Envato Tuts+ Courses

Course Description

This course is an introduction to the Web Audio API. You’ll have a chance to explore this new standard for generating real-time audio in the web browser with a real-world example: adding some audio feedback to your website. In this course, you’ll work with oscillators and gain, frequencies and mp3 files to create melodies that will enhance the user experience of your site.

What You’ll Learn

• Understand how audio can enhance the user experience.
• Create a simple online store and add sound to it.
• Learn how different frequencies make different musical notes, as well as how different basic waveforms make different sounds.
• Create a simple “success” melody which plays when a transaction is completed.
• Improve the quality of your sound.
• Learn how to load and play an audio file instead of using oscillators.
