Web Audio Studio – A Visual Debugger for Web Audio API Graphs
Hi HN, I’ve been working on a browser-based tool for exploring and debugging Web Audio API graphs. Web Audio Studio lets you write real Web Audio API code, run it, and see the runtime graph it produces as an interactive visual representation. Instead of mentally tracking connect() calls, you can inspect the actual structure of the graph, follow signal flow, and tweak parameters while the audio is playing. It includes built-in visualizations for common node types — waveforms, filter responses, analyser time and frequency views, compressor transfer curves, waveshaper distortion, spatial…

In plain words
Web Audio Studio is a browser-based tool for developers working with the Web Audio API. It lets users write Web Audio code, execute it, and visualize the resulting audio graph as an interactive diagram. The tool displays real-time signal flow, shows built-in visualizations for different node types like waveforms and filter responses, and allows parameter adjustment during playback. It includes templates for common audio setups and lets developers insert analysis nodes at any point in the audio chain to inspect signals.

Web Audio Studio lets you write real Web Audio API code, run it, and see the runtime graph it produces as an interactive visual representation. Instead of mentally tracking connect() calls, you can inspect the actual structure of the graph, follow signal flow, and tweak parameters while the audio is playing. It is a developer tool for debugging, learning, and exploring complex audio systems.
Explore the Web Audio API visually. Write JavaScript code and instantly see the audio graph, nodes and connections. Interactive examples, real-time parameter control and sharing. The best way to learn Web Audio API.
Write JavaScript — see the audio graph it creates. Understand signal flow, tweak parameters in real time, and share your patch with a link. Runs entirely in your browser. No account required. Write Web Audio API code in the editor, hit Run, and instantly see a live, interactive node graph on the canvas. Every node from the spec is supported. Every AudioParam is a knob you can grab and turn. Hear the result immediately — no need to re-run your code. Click any connection to insert an analyser. See the waveform or frequency spectrum at any point in your audio graph. Modulation connections are shown as dashed lines. Each knob displays its modulation range — see exactly how an LFO shapes your…from webaudio.studio

Hey HN. I built this quick and dirty component to render audio waveforms using WebGPU. I just published it to NPM. It's the first time I use WebGPU and it's been a while since I write shaders. Feedback is very welcome! GitHub: https://github.com/mrkev/webgpu-waveform Examples: https://aykev.dev/webgpu-waveform

Talanoa▲340Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
