About Online Piano & Drum Pad

The Online Piano & Drum Pad puts a playable instrument in your browser. In piano mode, play the on-screen keyboard with your mouse, a touchscreen, or your computer keys — each note shows the key that triggers it. Shift octaves to reach higher or lower registers, hold notes with sustain, and toggle the note labels.

Switch to drum mode for a pad of core kit sounds: kick, snare, hi-hat and open hat, clap, tom, rim and cymbal — enough to sketch a beat or practice basic patterns. A volume control and selectable sound character round out the controls.

All the sounds are synthesized in real time with the Web Audio API — no samples to download, nothing uploaded, nothing installed. That makes it a free, instant way to check a melody, test an interval by ear, or noodle on a beat wherever you have a browser.

How to use Online Piano & Drum Pad

  1. Choose Piano or Drums mode.
  2. Play with your mouse, touchscreen, or the computer keys shown on each note or pad.
  3. In piano mode, shift the octave, enable sustain, and toggle key labels as needed.
  4. Adjust the volume and sound character to taste.

Frequently asked questions

Yes — both the piano keyboard and the drum pad are completely free to play, with no credits, account or time limit.

Yes. Each piano key and drum pad shows the computer key that triggers it, so you can play melodies and beats without touching the mouse. Turn on key labels if you also want the note names displayed.

Eight kit staples: kick, snare, closed hi-hat, open hat, clap, tom, rim and cymbal — enough to program the feel of most basic grooves by hand.

Every note and drum hit is synthesized on the fly by your browser’s Web Audio engine. Nothing is downloaded during play and nothing you play is recorded or uploaded.

The octave control shifts the visible keyboard up or down so you can reach registers beyond the keys on screen. Sustain lets notes ring after you release them, like a piano’s sustain pedal.
