Virtual Looper: Browser Loop Station for Hand Gestures
The ultimate virtual looper for modern browser music creation. Build lush arrangements from scratch by stacking live piano passes, guitar strumming, synth basslines, and finger-tapped beats with flawless quantisation.
How Hand Gesture Tracking Works
Tunevate uses your device’s webcam and client-side computer vision to track 21 hand landmarks in 3D space with sub-millisecond precision. Here is how your hands shape chords, melodies, and sound parameters:
Set BPM & Arm Recording
Select your tempo from 60 to 200 BPM. Toggle Record to trigger a 4-beat visual metronome count-in so you start playing on the downbeat.
Establish Your Root Loop
Play 1, 2, or 4 bars of harmony using the Grand Piano or Acoustic Guitar voice. As soon as the cycle ends, your phrase seamlessly loops without interruption.
Layer Synths, Bass & Beats
Keep the loop running while switching instruments to overdub counter-melodies, basslines, or step-sequenced drum grooves.
Built for Real-Time Music Creation
Engineered with Tone.js, Web Audio API, and MediaPipe AI for professional synthesis, responsive acoustic instruments, and seamless loop recording.
Zero-Lag Seamless Looping
Tone.js TransportClock handles sample-accurate boundary looping so seams never pop or stutter.
Multitrack Canvas
Inspect every recorded track on an interactive visual canvas with individual mute, solo, and volume faders.
Export & Share Sessions
Save your multi-instrument loops into portable `.tvate` files that open on any computer instantly.
12-Key Harmony Lock
All overdubs stay harmonically aligned with your selected key, making dissonance impossible.
Integrated Drum Machine
Combine looped melodic passages with 31-slot finger percussion kits and 16-step patterns.
100% Free & Private
Zero plugins, zero accounts, and zero cloud uploads. Operates completely in your browser's local memory.

Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about playing this instrument online with hand gestures.
How is a virtual looper different from a physical loop pedal?
A physical loop pedal requires hardware cables, audio interfaces, and foot switches. Tunevate's virtual looper runs entirely inside your browser, automatically quantises your timing to a master clock, and lets you layer different virtual instruments (piano, synth, guitar, drums) within a single software canvas.
Can I use the virtual looper with my webcam hand gestures?
Yes! The looper was specifically built to record webcam hand gestures in real time, translating your physical hand shapes into quantised musical tracks.
