Corban responded by rewriting his dsp.js library to use Float32Array, which can now do 1000 FFTs on a 2 channel * 2048 sample buffer in 490ms, or 0.49ms per fft (js arrays take 2.577ms per fft, so a lot faster!). (..) beatdetection.js (..) Chris McCormick has been working on porting Pure Data to JavaScript, and already has some basic components built. (..) In order to do this he had to overcome some interesting problems, for example, how to load large binary voice databases into the page. The straightforward approach of using a JS array was brittle, with JS sometimes running out of stack space trying to initialize the array. After trying various obvious ways, Yury decided to use the web to his advantage, and pushed the binary data into a PNG, then loaded it into a canvas, where getImageData allows him to access the bytes very quickly, using another typed array. The browser takes care of downloading and re-inflating the data automatically.

link Wavetable Melody Generator

The wavetable synthesizer synthesizes a sound with pre-sampled (pre-synthesized) waveform. (..) The theory of wavetable synthesizer is very simple and its processor load is relatively low. However, it requires large amount of memory because there are wavetable data for source of sound. Therefore, following technics are applied (..) 1. Not reserve wavetables for each tone. It can also synthesize any tone with a wavetable with changing play back speed. 2. Not reserve all part of wavetable. Monotonous part can be replaced with a loop. 3. Decaying waveform can be simulated in envelope generator.

Tweet A Sound let's you design and share synth patches by way of the ever-popular Twitter. The software represents your patch via a compact string of numbers. The 140 character limit keeps your tweakable parameter count relatively low, but this could be welcome if you've ever found yourself overwhelmed by the deluge of options common to software synths.

What are they? "Sound mirrors." In an era before radar, these enormous structures were clever ways to trap soundwaves and hear incoming enemy airplanes before you could see them, and since the craft in question were slow-flying bi-planes, there was still time to do something about it.
