WebPd is a highly modular compiler for audio programming language Pure Data allowing to run .pd patches on web pages. It converts the audio graph and processing objects from a patch into plain human-readable JavaScript or WebAssembly which can then be integrated directly into any web application.

You might also be interested in the very different Pure Data (http://puredata.info/) environment, which is also free and open-source. It uses a visual programming approach, which many people like but if you are already a programmer it might seem inconvenient in comparison. Source: about 1 year ago
Personally I got started with pure data, which is open source and a good place to learn DSP basics. I think there are even a few wrapper libraries for building things into apps (libpd, mobmuplat, to name a few). Source: about 1 year ago
> Midi being an “artist” tool places it more as a medium like paint. I’ve used MIDI “as paint”. Written music using code to MIDI(1), and wrote “cross instrument” music, ie using my keyboard as drum machine. But these days MIDI is chiefly an archival method for me. Every time I touch my keyboard is recorded, is much smaller than a comparable audio recording, by design “forced fidelity” in the recording, and I am... - Source: Hacker News / 7 days ago

> I'm fluent in Python but find the use of colons is the real sticking point. The you'd probably have hated its predecessor which was all about the parentheses: https://overtone.github.io/ It's too bad that superficial stuff like which characters you need to type is holding you back. Getting used to Ruby when you're familiar with Python is no big deal. I would just stick with it. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago
There's a project you may find interesting: https://overtone.github.io/. Besides sound/synthesis stuff, it has https://github.com/overtone/midi-clj library, which allows you to write MIDI as lisp (Clojure, to be precise) code. Emacs has great support for Clojure programming (via Cider), and REPL-based development is perfect for writing music. Source: over 1 year ago
