benny! Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 Really cool project.About the replay...any info on how CPU consuming the replay will be esp.on mobiles? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lazer Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 Cool! I've been using jsfxr for mine. It's too late for me to switch now, but I'll play around with it anyway. Are there any file size estimates for an x second looping track for example? (Edit: Just ran into a bug in Demo 2. When tabbing away in Canary the track doesn't stop and doesn't keep going properly - just plays the last note before your tab-off perpetually and resumes the rest when you tab back) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 I get the same issue with all demos linked above.I also have the feeling (especially in the Giana Sisters Demo) that the tracks are not running in sync. At lease the beat is stuttering. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rezoner Posted September 4, 2013 Author Share Posted September 4, 2013 @benny: I wouldn't dare using it on mobile devices Also the live synthesis is only a substitute until it will be possible to render an audio file. It works on my Nexus7 with Chrome Beta but it chokes. @Lazer: in terms of JS13k - you would need to spend 4 kb of your ZIP file - the good thing is that with some hacks it can also provide sounds to your game. + Fixed the switch tab issue using Visibility API - it is impossible to have it playing in background right now @Chris: Yeah the drumkit goes slightly out of rhythm from time to time - the thing is that drums do not use WebAudioAPI - I have to rewrite it. Also depending on machine power the oscillators might be delayed. I have just implement polyphony for greater depth - make sure it ain't get cached - http://chirp.rezoner.net/player/522775be631e72362f000002 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
majman Posted September 6, 2013 Share Posted September 6, 2013 so amazing! ! ! i wish there were tooltips within the app Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rezoner Posted September 7, 2013 Author Share Posted September 7, 2013 I have published explanation for drumkit machine in the composer https://github.com/rezoner/chirp/wiki/Acko-Drumkit-Explained Also there is a new instrument - soundtoy (by Inigo Quilez) which can generate variety of sounds based on mathematical formulas. @majman: yeah I should have thought about tooltips in the first place - would be much easier to implement them - however.... I am all about rewriting things from scratch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rezoner Posted September 7, 2013 Author Share Posted September 7, 2013 Very important news - rendering to WAV is now possible. This is no longer a javascript toy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
