Each drum pad synthesizes a realistic percussion sound with Web Audio API: kick uses a pitch-swept sine that falls from 150 to 45 Hz, snare mixes noise with a 190 Hz tone, hi-hats use filtered noise, toms are pitched drums, crash is high-pass filtered noise. Nothing is sampled, nothing is recorded — every hit is built from scratch in your browser in a fraction of a millisecond. That is exactly how the early drum machines did it, and the sound still works. Drums are the floor every other instrument stands on: rock, pop, hip-hop, funk, reggae — strip the drums away and most songs lose their spine. A real kit asks you to coordinate four limbs at once; here you get nine pads (kick, snare, closed and open hi-hat, three toms, a crash and a ride cymbal) and your two index fingers are enough. The first thing almost everyone tries, before any lesson or tutorial, is the same beat: boom, clap, boom-boom, clap. You already know it. Play it once and you will understand why drummers never get bored.
Click the pads or press number keys 1-9 to play. Press Record to capture your beat as a WAV file. If you have never touched a drum kit, start with the beat we mentioned: kick on beats 1 and 3, snare on 2 and 4, hi-hat in steady eighth notes. That pattern is the spine of half the songs on the radio. Once it stops falling apart, start messing with it: double the kick just before the snare, open the hi-hat at the end of a bar, drop a crash at the top of a phrase. The hi-hat is your metronome — keep it even and everything else can get weird without losing the groove. Record an eight-bar loop, download it, and use it as a backing track for guitar practice, singing, or your own production. All free, no signup, and the audio never leaves your device.

All the basics: rock, pop, hip-hop, ballad, funk and more, by combining kick, snare and hi-hat.
No, every sound is synthesized: a pitch sweep for the kick, filtered noise for snare and cymbals. It is closer to a classic drum machine than a recorded kit.
Yes — the alternating kick and snare pattern is the classic exercise for hand and foot independence.
Yes, download the loop as WAV and import it into any audio or video editor.

Perfect: no sticks to break things with, instant sound, and a real beat within the first minute.
A drum machine programs patterns for you; here you are the performer in real time, with WAV recording built in.
Around 60-80 BPM with a simple rock pattern, then speed up gradually. Evenness on the hi-hat matters more than speed.
A short roll on the toms between song sections. Rehearse it here: three toms left to right, from low to high.
The basic rock beat lands on day one; keeping it steady for a full minute takes about a week of practice.
