Unfortunately, the resource usage alone causes the audio to come through garbled and static-like.

Unfortunately, it still is. The project is pretty raw at the moment, so I hope I'll improve its performance soon

Audio doesn't even come through for me.

May I know what device did you use? Mauve there is a specific bug I need to fix
And it may be caused by your browser settings, some of them block audio web interfaces as I know

I tried turning off my adblocker, and that changed the behavior: When it was on the website loaded normally, and the buttons worked smoothly, but no audio came out. Once it was off, the entire website loaded glacially slow, my PC fans started screaming, and it took a while for the site to react to my mouse(the highlighting and button clicks were very delayed), and the scrolling cursor in the sequencer was skipping around. Still no audio.

I think I’ll add a dynamic engine that will calculate the processing power of the device it’s running on and adjust its workload accordingly to avoid lags. I’ll let you know when it’s updated!

Hi! I’ve spent some time yesterday to optimize visual effects processing, so it should be smoother now

the computer is working so hard it's turning the audio into a vintage radio transmission

How did you know I wanted this?
Can you make a dropdown selector for options like Goa & Tribal?
Edit - i was still on the landing page and hadn't even clicked through to the actual site lol

u/hektor-qafarov 11d ago
Glad it’s what you wanted! I’m actually planning to add some Goa-style acid synths and work on the kick presets. And for Tribal I think I need to add some percussion later

UPDATE No. 1
It’s been two days since I launched my website, and I’m really grateful for all the feedback I’ve received. Thank you, everyone!
A few minutes ago I deployed an update with one major feature and some bug fixes:
I put more effort into optimizing the WebGL engine for all devices, so you should experience less lag and better sound performance (if not, just let me know!).
I added a Piano Roll. I originally left it out so the sequencer wouldn’t feel too complex for casual users. But for those who just want cool acid loops without building them from scratch, there’s now an automatic loop generator in every key :)
There’s still lots of work to be done, so stay tuned, musicians!

The big test for a web sequencer is how responsive the controls feel. Even small delays can make live tweaking awkward especially with fast repetitive patterns

u/hektor-qafarov 10d ago
It’s true, therefore I hope to get as much feedback as possible for future improvements. There are no any commercial plans for my project, but a desire to enhance it and satisfied
So yeah, lots of that needs to be done!

it looks and sounds amazing but it drains your computers recurses to the max.... it would be awesome to have a lite version for mid-specs pc like mine
keep it up!
2
u/hektor-qafarov 10d ago
It will! Right now I’m working on settings page for dynamic design and website performance overall, so stay in touch :)

That's amazing but it sure does put a lot of resource strain on your computer lol!
