Midi in is not supported yet, i.e. you can't press a key on your connected MIDI keyboard to send a MIDI message to the worklet yet. You can simulate it with the keyboard on the left. Quoting the Help page (accessible with the "?" button on the top right):
"The MIDI IN keyboard will send MIDI messages to the worklet's MessagePort. Messages are objects of the form {type: ['noteon' | 'noteoff'], value: { note, octave, midi, frequency } }"
Using physical MIDI controls will be supported in future releases, though.
These are a bunch of demos: https://googlechromelabs.github.io/web-audio-samples/audio-w...
This particular app is meant more as a playground / sketch / sharing tool for DSP techniques, and imho it makes sense for it to be on the most immediately accessible platform, the Web.
However, it's possible to add Faust or C support to it in the future (using WebAssembly), a feature which will allow exporting your snippets directly to executable / VST.
It could be compiled with a webassembly backend and loaded, but... you could almost copy/paste the process() js function into c++ and it would compile, almost.
Nice, I have thought about this before! Got a link?
For anyone interested on the stack, the visual part is React / Redux SPA. I use Firebase's Firestore as a DB (I wanted to try it and so far it's really cool) and Google Cloud Functions for the APIs. The repo is hosted on Gitlab and is a Lerna monorepo, which is amazing.
Any chance of adding a piano roll for playing short melodies(and perhaps chords with the proper processor)?
I especially like that you've included a share mechanism. I built an audio dsp playground before, but didn't spend enough time on it to provide that.
Are you going to add a discovery page to browse people's creations?
Can somebody ELI5 to me, what this is about? Or point me in the right direction perhaps.
This application allows you to write, test and save / share them. The idea is to have an online playground to share DSP code, like a sort of JSFiddle, but for audio.
