AVIarts has specialized experience in developing music and sound applications for the Adobe Flash player and HTML 5.

Example Sound Applications:

  • Roger Zahab music preview system
    HTML 5 audio preview system, with fall back to Flash for composer Roger Zahab. Users can listen to mp3 excerpts from an embedded HTML/Javascript based user interface. This is a more seamless experience for listening to music compared to the typical mp3 preview system wich launches a 3rd party player such as Windows Media or Quicktime and takes the user away from the web site browsing experience.

  • Abadja Rhythm
    You can interact with a percussion ensemble from Ghana West Africa. You can change the volume of each percussion part to better hear and understand the role each individual instrument plays in the ensemble.

  • Digital Counterpoint
    You are the conductor for this performance of Digital Counterpoint. Unlike a conventional concert work, you can create your own variation on the composition by directing instrumentalists in the digital orchestra to play at different volumes or rest.

  • FlashSound JavaScript API
    (No longer under development) The FlashSound API (FSAPI) is a freely available, open source JavaScript library that enables developers and musicians to easily add backing music, interactive sound and streaming voice narration to a conventional web site.
