Audio Web applications

By Noah | May 26, 2010

By way of Slashdot, it looks like the folks who are building the experimental audio support in Firefox are making really fine progress.  You get to manipulate the raw audio data using Javascript, more or less in real time.  They’ve even had some success with doing the FFT’s in Javascript (I didn’t expect that would be practical with this generation of CPUs and language interpreters).  This is going to open up a lot of really interesting audio applications on the Web.
