I just released the alpha of Web Audio Studio.

It's a browser-based tool for writing real Web Audio API code and visualizing the runtime graph it produces. You can inspect connections, follow signal flow, and insert analysers to see what's happening between nodes.

Everything runs locally in the browser. No signup. Desktop-only for now.

Would love feedback from anyone working with #WebAudio or #DSP.

I've worked out how to output discrete values from an LFO’s continuous wave. I can use these multipliers to fluctuate any prop over time. Pretty endless possibilities. In this case, I'm altering a ratio that controls probability (chance) of playback. #WebAudioAPI

Last installment of my "make a Game Boy emulator" series. I cover audio, memory, and timing this time! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Be5v8E21pEQ

One neat consequence of this video is that it got me to actually start learning about #GameBoy audio so I might have a "how game boy audio works" video some day. It also got me to learn about the #WebaudioApi to make the demo waveforms/visualizations

Daniel's deep dive into the Web Audio API attempts to bring retro Gameboy vibes to life, proving that nostalgia is only a square wave away 🎮➡️📈. Who knew that painfully recreating 8-bit sounds could be the pinnacle of modern web development? 👾🔊 Let's all pretend we needed another reason to procrastinate with audio nerdiness! 🎶💻
