Online Flute

How the Online Flute Works

This free online flute lets you play a soft, breathy flute sound in your browser, with no download, install or sign-up. It uses recorded flute samples across 37 keys, so you can try melodies, practice scales or add a light woodwind line to a song idea. A progress circle shows while the sounds load, and playing starts once every note is ready.

Play with Keyboard, Mouse or Touch

Play the flute by clicking the keys, tapping them on a phone or tablet, or typing on your computer keyboard. The bottom letter row plays the white keys and the row above plays the black keys, with the top letter row and number row taking you higher. The Keys and Notes buttons show or hide the labels, and the Play guide shows the layout.

Breath and Glide

Hold a key for a steady, breathy tone, and drag across the keys to glide from note to note. The silver flute illustration sits above the keys as you play. The Sustain Pedal is on by default, and holding the space bar acts as a pedal.

Transpose, Volume and Sound Settings

The Sound panel groups its round knobs into Notes, Space, Tone and Master. Notes controls playback speed, transpose, sustain length and touch dynamics, Space adds reverb, room size and echo, Tone shapes bass, mid, treble and warmth, and Master sets stereo width, compression and overall volume. Drag a knob up or down to change it, double-click to reset it, or pick a ready preset such as Concert hall, Warm vintage or Cathedral. The Transpose buttons move the flute up or down by semitones to match a singer or another instrument, the volume slider goes up to 200 percent, and your settings are remembered for your next visit.

Record, Play Back and Download

Press Record and play, and your take appears on a timeline where you can play it back, drag to select just one part and clear it to start again. The Demo button plays a built-in tune so you can hear the flute straight away, and it can be recorded too. Open the Download panel to save your recording as an MP3 or WAV file, choose the bitrate, sample rate and mono or stereo, download the whole take or only the selected part, normalize the loudness, let the last notes ring out, remove silence at the start and add a fade in or fade out. All processing happens in your own browser, so your music stays on your device.

Works on Every Screen

The page adjusts to desktop, tablet and mobile screens. Use the buttons at the top right to switch between the light and dark theme or to go full screen, and on a small phone turn the device sideways to see more of the instrument.
