Is there one? I haven't seen one, nor a comment to the effect that one exists, or an explanation of why there isn't one. Isn't this self-evident? Any solution which involves additional memcopy calls during the normal use of the API will have an inherant and known performance cost at the point of the memcopy. Additionally, there is the ongoing performance cost of having duplicate, in-memory copies of audio data, as well as the additional GC cost of those extra copies. That said, it would be very easy to demonstrate: in the hypothetical test case, create a new ArrayBuffer from source data before passing it into the API. I.e., > sourceNode.buffer = buffer becomes: > sourceNode.buffer = buffer.slice(0) -Jer
