Tone.js is an open source Web Audio framework for creating interactive music in the browser. It has advanced scheduling capabilities, synths, effects and more.

Tone.js is built to be useful and familiar to both musicians and audio programmers. It has common DAW (digital audio workstation) features for those looking to schedule events and tinker with pre-built synths and effects. There’s also a great selection of high-performance building blocks for signal-processing programmers familiar with languages like Max/MSP. With Tone.js they can create their own synthesizers, effects, and complex control signals.

Features

  • Scheduling (transport, loop)
  • Instruments
  • Effects
  • Sources ( Tone.Oscillator, Tone.Player, Tone.Noise, etc.)
  • Signals (audio-rate signal control)
  • AudioContext
  • MIDI (files should be converted to JSON first)
  • Native Web Audio Nodes, which allows Tone.js to work well on both desktop and mobile browsers
  • Extensive test suite
