The editor is offline at the moment. Splitting a record into its parts happens on our server, and it is not answering right now. Nothing is wrong with your track — try again in a few minutes. The browser editor does all of this on your own machine and does not need us to be running.

    1. Intro

      The song starts at the drop with just the singing. After the intro's length, the beat comes in and the song carries on.

      Put the first kick on the white line — tap Likely drop on the waveform, or drag — then press Set the drop here.

      Set the drop first — then pick how the intro goes.
