A web-app to play with different types of sound sources and effects
Based on ToneJS
Visual music language interactive education, research and practice tools.
Chromatone is based on a scientific view on human perception of colors, sounds and relationships between them. Red is first visible frequency of light spectrum, that we can join in a wheel and equally divide into 12 main colors. A is first among those 12 notes that equally divide cyclical acoustic octaves. So we come up with a connection of two sense systems, that happens in our brain. And it appears to be a great tool to better feel and understand music, visual design and beyond.
We develop a toolset for anyone who wants to see music and hear colors by themselves. Essentially it's an artifical synesthesia development toolkit. And you can use it to learn and teach, explore and compose, memorize and visualize music and even convert pictures to melodies.
The project is non-commercial and is in early development state now. It requires a lot of coding, testing and debugging, and also some architectural thought. Chromatone apps are an effort to construct a really flexible, yet simple cross-platform audio-visual interactive component system, that can be used to build a big range of complex education and exploration tools by music and design enthusiasts.
