Ctrl+Enter the scheduler swaps your pattern on the next cycle — no audio dropout.

  6. 06

    Browse snippets · Cmd+K

    24 curated patterns across drums, bass, melody, chords, FX, groove, modulation, and scales. Click any one to insert at the cursor.

  7. 07

    Save what works · Cmd+S

    Hit SAVE to store the current pattern. Toggle Public to get a /p/<id> link anyone can open and play. Load past patterns from [ PATTERNS ] in the header.

  8. 08

    Reference and escape hatches

    F1 opens the Docs modal with searchable reference. ? opens the keyboard shortcut cheatsheet. Cmd+Shift+P opens the command palette for every action.
