Overview

XSound gives Web Developers Powerful Audio Features Easily !
In concrete, XSound is useful to implement the following features.

- Create Sound
- Play the One-Shot Audio
- Play the Audio
- Play the Media
- Streaming (by WebRTC)
- MIDI (by Web MIDI API)
- MML (Music Macro Language)
- Effectors (Compressor / Wah / Equalizer / Tremolo / Phaser / Chorus / Delay / Reverb ... etc)
- Visualization (Overview in Time Domain / Time Domain / Spectrum)
- Multi-Track Recording (Create WAVE file)
- Audio Streaming
- Visual Audio Sprite

XSound don't depend on other libraries or frameworks (For example, jQuery, React).

Getting Started

In case of using as full stack (For example, use oscillator) ...

``JavaScript
X('oscillator').setup([true, true, false, false]).ready(2, 5).start([440, 880]).stop();
`

or, in case of using as module base (For example, use chorus effector) ...

`JavaScript
// The instance of AudioContext
const context = X.get();

// Create the instance of Chorus that is defined by XSound
const chorus = new X.Chorus(context);

const oscillator = context.createOscillator();

// The instance that is defined by XSound has connectors for input and output
oscillator.connect(chorus.INPUT);
chorus.OUTPUT.connect(context.destination);

// Set parameters for chorus
chorus.param({
time : 0.025,
depth: 0.5,
rate : 2.5,
mix : 0.5
});

// Activate
chorus.activate();

oscillator.start(0);
`

XSound enable to using the following classes (Refer to API Documentation for details).

`TypeScript
X.Analyser(context: AudioContext);
X.Recorder(context: AudioContext);

// Effectors
X.Autopanner(context: AudioContext);
X.BitCrusher(context: AudioContext);
X.Chorus(context: AudioContext);
X.Compressor(context: AudioContext);
X.Delay(context: AudioContext);
X.Equalizer(context: AudioContext);
X.Filter(context: AudioContext);
X.Flanger(context: AudioContext);
X.Fuzz(context: AudioContext);
X.Listener(context: AudioContext);
X.NoiseGate(context: AudioContext);
X.NoiseSuppressor(context: AudioContext);
X.OverDrive(context: AudioContext);
X.Panner(context: AudioContext);
X.Phaser(context: AudioContext);
X.PitchShifter(context: AudioContext);
X.Preamp(context: AudioContext);
X.Reverb(context: AudioContext);
X.Ringmodulator(context: AudioContext);
X.Stereo(context: AudioContext);
X.Tremolo(context: AudioContext);
X.VocalCanceler(context: AudioContext);
X.Wah(context: AudioContext);
`

Demo

XSound.app uses this library.

Now, I'm creating website for Web Audio API. Please refer to the following site for understanding API Documentation.

Installation

`bash
$ npm install --save xsound
`

or,

`bash
$ pnpm install xsound
`

Usage

In case of using ES Modules,

`JavaScript
import { XSound, X } from 'xsound';
`

If SSR (Server-Side Rendering), use dynamic imports,

`JavaScript
async () => {
const { XSound, X } = await import('xsound');
};
`

In case of using CDN,

`HTML

`

Setup

$3

`bash
$ git clone git@github.com:Korilakkuma/XSound.git
$ cd XSound
$ npm install
$ npm run build # for build WebAssembly Modules
$ npm run dev
$ open http://localhost:8080/playground/
`

$3

`bash
$ git clone git@github.com:Korilakkuma/XSound.git
$ cd XSound
$ npm install
$ npm run build # for build WebAssembly Modules
$ npm run watch
$ docker compose up -d --build
$ open http://localhost:8080/playground/
`

$3

Use WebAssembly Modules on v4 or later.
Therefore, it is required to set up emsdk (Refer to details).

`bash
$ git clone https://github.com/emscripten-core/emsdk.git # Use an another directory excepte XSound directory
$ cd emsdk
$ ./emsdk install latest
$ ./emsdk activate latest
$ source ./emsdk_env.sh
$ cd /${path}/XSound

If error occurred, execute softwareupdate --install-rosetta, then retry (in case of using macOS)

XSound Playground (Watch by YouTube).

Migration to v3

Please refer to API Documentation for details.

$3

`JavaScript
// Bad (v2 or earlier)
X('audio').module('panner').param({ coneinnerangle: 240 });

// Good (v3)
X('audio').module('panner').param({ coneInnerAngle: 240 });
`

$3

`JavaScript
// Bad (v2 or earlier)
X('oscillator').get(0).param('type', 'sawtooth');

// Good (v3)
X('oscillator').get(0).param({ type: 'sawtooth' });
`

$3

`JavaScript
if ((type === 'sine') || (type === 'square') || (type === 'sawtooth') || (type === 'triangle')) {
X('oscillator').get(0).param({ type });
}
`

Migration to v3.1.x or later

If use bundle tool and compress class names such as webpack and terser-webpack-plugin,
must add the following options (because of using inline AudioWorkletProcessor).

`JavaScript
new TerserWebpackPlugin({
// ... other options
terserOptions: {
keep_classnames: /^.*?Processor$/
}
})
``
