Premium Mechanical Keyboard Sound

Play authentic mechanical keyboard sounds as you type, right inside VS Code. No external audio player required.

Features

  • Real per-key sounds: each key plays its own recorded click, not a single generic sound.
  • Switchable keyboard sound packs: pick from a growing catalog of real keyboards via the Select Keyboard Sound Pack command. The default (Aula F75) is bundled and works offline; others are downloaded on first use and cached locally.
  • Broad key coverage: letters, digits, punctuation, Space, Enter (including auto-indent), Backspace, Tab (including space-expanded tabs), auto-closed brackets/quotes, and arrow-key/Home/End/PageUp/PageDown navigation.
  • No external dependencies: audio is played natively via node-web-audio-api, so there's nothing to install on your system.

Available keyboards

  • Aula F75 (bundled, default)
  • Leobog Hi75C Pro
  • Lofree Flow Lite 84
  • Mchose Ace 68
  • Mchose G98 V3
  • Mchose Mix 87
  • Weikav Nut 75
  • Wobkey Zen 65

More are added over time. Run Premium Mechanical Keyboard Sound: Select Keyboard Sound Pack to see the current list and switch.

Known limitations

  • Modifier keys pressed alone (Ctrl, Shift, Alt, Meta, CapsLock) don't produce sound. They never edit the document, and VS Code extensions have no access to raw keydown events without a webview.
  • Arrow keys, Home, End, PageUp, PageDown play an approximate directional sound based on cursor movement, since VS Code reports these as generic cursor-move events rather than naming the specific key pressed.
  • Terminal input isn't supported. Terminal keystrokes go straight to the shell process and aren't observable through the stable VS Code extension API.
