Accessing an OS synthesizer raises the issue of inconsistent synthesis across OSes (which was raised as a priority by Joseph earlier in the thread). Sending untrusted input to that native code also increases attack surface. Building a synthesizer into every browser adds footprint and also raises cross-browser inconsistency issues and new attack surface. It would be really good if there was an open-source Javascript synthesizer that all developers could use (assuming browsers implement a suitable API to play the generated samples). Is there any good code available that could be adapted for this? It would be very helpful if someone investigated the viability of this approach. Rob -- "If we claim to be without sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness. If we claim we have not sinned, we make him out to be a liar and his word is not in us." [1 John 1:8-10]
