Free online percussion pads you can play in your browser
The Ajenza Percussion Pads tool is a free, playable pad kit that runs entirely in your web browser — no app, no sign-up and no downloads. Every hit is synthesized live with the Web Audio API, so you can tap the pads with a mouse, on a phone touch screen, or with your computer keyboard. Switch between three kits — Hand Drums (tabla, congas, bongos and djembe), World Percussion (cowbell, woodblock, claves, triangle, tambourine, shaker, guiro and agogo) and a full Drum Kit (kick, snare, clap, rimshot, hi-hats, crash and tom) — for a wide variety of percussion sounds.
Is the percussion pads tool free?
Yes — it is completely free, with no sign-up, no download and no watermark.
Which percussion instruments can I play?
Three kits of eight pads: Hand Drums, World Percussion and a Drum Kit. Switch kits to change all the pad sounds.
How do I play with my computer keyboard?

Does it work on a phone?
Yes. The pads are responsive, so you can tap them on any phone or tablet.
Do I need to install anything?
No. Sound is generated in the browser with the Web Audio API — nothing to install and no permissions required.
