    Hi! Creator of TinyRave here. Happy to answer any questions, help with track performance issues, etc.

    Hi Ed, thank you for your project, it is great!
    As I am an active user of http://studio.substack.net/ for live compositions, I wonder if TinyRave / TinyRave Atom module could have a live option, to execute the code as it is edited.

    Hey @raphaelbastide - thanks! This is a tough one to do well. But I think you can get close with the keyboard shortcut to preview. When editing code, you can hit “cmd+enter” (or “ctrl+enter” on windows), and it’ll update the audio.
    And the Atom package uses the same key bindings, which I think is a little more polished than the TinyRave.com text field: https://atom.io/packages/tinyrave

    (I say tough to do well because in my experience live editing becomes a hindrance for longer compositions)

    @raphaelbastide
    Shortcuts are great for editing but not for live coding or performing, or in my case to search for new waves quickly. But I understand that it is not just a small feature :)
    And live edition is one of the great feature of javascript-assisted sound composing

    Hello, what's the license of the musics present on TinyRave ? Can we use them in (free) demos? commercial projects? Thanks

    How do you import samples easily? Like a .wav file from a website to be imported into your script. Just like in Wavepot, but Wavepot only supports files that are on Github.
    It would be easier instead of converting a wave file into an array.
    Trying this from Wavepot

    Ah right now if you want to import samples youll need to roll your own solution. (Like you did in one of your tracks.)
    also just a note im travelling in an area with very little internet access right now, so will be slow to reply

    How do you get inputs such as mouse and keyboard?

    Hello! I'm trying out TinyRave, but it seems like the value passed to buildSample ascends a little too quickly to be seconds?
    also, the 'BuildTrack demo' just says "err is not defined" and doesn't play.

    What happened to TinyRave.com?

    Whoops sorry I let the domain lapse – it's back up now!

    Safari only? Both Chrome and Firefox fail with errors for me
    Anastasia Dunbar
    @AnastasiaDunbar
    Chrome works completely fine for me but Firefox doesn't have importScripts so I cannot use TinyRave functions I've made here. Is there a workaround?
    Anastasia Dunbar
    @AnastasiaDunbar

    (repost where I solved the pitch problem)
    Does your code look like this? (the output audio pitch goes higher when you decrease the sampleRate and vice versa):

    sampleRate=44100;
//inside the audio processor (input is buffer data)
time+=input.length/sampleRate;

    Did you know that you can't change the audioContext's sampleRate? The default is 48000Hz (but not for all browsers probably) so you should do this instead:

    time+=input.length/audioContext.sampleRate;

    Make sure you do time+(sample/audioContext.sampleRate) for the DSP output data.

    As @omgitsraven said that "it seems like the value passed to buildSample ascends a little too quickly to be seconds?".
    A workaround for the people using TinyRave do time*=44100/48000;.

    Now I have tinnitus.
    I'm glad I learned using audio processing in vanilla JavaScript.
    Ed McManus
    @emcmanus
    Hey @AnastasiaDunbar ! This looks like a workaround for downsampling a 48000Hz script to 44100? (44100 is what I use in the tinyrave AudioContext)
    And yeah mistakes when doing DSP in JS are painful. Hopefully it means you make fewer mistakes :-P

    Hi! I'm pretty new to this but i've been trying to use tinyrave in Atom. I've installed the package and can make a sine wave to sound but when adding certain types of example code I get this error:

    Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'remove' of undefined
    /Users/bkwrm/.atom/packages/AtomPackage/node_modules/atom-message-panel/lib/MessagePanelView.js:189
    Show Stack Trace
    The error was thrown from the TinyRave package. You can help by creating an issue. Please explain what actions triggered this error.

    Once I get this error tinyrave doesn't work at all in Atom until I quit and restart again. This seems really cool so I'd love to be able to get some help. Thanks in advance for your time.

    Hey @johnranck ! I didn't think anyone was using that plugin :-P I just took a look and it appears a lot has changed in the ~2yrs since it was written, so it may not be a simple fix. I'll try to take another look this weekend, and will let you know if I modernize the plugin. In the mean time thanks for filing the issue, that was helpful! Without that plugin you may want to experiment using Atom, and copy/paste periodically into the editor on Tinyrave.com. Not ideal for quick experiments, so lemme see if I can get the plugin working. Thanks!
