How did you guys discover Online Sequencer?

Curious.

I searched up free music maker, and this popped up, it also came with a treat: chat

[MrMusic_Man08]

I was searching for a music community and this popped up and was simple enough for me to use

[DarrelJohnson]

I searched for an online piano and was kind of dissapointed because the sound sucked

>i moved countries
>no longer have access to my old teams account and my old friends
>i'm a lot more invested in music right now than ever
>present day

if you didn't catch on, all this happened just because i carelessly accepted to be in my friends' music group
that one decision changed a lot about my life given how music became my hobby and chat has really made me grow up more than i thought.

I discovered OS from this old Vsauce video:

Also, here is another forum post from awhile ago that asks the same question, and has even more responses:

was looking for a way to make music for a game i was making on scratch when i was like 13

[Benvisions]

I found this site back in early 2020 (or late 2019, I forgot) when I did a site search. I saw interesting things at this site, like chat, forums, and even the users. I made an account on June 25, 2020 (easily said in my account info). I didn't go so often until August 9, 2020. I was blocked on October 20, 2020 (I was thinking about National Banvisions Day every year on October 20), and was unbanned on April 20, 2021, but didn't come back until Friday, April 23. At that time, it looked like the first time I was here, new users, new features, and everything. I didn't know people like hadlee, LarryTheMaskMan, and many more people. When I came back, I also made much much better songs. And the Benvisions legacy continues.
