Learn how to program JavaScript while creating interactive audio applications with JavaScript for Sound Artists:
Learn to Code With the Web Audio API! William Turner and Steve Leonard showcase the basics of JavaScript language programing so that readers can learn how to build browser based audio applications, such as music synthesizers and drum machines.
The companion website offers further opportunity for growth.Web Audio API instruction includes oscillators, audio file loading and playback, basic audio manipulation, panning and time.
This book encompasses all of the basic features of JavaScript with aspects of the Web Audio API to heighten the capability of any browser.
What Is a Program? A program is any set of instructions that are created or followed. In this book, we focus on writing computer programs, which are lists of instructions that a computer carries out. These instructions can be written and stored in various forms. Some of the first modern computers used punched cards, switches, and cables.
Early analogue music synthesizers were a type of computer that used a patchbay style interface to manually allow a programmer to create specific sounds. What Is JavaScript? JavaScript is a multipurpose programming language initially created to aid developers in adding dynamic features to websites.
The language was initially created in 11 days and released in 1995 by a company called Netscape. Developed by Brendan Eich, its original release name was LiveScript.
When Netscape introduced support for the language in its browser, LiveScript was renamed JavaScript. Although JavaScript is similar in name to the Java programming language, they are completely unrelated. Today, JavaScript is used in everything from robotics to home automation systems
