JavascriptSynth

A (mostly) fully featured synthesizer built using the webaudio API, check out the live page at https://shane.cranor.org/synth !

Current Features

• Infinite OSCs
• 4 waveforms, sin, triangle, sawtooth, square
• Custom scales based on the note equation
• Keyboard support (awsedftghujikol;') //or something like that
• Modular OSC pitch input field (read manual on page)
• Modular OSC amplitude

Potential Future Directions:

//easy:

• Add filters (lowpass, highpass, bandpass)
• Add distortion and other effects
  • Add effects array and allow chaining
• Add sequencer/multiple sequencers

//unknown difficulty:

• Try to reduce latency/input lag
• Midi input
• Export recorded audio
• Hook up output of osc as a variable to another osc
• Make ADSR

//Difficult

• Polyphonic synth
• Parametric EQ with cute interface
• Switch to node based interface
  • Still use text based interface, just use the input pipes as variables
  • IE an OSC block with a note and amplitude input would have two text fields and by default, the note field would contain noteIn and the amplitude field would contain volIn
  • There will be an option to add input pipes and rename them.
  • Potentially a way to have default values for input pipes if nothing is connected to them
  • Custom waveforms built outside of web audio api OSC object?
