How it works

From dots and dashes to notes.

  1. The Morse rhythm

    A dot is an eighth note, a dash three eighths, with rests of one, three and seven for the gaps.

  2. Notes from a scale

    Each dot and dash takes a note from the scale you pick, so the code becomes a tune.

  3. Play, save or share

    Play it with the playhead on the piano roll, save a WAV, or copy a link to the same tune.
