Cloud loops can run at different lengths and drift out of sync; the page says saved songs stay in the current browser.

Field notes

The help text maps clouds to rhythmic patterns and raindrops, while leaves carry pitched notes; mushrooms and stumps add drum and bass parts. Users can edit step patterns, set probability or ratchet repeats, create sections, and use a keyboard piano or microphone whistling. The page says saved songs remain in the current browser and includes a 15-second recording and sharing flow. Victor identifies himself as a programmer and introduces Jack as a real dog.
