If you do find compelling use cases, _and_ can get vendor interest in solving those use cases, then I guess an extension spec would be the way to go. However, IMHO specs don't always drive buy-in, buy-in drives specs. Can compile a list of issues and bugs relevant to Web Speech API and Web Audio API working in conjunction. Those requests have been ongoing for several years now. In brief, - https://stackoverflow.com/questions/18902789/can-web-speech-api-used-in-conjunction-with-web-audio-api - https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-speech-api/2017Jun/0000.html - https://github.com/WICG/speech-api/issues/10 - https://github.com/WebAudio/web-audio-api/issues/1764 - https://stackoverflow.com/a/48504311 - https://github.com/WICG/speech-api/issues/56 - https://github.com/WICG/speech-api/issues/69 - https://github.com/guest271314/SpeechSynthesisSSMLParser It depends on how thorough and lengthy you want the list to be to satisfy the as-yet undefined term "compelling". Notice the local direct text to `MediaStreamTrack` conversion implication of the last list item. `MediaStreamTrack` can certainly be useful in the domain of TTS/SST. -- GitHub Notification of comment by guest271314 Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/mediacapture-main/pull/651#issuecomment-566301849 using your GitHub account
