How people use Sound Box

Load up to ten playable pads

Drag audio files (or record straight into the browser) and assign them to the number row for instant playback.

Layer ambience on command

Toggle the built-in white noise and rain beds, set their volumes, and blend them with your custom sounds.

Jam, loop, and remix

Each pad exposes volume, loop, and delete controls so you can sculpt a playable rig without leaving the page.

Power notes

Things to know before you dive in

  • Microphone selection uses the MediaDevices API—pick the interface you actually plugged in.
  • Slots persist until you clear them, so sessions can resume later without re-uploading.
  • Shortcuts display the actual keyboard code after calibration, which helps live performers.
