Any plans to make it play the chord sequence?



Yes - I've read somewhere it's fairly easy to add timed events using a JQuery animation, so I'll look into doing that. It should be fairly trivial since it's all quarter notes. There's a music library for JavaScript, but timing on anything other than Chrome has been described as sounding like a drunken sailor playing piano, so I don't think I'll get too ambitious. Simple playback of a chord sequence should be more than sufficient.

But first I need to figure out why it's crashing. I think it's because it's not releasing the buffers before it tries to reuse them, so I'm fiddling with stuff to see if I can fix that.

I may eventually get around to figuring out why it doesn't play back in Chrome as well... It's not doing anything particularly clever, just loading a .wav file and playing it back. Perhaps Chrome hasn't implemented the same sort of audio objects.

Actually, Chrome handles the key events slightly differently than Firefox, too. When you drag in Chrome, the pointer turns into a insertion beam, which isn't really what I want. So I'll probably need to look into handling that as well.

Thanks for the feedback!

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?
