Is it a banger?

answer. yes.

This is a WebAudio API library written with Typescript

infinite polyphony! randomized sounds!

Usage

Banger

• single soundfile player
• pitch variation
• polyphonic!

Example

const banger = new Banger({
  name: 'Kick',
  arrayBuffer: await getWav(
    'https://cwilso.github.io/MIDIDrums/sounds/drum-samples/CR78/kick.wav',
  ),
})

banger.loading // state while sources is loading (can be used for ui loading screens)

banger.play() // plays the sound!

MultiBanger

• takes a folder of sounds
• randomizes playing of said sounds
• does the things the Banger does
• is dank
• probably needs some kind of optimization

Example

const files = [
  'https://cwilso.github.io/MIDIDrums/sounds/drum-samples/CR78/kick.wav',
  'https://cwilso.github.io/MIDIDrums/sounds/drum-samples/CR78/snare.wav',
  'https://cwilso.github.io/MIDIDrums/sounds/drum-samples/CR78/hihat.wav',
  'https://cwilso.github.io/MIDIDrums/sounds/drum-samples/CR78/tom1.wav',
  'https://cwilso.github.io/MIDIDrums/sounds/drum-samples/CR78/tom2.wav',
  'https://cwilso.github.io/MIDIDrums/sounds/drum-samples/CR78/tom3.wav',
]

const multiBanger = new MultiBanger({
  name: 'drumz',
  arrayBuffers: await getWavs(files),
})

multiBanger.loading // while sources are loading.

multiBanger.play() // plays a random sound!

Additional Parameters

along with the basic usage you see above, both players takes the following params in the constructor

type PlayerParams = {
  volume?: number // set the volume of the player 0..1
  reverse?: boolean // play audio in reverse
  loop?: boolean // play audio in a loop!
  drift?: number // detunes the audio this random amount each play
}

Spatial Audio (wip)

currently only 2d panning, attenuation, and head simulation, but it's still fun to use.

const ttib = new SpatialLooper({
  name: 'Looper: Tezos Till I Bezos',
  loop: true,
  arrayBuffer: await getWav(map['tezos'].src),
  onLoaded: () => console.log('>> ttib loaded'),
  onEnded: () => console.log('>> ttib sound ended'),
  onFail: console.error,
  // @ts-ignore
  worldPosition: state.sourceWorldPosition,
  // @ts-ignore
  audibleDistance: 100, // distance in units until audio is not heard
})

// if audio emitter position has changed
ttib.setWorldPosition(
  sourcePosition, // [x, y, z] (y is up)
)

// upon changing of listener position
const [angle, distance] = ttib.get3dValues(
  listenerWorldPosition,
  listenerWorldOrientation
)

ttib.setSpatialValues(angle, distance)
