BTD Pocket Synth

A tiny browser synth for quick ideas, playful sounds, and creative sparks.
Touch tip: Tap Turn Synth On, then tap/hold pads or keys. Turn on Arp for moving chord patterns. Key Lock helps beginners stay in key.
1. Turn Synth On First
Browsers need one tap or click before sound can play. Start low, turn up slowly, and tap Synth On/Off as needed.
2. Play Your Way
Use mouse or computer keyboard. Number keys 1–8 play pads. Letter keys play notes.
Use touch on iPad or phone. Tap and hold pads or keys. Turn on Arp for moving patterns.
3. Headphones Help
For the best sound, use headphones or speakers. Tiny phone speakers may hide the low end.
