Anyone who needs a beat: rappers and singers who want something to write to right now, bedroom producers who need a drums-plus-808 foundation to build on in their DAW, and total beginners — no music theory required. Pick a style, hit Cook, then tweak what you hear.
AI song generators hand you a finished audio file you can't change. Cooked Beats generates the pattern itself — every kick, snare, hat and 808 note is on the grid, editable per step, and exports as MIDI and WAV files that drop straight into FL Studio, Ableton, Logic or any DAW. You shape the result; nothing is a black box, and everything you make is yours, royalty-free.
Swing delays every other 16th note by a small amount, so the beat leans and bounces instead of marching on a rigid grid. 0% is perfectly straight (techno, trap); higher values push toward the shuffled MPC feel of boom bap, UK garage and J Dilla-style production.
Humanize adds tiny random variations to the timing and loudness of each hit — the way a real drummer never plays two hits identically. It's the difference between a beat that sounds programmed and one that sounds performed.
Every style uses a groove model built from real drum programming rules: Markov-chain kick logic so kicks breathe instead of machine-gunning, kick/snare exclusion, hi-hat choke (an open hat silences the closed hat), genre accent maps that shape velocity across the bar, and probabilistic fills in the last beat. Then a key-aware 808 engine writes a bassline that locks to your kick pattern in the key you choose.
