Padwolf is a free beat maker that runs entirely in your browser. Open it and the pads are loaded and playable โ no installation needed!
16 pads and a step sequencer Tap the pads to play them, then program patterns on the sequencer grid. MPC-style swing, per-pad pitch, fine tune, volume and FX, and multiple sequences and blocks to build a full arrangement.
Factory kits Trap, boom bap, lofi, drill, amapiano and so on. Every kit loads with its own signature groove at its own tempo and swing, so you start on a beat instead of an empty grid.
Your own samples Load your own audio, trim and tune it in the sample editor, and put it on any pad.
MIDI Play the pads from a connected controller. A built-in MIDI tester shows exactly what the browser is receiving, which helps when a controller is not behaving.
Export Bounce the beat to WAV, FLAC or OGG, export the individual samples of a bank, or save the whole project and open it again later.

Padwolf's answer
Two things. First, it starts on a beat. Every kit arrives with its own signature groove at its own tempo and swing, so pressing play on a fresh page gives you something to work with instead of an empty grid and silence. Switch kits and the groove follows โ until you edit a step, from which point the pattern is yours and only the sounds change.
Second, it behaves like an instrument rather than a web page. Timing is sample-accurate, the pads respond immediately, and exports come out exactly as you heard them. There is no upload step anywhere in the app, so your samples and projects stay on your machine.
Padwolf's answer
Nothing to install โ open the page and the pads respond. You get 8 banks of 16 pads, a step sequencer with MPC-style swing, per-pad pitch, fine tune, volume and FX, your own samples with a built-in editor, MIDI controller support, and export to WAV, FLAC or OGG โ as a finished beat, as the individual samples of a bank, or as a project you can reopen later. All free.
Padwolf's answer
People who want to make a beat without setting up a DAW: beginners learning drum programming, producers sketching an idea quickly, and anyone on a machine where installing software isn't an option โ a school or work computer, a borrowed laptop, a Chromebook. The 57 English and 32 German guides on patterns, swing and mixing are aimed at the first group in particular.
Padwolf's answer
Padwolf runs entirely in the browser as a standards-based web app. Beats are played, sequenced and exported on your own device, and MIDI controllers are supported through the browser directly.
Padwolf's answer
Padwolf comes from a straightforward question: how much of a native sampler can you actually get in a browser tab?
For a long time the honest answer was "not much", and that was fair. Padwolf is an attempt to move that line a little โ proper pads and banks, a sequencer with swing, real sample editing, and exports you can take into a mix. Whether it gets all the way to a desktop instrument is for the person using it to decide. What the browser gives back is that there is nothing to install: you open the page and it's there.
