Synth

For <synth-blam>, the detune vaue is applied to all of its subject operators. For example, two <carrier-blam> elements and a <modulator-blam> element, with different frequencies, inside <synth-blam> will each be detuned by the same amount relative to the value set here.

A space-separated list of notes (with the numbers representing the octaves) to be played where the play() method is fired omitting its first “note” argument. By default, notes are chosen at random from this array. Unless there is only one note, or there are multiples of the same note included, no note is ever played twice in a row.

Whether to play the notes at random (false) or in order (true).

The overall output level of the element.

The element to which the output is connected. This should rarely be changed, since SynthBase-derived elements have good sensible defaults.

Fired whenever play() is executed. Contains the time data property as standard (which is used in synchronization by various elements). Proxy for subject operators’ play() methods.

Fired whenever stop() is executed. Contains the time data property as standard (which is used in synchronization by various elements). Proxy for subject operators’ stop() methods.

note: The note (e.g. D#4) to play. time: When, relative to the context’s currentTime, to play the sound. Immediately, if not set.

Plays each of the subject/descendant operator elements simultaneously. To put it another way, makes a synthy sound.

time: When, relative to the context’s currentTime, to play the sound. Immediately, if not set.

Triggers the release ramp for notes currently playing. This is applied automatically at the start of each play() but may be needed for manual intervention too.
