lame-wasm

LAME compiled into freestanding WASM with a TypeScript/JavaScript bridge API.

Installation and Example Usage

npm install lame-wasm

import { init } from "lame-wasm";

async function record() {
  // Mono 48kbps PCM input, 128kbps output
  const lame = await init({
    channels: 1,
    sampleRate: 48_000, // Perhaps from a `new AudioContext().sampleRate`...
    kilobitRate: 128,
  });

  const chunks = [];
  chunks.push(lame.encodeFloat(pcmData));
  chunks.push(lame.flush()); // finish with a flush

  const mp3 = new Blob(chunks, { type: "audio/mp3" });
}
